We know dogs are capable of becoming friends with some unlikely animals, and there are lots of videos out there as proof, but this one is a little different for one adorable reason…

The sweet dog tries his best to carefully pet his bird friend knowing that he can’t be too rough with it. I’ve never seen anything like it! For once, a dog who’s actually aware of its own size.
