Dog owners know how loving, caring and loyal their furry companions can be.
While others have dogs to simply guard their homes, many treat their pooches as a part of the family.
Some people adopt dogs to feel the loyalty and unconditional love these animals can offer. They have so much compassion that extends not only to their human companions but also to their four-legged friends.
One YouTube video went viral as someone filmed a pack of dogs doing a selfless act for another canine. Taken in Lanzhou, Central China, the video showed a dog lying in the middle of the road.
It was evident that the pooch was hurt and probably got hit by a vehicle. But he wasn’t alone as four other dogs were there to protect him from cars.
His pals tried to nudge him as if trying to get him back on his paws.
Unfortunately, the pooch didn’t make it. But the other dogs didn’t want to leave their furry friend alone. They stayed and watched over his body.
More and more vehicles surrounded them and drivers watched the breathtaking but heartbreaking scene. Some wondered why the dogs didn’t move even when there were cars passing by.
People might not realize it but dogs also grieve the loss of their loved ones. Some can get depressed after losing another dog or human friend. They can lose interest in food, get lethargic, and get sick too.
Like humans, dogs also have emotions. The only difference is that they do not completely understand what’s going on. The next thing they know is that their pal is no longer in their circle and it can be very painful for them too.
