Dakota a Great Dane was rescued by Codie Fernin from the SPCA in Vereeniging, South Africa after they found him underweight and malnourished.
It took them two months to rehabilitate Dakota. They tried finding a suitable home for Dakota, but Dakota adopted his hero, Codie. So eventually Codie had to adopt Dakota as his own.
