They say opposites attract and this cute story is even more proof of that old saying.

A 5-year-old pit bull named Ashlyn served as a guardian for a raccoon named Eto and ended up teaching the little guy the skills he would need to survive in the wild including what to look out for when they’re out in the forest, including how to fish and swim.

Eto was only a baby raccoon when he was found in a tire wheel and it was obvious he was underweight. A woman rescued him and the relationship with Ashlyn blossomed.
