A sick dog in China kept her owner company beside her grave for two years after she died then met a Good Samaritan that cured her disease and took care of her.

Chinese influencer and owner of a stray dog relief centre in eastern China’s Jiangxi province, @ganpojiege, posted a video of the loyal dog on November 5, attracting 85,000 likes and thousands of comments.

He received help from villagers in the province and discovered the dog next to her owner’s grave, with serious skin disease and a crippled leg, in 2022.

The villagers told @ganpojiege that she had been keeping her owner company after she passed away two years ago.

Some tried to adopt her but she ran back to the grave by herself again and again, so they gave up.
