Thereโ€™s nothing more precious than the love between a boy and his first pet dog. But one pair of new friends has something extra special in commonโ€”and miraculously found each other when they needed it most.

Bentley Boyers is a 2-year-old from Jackson, Michigan, who was born with a cleft lipโ€”a birth defect involving a split opening in the top lip. While heโ€™s undergone surgeries to fix his lip, his parents say it hasnโ€™t been easy.

โ€œWe had to sit him up and feed him and hold his lip together in order for him to eat, so it was a process,โ€ his mother Ashley told WILX.

But last week, something amazing happened: Bentleyโ€™s dad Brandon went to a shelter intending to adopt chickens, but instead spotted a two-month-old rescue dogโ€ฆ who happened to also have a cleft palate.

Stunned, he called his wife, and they both agreed they had to have the dog for Bentley.

Itโ€™s clear that Bentley is thrilled to have his new puppy. Photos show him happily petting and kissing the dog after meeting her for the first time.

Itโ€™s an unlikely miracle: the shelter says they donโ€™t see many dogs with cleft lips, so itโ€™s just a lucky turn of events that they happened to be there at the right time.

They know that Bentley having a dog with a matching birth defect will be great for him. He still has to undergo bone-grafting surgery to fix his lip, but heโ€™ll at least have a dog who understands what heโ€™s going through.

โ€œTo see him have something in common with a puppy means a lot โ€™cause he can grow up and understand that he and his puppy both have something that they can share in common,โ€ Ashley said.

Likewise the puppy will have a caring owner who will love her no matter what she looks like.

โ€œHer disability is really not holding her back, and as she grows, theyโ€™ll be able to see more if thereโ€™s any change that has to do with that. But sheโ€™s really doing well,โ€ Animal Services Director Lydia Sattler told WILX.

โ€œShe might look a little different than a normal dog would, but itโ€™s not slowing her down at all.โ€

โ€œThey instantly loved each other,โ€ the shelter wrote on Facebook. โ€œWe wish many years of joy as this special pair grow up together!โ€

How precious! Itโ€™s always important to have someone in your life who understands you. Weโ€™re so glad this perfect pair found each other and will be happy together for years to come.
