Dog abandoned on roadside chases owner's car, heartbreaking video goes viral; watch
Pets are regarded as integral family members by many who develop an emotional connection with them. However, some view them as just companions and keep them as a status symbol. Such people don't take proper care of their pets and don't even hesitate to harm or abandon them. Some of the reasons for abandoning pets include age, health issues, lifestyle changes or relocating to a new place. Social media is flooded with such heartbreaking videos. Recently, a video of an abandoned pet has gone viral on the internet that may leave anyone heartbroken.
In the viral video, a dog is seen chasing behind a four-wheeler. Even though the vehicle is moving at a high speed and several other vehicles are running on the road, the dog seems to be determined to reach out to the vehicle.
However, the vehicle moves at a high speed leaving behind the poor dog. Eventually, after chasing the car to a distance, the dog slows down.
The incident was captured by someone moving behind the poor dog.
The clip was originally shared on Instagram by Adorable Doggos and the text on the screen reads, "The car in front abandoned their dog, but it's still chasing after them, not wanting to be left behind." (sic)
