When the rain is falling outside it gives you a chance to catch up on movies and videos. I saw this Nat Geo story a few years ago about an orangutan (Suryia) and a hound dog (Roscoe). They are adorable together. It never gets old to watch over again. There are other videos online but they are too long to share here. I looked for one that wasn't very long. Hopefully you will watch these two and it will bring a smile for you, like it always does for me. I am an animal lover. I love seeing and reading about stories like this one. Enjoy!
Original story from NationalGeographic.com; see their youtube video called The Orangutan and the Hound: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d79ArrL8VRg Song: I On...

I think I saw that one years ago. It sounds like a movie I should watch again.

Yes about four years ago and I still love it. Not a movie, just a video.

I find it quite amazing how these great apes have companions like dogs and cats and they treat them so kindly

I love animals and am always amazed at the "friendships" they have and how they look after one another. Animals in a lot of cases are so much cooler than people. lol

I know it makes me smile and reminds me that we, as humans, should be doing the same thing. Overlook differences.

I won't be watchign the video, but I will remark that I love seeing odd friendships with animals. I saw a monkey and a cat on facebook the other day. I'm going to be running out the door soon.

Nat Geo is a terrific channel to watch. I enjoy watching how wild animals survive in nature and raise their young. This looks like a really good episode.

Yes it is, and this one was very poplar. There was a commercial made about these two. This is just a 3 minute video.
