Another amazing thing about this friendship is that Moonpie does what the dogs do. For example, Moonpie only “uses the bathroom” while she is outside. This is how the dogs taught her. This is one of the weirdest friendships I’ve ever seen, but it’s also a great example of how friends don’t care about their differences.
