Everybody needs a little (or a lot) of love in their life, and dogs are certainly no exception! Unfortunately, not everyone understands this fundamental concept, which is why we often hear about terrible cases of animal abuse happening around the world. One poor animal that went through such abuse is a beautiful dog called Nora, who went through such a horrible ordeal that she is now scared of practically every living thing.
There is, however, one exception... Apparently, the only person that Nora feels comfortable around is her new owner's infant son, Archie. According to Archie's mom, Elizabeth, the pair of them are inseparable and says that "if Archie is having a bath, Nora is lying on the bathmat waiting for him to get out. If I’m nursing him she wants up on my lap, too.”
Luckily for us, Elizabeth has captured plenty of adorable photos of the two of them together, and here are some of the best:
