For this little girl, there’s nothing more important than keeping her best friend healthy. She always makes sure that her dog, Nala, is in tip-top condition by feeding her the best food, taking her for walks, and even giving her full-blown exams.

She decided that Nala needed a checkup one day, so the patient pup settled in and let her buddy start her veterinary training early. Needless to say, this pair is beyond adorable.

She’s clearly a vet in the making, and she has the most helpful patient in the world!
