In this world, no love is greater than a mother’s love for her children. She is often willing to sacrifice everything to ensure their happiness and well-being.
This is also evident in a dog’s bond with her puppies. During the early stages of their growth, a mother dog’s instinct is so strong that she puts aside everything else to care for her little ones.
She expresses her boundless love in many ways, some so heartwarming that they touch countless hearts. This story is a beautiful example of such a touching moment.

When Kate brought Koda home, she immediately knew this dog was special. A mix of Bernese Mountain Dog and Great Pyrenees, Koda was overflowing with love from the very beginning.
But it wasn’t until she gave birth to 13 puppies that Kate truly witnessed the depth of love Koda carried in her heart.
Koda expressed this love through a simple yet touching act that moved Kate so much she had to capture it on video and share it with her TikTok followers.
The video, which quickly went viral, shows Koda gently picking up a stuffed rabbit toy from the hallway and carrying it to her puppies’ cozy bed, wanting them to enjoy its softness.

At one point, Kate returns the toy to its rightful place, but Koda isn’t willing to part with it. Seeing it as a symbol of love for her puppies, she quickly finds the stuffed rabbit again and carries it back to their bed, determined to keep it close to her little ones.
