In a touching display of loyalty, a little dog was seen on camera pursuing an ambulance in a desperate bid to be by his human companion’s side after he became ill.
Because the small dog and his person are both homeless, they have only each other. However, once his young owner is removed by ambulance, the dog called Spike displays an extraordinary sense of loyalty.
The crew in the ambulance spotted a dog urgently following them after picking up an ill homeless person from the streets of Taguatinga, Brazil. The poor little creature was so worried about his companion’s plight that he was prepared to put his life on the line to keep up with the ambulance.
“I have never experienced such a spectacle in my 19 years in my field,” rescue worker Celiosmar Ferreira told the daily Correio Braziliense. “We were moved and concerned for the animal’s safety, since it may be run over.”
The emergency personnel had no idea that the dog that had been following them was really one of the man’s dearest pals. They only realized it when they came to a halt on their journey. “He came to stand in front of the ambulance when we stopped the automobile at an intersection,” Ferreira added. “We decided to take him up at that point.”
The dog immediately jumped in and he looked very concerned about his friend’s well-being. Once they arrived at the hospital, the faithful dog did not leave his human side. Fortunately, it turned out was nothing serious regarding the young man’s medical condition, so shortly after he and his four-legged friends were able to leave.
The young man may not live in the best conditions and he doesn’t have any of material wealth, but he’s definitely richer than many with such a friend! Watch the tiny dog’s journey, bellow:
