Anouk (26) knew from previous meetings that her lively Goldendoodle Juna and her parents' old Golden Retriever Vince didn't get along well in the past.

The little female was simply too demanding for the 13-year-old male.

Last month, the Dutch woman had to resort to her parents' help again – but when Anouk saw the photos they later sent her of the two dogs, she could hardly believe her eyes.

"Now she gets really excited every time we go there and doesn't want to come home with us," the dog owner continued.

"It makes us so happy to see them become familiar around each other... Vince was getting real old, laying around all day but when Juna's around he gets really active! We hope that they will have a long time together."
