Jan. 26 (UPI) -- A farmer in Thailand captured video of a mother pig allowing a thirsty puppy to nurse alongside her similarly-sized piglets.

The video, filmed last week at a farm in Korat, shows a litter of piglets nursing from their mother in an outdoor enclosure.

A small dog feeds alongside the piglets with the mother pig apparently not caring or failing to notice.

The puppy gets a little greedy and snaps at some of the piglets that come too close, but goes back to drinking and allows the piglets to feed alongside it.

It was unclear whether the puppy had been orphaned or abandoned by its own mother.
