Name a more iconic duo . You ca n’t .
We ’ve all seen unlikely friendships form in nature — thegolden retriever and goose , theChiweenie and the tortoise , thecheetah and the Labrador . But we have a newfangled favourite distich : Ava theRottweilerand Blue the emu , who absolutely delight us onTikTok .
They met when their possessor , Jennifer Walters , co - founding father ofGold Colt Rescuein Texas , brought baby blasphemous base . He ’d been buy as an egg on eBay and needed to be rehomed when he was born . Walters foot him up and planned to search after the minuscule electromagnetic unit in her nursing home until he was large enough to join the other barnyard animals outside .

Was Walters worried about her young Rottweiler meeting a baby emu ? Not at all — though of grade , she was conservative as she introduced them .
" Ava is dead the most gentle fauna there is , just the most loving dog , " she tells Daily Paws . " And she loves babies — anything infant . " Who does n’t ?
After save the two dissever but able to see each other initially , Walters devote in to Ava ’s whining and have her meet the emu . uncalled-for to say , she was n’t surprised when Ava lap Blue " from head to toe . "
" She immediately adopt that shuttlecock , " Walters say with a laugh . " Ava became obsessed with him . "
The touch was reciprocal . Blue seeminglyimprintedon Ava — meaning Blue was basically attached to Ava ’s hip and perhaps thought he was a dog for a while — and the eternal sleep is story .
They sleep with taking walks and nap together , but most of their favorite activities involve run around the dimension , with Blue sprinting after Ava at every opportunity . Ourfavorite Blue and Ava activeness to view — on TikTok where the brace has draw millions of horizon — is when Blue gets so excited , he get thezoomies . It ’s just as precious and screaming when an emu races around uncontrollably as when a Canis familiaris does it !
Now that Blue is a bit liberal — at 2 years old , he ’s about 6 feet tall with what Walters describes as " velociraptor feet"—the two are n’t together quite as much . But their bond is still unbreakable , and they spend as much time together as possible out of doors .
What ’s next for Blue and Ava ? Not quite the big screen door , but Walters does plan to keep documenting their adventures , both onTikTokand in the form of a children ’s Holy Scripture , which will spotlight the pair ’s loving and chaotic friendly relationship . We ’ll be the first in line !
