Sometimes friendship comes from the unlikeliest of places.
Guerreirinho (meaning Little Warrior) the donkey passed away this week, after he was hit by a car and left for dead on the side of the road last month.
But the donkey saw out his last days with the support of a new friend: a stray white puppy.
Guerreirinho was found laying on the side of the road by Stefanie Rodrigues and Zenith Gurgel, who frequently care for injured or abandoned animals they find in the area.
