A 12-year-old and her dog, who were both killed when they were struck by a car, will be buried together on Saturday. 

This is one of the most heartbreaking stories we've ever heard.

Jennarae Goodbar, 12, of Rockbridge County, Virginia, was outside training her dog, Cash, last Sunday afternoon when the dog ran onto a nearby road. Jennarae chased after Cash, and both were struck and killed by an oncoming car.

Now Jennarae and Cash will be buried together.

“She bought (the dog) with her own cash," Donna Jean Stuples, Jennarae's mother, told the media. "It was her baby.”
