The dog waited 3 months in the hospital for the owner who died from COVID

The hospital staff even tried to take Little Hachiko away and leave him on the street. But the faithful dog found his way back.

In the Chinese city of Wuhan, his own Hachiko appeared. The dog had been waiting for its owner for more than three months in one of the city’s hospitals, not knowing that its owner had died of coronavirus.

All this time, the hospital staff cared for a loyal pet named Xiao Bao, until the local animal welfare association took care of his fate.

Elderly owner Xiao, diagnosed with coronavirus, was taken to hospital in February. The man died 5 days later. But his faithful dog, a 7-year-old mongrel, did not give up. Xiao Bao, whose name means “little treasure” in Chinese, remained in the hospital lobby, hoping to meet the owner.  

The hospital cleaner said: the dog refused to leave the building in every possible way, no matter how the hospital workers tried to lure him out into the street. One day, someone from the medical staff took Xiao out in a car and dropped him off far from the hospital. But the dog managed to find his way back and took up his post again.

During this time, the dog made friends with the owner of the store, which is located on the first floor of the hospital. Every time a woman entered the building, Xiao ran out to greet her.

“When owner Xiao died, he stayed in the hospital, continuing to look for the owner,” said the store owner. – He never left the hospital. It was so touching. Although Xiao cannot speak, looking into his eyes, I understand that he is still waiting for his master. “

The hospital staff and the owner of the store fed the hapless Xiao. However, three months later, patients began to complain about the dog that roams the hospital corridors. Then the dog was transferred to the local animal welfare association, where they are now looking for a new family for Xiao.

The story of the dog really touched Internet users.

“We don’t really deserve dogs!” “The saddest thing is that the dog thinks that the owner has left him. The medical staff should have let the dog say goodbye to its owner. ” “Love of dogs is disinterested. People should learn from them. “
