THE  SCARED DOG

One day, while Bella was playing, she saw a beautiful dog. It was a very cute Pomeranian dog with white furs. The dog was standing in the middle of the road and was afraid as its owner left it on the road willingly. The dog was very sad and was moaning in pain. Bella quickly picked it up and brought it to her home.

THE FIRST MEETING

As you all know, Betty did not like dogs, she started to shout at Bella. However, Bella did not listen to her and made the dog comfortable and fed it. Hearing the conversation, the mother rushed immediately and said, “Darling, from where did you find this dog? Why did you bring it home?” To this, Bella replied, “Mamma, the poor dog was sad because its owner left it on the road. So, I brought her home. She will stay with us from now on.” The mother smiled and immediately agreed.

The poor Betty was not happy with her decision. She was really scared of the dogs. In the evening, the father came from the office. He also tried hard to make Betty understand, but Betty was very stubborn. She did not want this dog to stay at her home. You may also like to read, The Dog and The Wolf.

Soon, it was time to go to bed. The mother tied the dog as Betty was scared of it and soon everybody was fast asleep, except for the dog. The dog was crying as it was missing its owner. At first, Betty ignored it. But she could not resist and quietly went to the dog to see what was wrong with it.

BETTY’S MELTING HEART

To her surprise, the dog did not bark at her. She came closer to it and the dog was looking at her with all the love. For the first time, Betty touched a dog. As she touched her, the dog immediately stopped crying and started licking her. Betty was actually enjoying the dog’s company. The father, mother, and Bella were looking at all of this from behind the door. They pretended as if they did not see anything. Also, read Elephant and Dog Story.

The next morning, Betty said, “I have decided the name of my dog. It will be Sophia!” To this, Bella said, “My dog? It’s our dog! Aww, I loved the name.” At once, Bella hugged Betty and said, “I love you, Sister!” The father and mother were happy to hear that and they welcomed a new member to their family.

And so, Betty and Sophia became best of friends. They are still the best of friends. They play together, sleep together, eat together and most of all, they love each other a lot.

10 stories about dog love and fidelity

Today "RG" has collected the most touching facts about what those we have tamed are capable of.

1. Ural "Hachiko"

A shaggy red-haired mongrel has been waiting for its owner for almost two years in the Sverdlovsk region on the Yekaterinburg-Krasnoufimsk highway. Local television people have already filmed a lot of stories about her.

She watches all the passing cars. It approaches those who stop, but not close. According to one version, its owner died in a car accident, according to another, the dog was simply thrown away.

Truckers feed the animal. Olivier and cakes were brought for the new year. But she never ate them.

Many wanted to take the dog away, but she won't let anyone near her. Once a man came to her, who assured that this was his missing dog named Kuzya. However, the dog did not recognize the man. She still lives on the sidelines. Compassionate residents of local villages made a booth for her.

2. Booth for Mukhtar

A new booth for Mukhtar from the Krasnodar city of Krymsk, which was flooded in July 2012, appeared next to the house where his mistress lived. Faina Chuprina died in that terrible flood. Her faithful dog Mukhtar was waiting for the woman in the ruins of the house for five months. Then the neighbors built him a booth.

They hope that someday he will find new owners.

3. On rails 1.5 thousand kilometers

The journey from Astrakhan to Perm lasted four months for a pit bull terrier named Sam.

The dog was lost at the railway station in Astrakhan. Heartbroken owner Alexander Petrov did everything to find her. "I had all my thoughts only about my Sam: where is he, what's wrong with him," the owner recalled. But the dog sank into the water.

One day Alexander came across an ad on the Internet saying that a dog had been found at a railway station in Perm. And her photograph was given. Alexander immediately recognized Sam. It turned out that the dog ran after the train in which the owner left. She covered 1.5 thousand kilometers, crossed the country from south to north.

Alexander found and took the dog. Now everyone is happy, but Sam now bypasses train stations.

4. Every day with the ringing of bells

A German Shepherd named Tommy lived for 7 years in the home of the Italian Maria Margherita Locchi in San Donacci, near the city of Brindisi. The woman picked up Tommy in the field. Someone threw the puppy away. When the woman died, the faithful dog began to run every day to the church, where he and his mistress came. At the funeral of Mary Margaret, Tommy joined the mourners, and since then he always appears in the church, as soon as the bells ring announcing the beginning of the service.

5. Survive September 11

On September 11, 2001, blind computer scientist Omar Eduardo Riviera was working on the 71st floor of the World Trade Center with his Labrador Retriever guide dog Dorado.

After a plane hijacked by terrorists crashed into the tower, panic began. Riviera did not hope that he would be rescued. But he tried to save the dog by unhooking the leash. “I thought this was the end - the noise and heat were terrifying, but I wanted to give Dorado a chance to escape. So I unhooked the leash, patted him on the head, pushed him and ordered him to leave,” Riviera said. The dog was thrown down by a crowd of people evacuating. However, the devoted dog did not even think of running away. After a few minutes, he buried himself at the feet of his master.

Dorado and another employee of the center helped Riviera down from the 71st floor. Shortly after they got outside, the building collapsed.

6. Love and the ocean are not a barrier

In the summer of 1991, a photo essay was published in a provincial Japanese newspaper, which told about the touching story of dog love.

A fisherman from the island of Ako Nakamura had a dog named Shiro. In January 1991, Nakamura moved to another island - Zamami. “One morning,” says Nakamura, “a few days after I settled on Zamami, I saw that Shiro was standing on the pier and staring at the rocks of Ako Island in the distance. There was such longing in his eyes that I was frightened: "I love my dog ​​very much. I couldn't understand what happened. Shiro stood motionless for almost an hour. And the next day he disappeared. He appeared only in the evening - tired and wet." The disappearance of the dog was repeated day after day. But in the evening she always returned to the owner. The fisherman decided to trace where his dog was disappearing: “I saw that early in the morning Shiro came to the pier, stared at the distant island for several minutes, and then threw himself into the icy water and swam. I was shocked. It’s two and a half miles to the island of Ako "Did he swim there? But why? I called my friend on Ako by radiotelephone and asked him to find out if Shiro swam there and why."

A friend followed the dog's path. It turned out that every day he sailed to his girlfriend - a dog who lived in the neighborhood before the fisherman left the island. Shiro's lover's name was Marilyn. But after the "date" Shiro returned to his master, whom he also loved very much. All of Japan followed this canine romance. Thousands of tourists came to the island of Ako specifically to see the famous dog with their own eyes. Shiro died in 2000 at the age of 17. The story of his love was immortalized in a monument.

7. Life goes on

The story of dog love in 2011 shocked the inhabitants of northern Yakutsk, who discussed it for a long time on the forums.

For two weeks in the most severe frosts, the dog - an ordinary mongrel - did not leave his dead girlfriend - huskies. The drama played out on the outskirts of the city. On the territory of the garage cooperative, local residents found a Yakutian Laika dead and already covered with snow. Next to her lay another creature - also a dog, still alive.

The watchman who tamed them later told the story of these dogs.

Laika and a large gray mongrel, which the keeper fed, grew up and became attached to each other. When a friend died, the dog did not leave her, hoping, probably, for a miracle. People did not dare to come up and bury the dead husky for a long time.

But the dog, who was on a sad watch, was brought food from all over the city, and a warm bed was provided. One married couple tried to take the dog home, but he escaped and returned to his original place. Only after the puppies were nailed to the mongrel, the dog cheered up and even began to play with them. Life goes on.

8. Volgograd "Mu-Mu"

An instructive story of a dog's disinterested love for a man took place in Volgograd. The well-known saying of the English naturalist and writer Gerald Durrell is quite suitable for her: "The more I think about people, the more I love dogs."

A mongrel named Richie lived in the same family. The dog was restless: it barked out of place and out of place, whined, howled, which made the neighbors very angry. At the family council, the owners decided to get rid of Richie, following the plot of Turgenev's "Mu-Mu". The head of the family was assigned to do the dirty deed. But, once near the water, the man walked along the coast back and forth for a long time, not daring to drown the unfortunate animal. And suddenly ... fell off a steep cliff and fell into cold water. Although in that place it was not deep, but the spasm reduced the muscles, and the man began to sink. The dog rushed into the water and with great difficulty pulled the owner ashore. Richie was welcomed home like a true hero. Neighbors no longer complain, only the owner is ashamed to look the dog in the eyes.

9. All life in the cemetery

Greyfriars cemetery in the Scottish city of Edinburgh was founded in 1561. Many people have found their last refuge here. But not far from the human graves there is also a churchyard of a dog named Bobby.

The dog was honored to be buried here because of his extraordinary devotion to his owner. This history is already more than 150 years old: in 1850, the gardener John Gray settled in Edinburgh. But John could not find a job as a gardener, so he got a job as a night watchman in the police.

A few years later, John adopted a Skye Terrier as his assistant and named him Bobby. The couple began to patrol the city blocks. This went on for two years, then John became seriously ill and died. He was buried in Greyfriars Cemetery.

Bobby settled on the owner's grave. At first, the cemetery officials tried to drive the dog out of there, but at the first opportunity, Bobby returned back. The stubborn dog was left alone and even made a canopy next to John's grave. In 1867, a law was passed in Scotland, according to which all dogs in the city must be licensed, otherwise they were subject to destruction.

Bobby had no owner, so he could be captured and killed at any moment. Then Sir William Chambers - the Lord Mayor of Edinburgh - paid for Bobby's license and handed him a collar with a copper inscription, which indicated that this was Bobby from the Greyfriars cemetery.

Bobby died in January 1872 at the owner's grave. The dog was 16 at the time. He lived in the cemetery for 14 of them. In Scotland, it is illegal to bury animals directly within a cemetery. Therefore, a grave was dug especially for Bobby in front of the entrance gate, not far from the grave of John Gray. Bobby's headstone reads: "Greyfriars Bobby - died January 14, 1872 - at the age of 16. Let his loyalty and devotion be a lesson to all of us."

10. Monument of devotion

Russia also has its own monument of devotion. In the summer of 1995, a car accident occurred on the Togliatti ring road. In one of the colliding cars was a young couple and their shepherd dog. People died, but the dog miraculously survived.

7 years, in the heat and cold, the dog guarded the place where his owners died. The locals gave him a new nickname - Konstantin (translated from Greek as "permanent", "faithful"). Whoever tried to take it away failed. The dog ran away and returned to the scene of the accident. She was waiting for the cherry "ten" - the car in which the unfortunate family rode.

The dog died in 2002. Soon, on the roadside, where Konstantin was waiting for his owners, a poster appeared with the inscription: "To the dog who taught us love and devotion." But the poster was constantly blown away by the wind. Then the Togliatti public came up with the initiative to erect a real bronze monument to Konstantin. A year after the death of the dog, a monument was erected with the inscription "Monument of Devotion". The residents of Togliatti collected money for it.

Now everyone passing by is met by a bronze dog. The inscription on the monument is the same as on the poster: "To the dog who taught us love and devotion. People."

Competently

Elena Neprintseva, Head of the Scientific Research Department of the Moscow Zoo, Candidate of Biological Sciences:

- Dogs are social creatures. Like their closest relatives - wolves that live in complex groups in which there is a development of a communication system. They have a great need for each other. For example, wolves hunt together. And thanks to this, they can even defeat such a large animal as an elk. Wolves were not tamed by humans, but dogs were. And dogs have learned to read gestures, habits of people. They perceive it as a kind of language. Much of the behavior of dogs is due to the environment in which they were brought up. If the puppy initially lives with a person, he begins to interact only with people, and is afraid of his relatives. If, on the contrary, it turns out to be among dogs, then it fears a person.

But cats, which have also become pets, are loners by nature. Just like the larger and predatory representatives of their species - lions, tigers ... The biological feature of cats is the lack of a need to live in a group. Cats treat people mainly as a source of food.
