Dogs are incredibly devoted to us and will always be at our side no matter what. And they still desire to remain by the owner’s side after he or she has died.

Pets are more emotionally aware than we may imagine; they can recognize when their owner has died and can grieve him or her.

This dog is an example of that.

Those who do not think that animals can experience joy and grief are completely mistaken. They are sensitive individuals, much like us, who get depressed when tragedy strikes.

This small dog is just a year and a half old, yet he has already elicited a wide range of reactions. Not just with his family, but also with thousands of animal companions all across the world.

The reason is a video that was recently published on Youtube.

A dog is seen racing across a cemetery in the video. At first, it’s difficult to grasp what makes his rapid stride and dedication so astonishing.

But finally he arrives across a grave, which turns out to be the owner’s grandmother’s final resting place.

According to the video’s caption, the owner states that every time they travel to the cemetery to see the grandmother who has passed away, the dog always goes to the correct headstone.

It’s as if the sympathetic dog knows just where the grandmother sleeps and rests, and it’s both a comforting and painful deed.

Several viewers on YouTube have been affected by the dog’s actions at the cemetery.

“This is really wonderful,” writes one.

“It’s very sad,” writes another.

“This is priceless”, writes a third.

So sad! We can only imagine the pain you must be feeling, dear little dog!
