A couple who owns a farm in Arizona decided to rescue an orphaned baby goat, but it was their deaf dog who stepped up and decided to adopt the kid.
The couple, known as “Farm of Milk and Honey” on TikTok shared the heartwarming story of how their deaf Pit Bull dog, Evie, decided to adopt an orphaned baby goat, later named by the couple as Branch.
On November 24, Farm of Milk and Honey shared a video of an orphaned baby goat on their TikTok account.
The caption on the video read, “PLEASE watch this video for 60 seconds so my wife thinks bringing THIS home was a good idea.”
In the video, the husband explains how a lady down the neighboring property called asking for help with an orphaned baby goat.
“With the owner having very few options… of course we stepped in to help,” confirming that they have decided to officially adopt the kid.
When Branch arrived at the farm, the dogs became very fond of him, and so did he!
“He really likes the dogs. And Evie is thrilled to have a new baby,” with video clips of Evie sniffing Branch.
Furthermore, the couple revealed that Branch will have a whole pack of dogs to protect him until he’s old enough to join the farm’s goat herd.

In a follow up video, the couple reveals, “When we brought this orphaned goat home, our ultimate hope was that one of the female dogs would claim him… And Evie did right away.”
In the video, Branch is seen taking “his bottle like a champ” and is revealed to just spend his whole day by Evie’s side.
The story of Evie and Branch has gone viral on TikTok with one of their videos reaching 2.1 million views and 230,000 likes.
Farm of Milk and Honey further shared that Evie is absolutely loving being a foster mom to baby Branch. The kid would follow Evie everywhere and is revealed to be constantly under Evie.
“He loves all of the other dogs too, but Evie is a clear favorite,” the couple explains.
Even though Evie is deaf, she doesn’t let this stop her from keeping the farm interesting and making sure she keeps her owners on their toes!
Her huge personality certainly makes up for the lack of hearing! Her owners reveal some of her best farm moments, which include drinking milk directly from the farm cows, befriending coyotes and getting bit in the ear in return, stealing the kids’ snacks, and getting bullied by farm animals.
But more than the mischief she gets into, her owners highlight how big her heart is and how she welcomes the strays that her owners bring into their farm.
She even adopted a sick calf once before baby Branch came into her life!
And because everyone was curious if the pair will stay together or not, the couple confirmed that “Yes, Evie and Branch will get to stay together forever here.”
The couple wrote, “Evie is loving all of the attention and positive comments!! Thank you all so much! Evie and Branch are doing AMAZING!”
