This monkey adopts the puppy and cares for it like its own.

Do monkeys keep dogs?

While it might seem unlikely, there are actually a number of reports of monkeys keeping dogs as pets. In some cases, the monkey will adopt a dog that is smaller than itself, and the two will form a close bond. The monkey will often groom the dog and even share its food with it. In other cases, the monkey will simply treat the dog as a playmate, roughhousing with it in a friendly way. While it is not clear why monkeys keep dogs, it is perhaps not so surprising when one considers that monkeys are social creatures who crave companionship. By keeping a dog, the monkey is able to fulfill its need for companionship while also gaining a loyal friend.

While there are many reasons why a monkey might like a dog, it ultimately boils down to individual preference. Some monkeys might be drawn to the dog’s loyalty and friendly nature, while others might enjoy the challenge of playing with a canine companion. In any case, the bond between monkey and dog is sure to be a special one.
