Horse Gets Reunited With the Bear He Was Given as an Abandoned Foal – and His Reaction is Too Sweet

If you’ve been an animal lover for your entire life, it’s highly likely that you had more stuffed animals than you knew what to do with. After all, if you were influenced by Pixar’s Toy Story, then maybe you also held the belief that your toys came to life, while you were asleep or out of the house, very near and dear to your heart. …Anyone?

But, like Andy in Toy Story,  out of all the toys in your collection, you had a favorite. One that you’ve had for as long as you remember — a toy that’s been lost at theme parks, dragged through the dirt, and everything in between because you two were absolutely inseparable. And even when you grew older and toys left your life (hopefully via a thrift store), that childhood favorite stuck with you because good memories stick with you.

Breeze was abandoned as a foal for being too weak. Luckily, he was rescued, brought to the Mare and Foal Sanctuary, and given a big teddy bear named Buttons to comfort him while he recovered. 

Awww!

Fast-forward to three years later. Breeze is a healthy young horse, thanks to his rescuers – and he was recently reunited with his beloved teddy. As you can see, there’s been no love lost between them.

According to Deputy Yard Manager Nicola Anstey, “Breeze decided to give Buttons a tour of his new stable and carried him around by his ear.” Sounds a lot like a child dragging their favorite toy everywhere! After that, he spent the entire afternoon snoozing and cuddling.
