Picasso, a five-year-old dog, was ššØš«š§ with a crooked nose, while his new best friend Newt, one, was ššØš«š§ without an upper jaw after being bitten by his mother when he was aĀ Ā puppy.
The love between two canines with severe facial deformities is unshakable.
The strong connection between Picasso and Newt was revealed by Liesl Wilhardt, 53, founder and director of Lovable Dog Rescue.
Although both canines have significant facial deformities, they live contentedly on 55 acres of property in Oregon, USA.
Liesl took Picasso in 2017 when his brother died suddenly, then Newt in 2021, and the two immediately became inseparable.
Picasso, now five, was ššØš«š§ with a crooked nose, while Newt, then one, no longer had an upper jaw when his mother bit him.
Despite the daily difficulties they endure due to their malformations and Newtās medical problems, the couple now live a very happy existence.
We watch their relationship in a sequence of films showing their regular activities, such as feeding, playing, walking and picking berries.
āIt was a wonder that Picasso lived as a newššØš«š§,ā Liesl remarked, ābecause he would even have found it difficult to breastfeed his mother.ā
Newt has endured several other challenges, most of them unrelated to his missing upper jaw
Picasso and Newt both like people, so they are outgoing and seek attention in public, and they like to welcome people. Most people immediately take a second shot, and then look at the dogs, trying to figure out what they are witnessing.
āThey are not in agony; they have learned to live with their physical limits and can accomplish practically anything they desire.ā
āFrom the beginning, Picasso has loved Newt because he likes to play and wrestle and he is a darling.
āOur bond became stronger as Newt got older.ā
āI really like Picasso and Newt; they are both wonderfully affectionate, cheerful, intelligent and fun dogs.ā
