All you need is the love between this monkey and his adopted puppy

Who does not love puppies? It seems everyone in the animal kingdom loses it over puppies and this monkey is no exception.

Recently photographs of a monkey holding onto a puppy were captured in Rode, India, reports Time according to Mashable.

The heartwarming friendship/adoption sent waves of sweetness across the Internet and softened hearts like melted butter.

The Facebook posts have been liked over 20,000 times and probably repurposed for countless phone backgrounds.

The adorable friendship is a tribute to the power of animal compassion.

A Facebook post from The Logical Indian said the fatherly monkey "makes sure the [puppy's] stomach is full before eating himself" and "protects the pup from other stray dogs."
