"The day that Haachi met Owen was utterly incredible. It was electric. It was spiritual... they immediately understood they were going to work together as a team." ~ Colleen Drummond, Owen's stepmother. Owen is a 7-year old boy with a rare syndrome that leaves his muscles in a constant state of tension. Haatchi is an Anatolian Shepherd that was left to die on the railroad tracks, but managed to escape with a severed leg and tail. The shy little boy and the giant three-legged dog have been best friends since the day they met. "Everything changed in my life with him," says Owen of Haatchi. Drummond adds: "Owen and Haatchi simplify everything with pure love."

    The "connection" between Owen and Haatchi tells us that life can only have meaning and value if we realize and manifest the "interconnectedness" of all the creation in this universe. Being in isolation lessens our value, being one with all gives the highest value to our existence. Despite of their circumstances, looking into the eyes of Owen and Haatchi, we see LOVE INFINITY.

    My class and I are inspired by this video in many ways. We can't stop watching it! We are about to read Haatchi and Little B together! We cannot wait!! Owen is so young and so smart! He is brave and loving! Haatchi is lucky to have Owen and Owen is lucky to have Haatchi!

    Every single second of this film was moving. This is a "box-of-tissue film." Great job delivering this to us, Karma Tube!!!

  • Pritesh

    Love transcends all boundaries. In words of Owen, this is indeed an 'amazing' match. Finally, Owen sounds extremely clear and comforting to listen. Thank you for sharing!

  • Sara

    Owen could not ask for a more loyal or loving companion friend. Haatchi was obviously sent to be with Owen- a beautiful bond-this the love in this video between Owen and Haatchi reminds me of the love Tara the elephant and Bella the little dog had for each other.. thank you for sharing.

  • Sally

    what a beautifully heart-warming story. Owen has a gorgeous voice! I think he could do voice-over works for animations and maybe advertising.

  • Frank

    Beautiful story. Love the boy's aliveness. I was sad, though, that others at the "friends for life contest" lost, as if it were a competition.

  • Linda

    Owen and Haatchi -- thank you for sharing your story and special bond of love.

  • Bob

    Another perfect example of the true meaning of "Unconditional Love" that sets the standard of merging mankind with the animal kingdom. I send love and light to Owen, Haatchi and his proud and loving parents--you make my heart sing!!!

  • Sandra

  • Carolyn

    We that have been blessed with so much tend to take so much for granted. No one is meant to be alone or an out cast in this world and our maker has provided the help/aid that we need. s

  • Ashish

    Full of compassion and love...amazing bond between two souls

  • Deven

    When heart connects, you look for good side naturally. And that "space of comfort" is so nurturing. Love knows no barrier of language or any other external conditions.

  • Mary

    There is someone for everyone.

  • meetakshi

    Beautiful. Perfect companionship. One for another. unconditional. free from all judgement. Free from all need to impress. Love the way it should be. Free in every way, yet an attitude of servitude. thanks for sharing guys <3

  • brett

    I think I'll start a religion where the dogs are diving beings sent to hold the world together by example and pure, unconditioned love.

  • Dee DiGioia

    This is just so uplifting - how precious for both Owen and Haatchi to have this special bond- I'm so happy Owen could find his confidence with the help of Haatchi. Tears of joy!!! Both are so beautiful tied together with a strand of love!

    Very touching! What a wonderful bond of love ! If I can do for someone even a tiny bit what the dog could do to Owen, that would be the best achievement of my life !! God bless you two..!
