With her pads destroyed and malnourished, the 1-year-old girl spent two weeks walking to return to her owners, all after they temporarily left her with friends.
Despite what many of us believe, animals really have a memory that is not moved by such specific memories, but by smells, sounds and above all, many times love is what guides them to return to that place where they were happy or where they think their loved ones might be. Remember that loyalty is your greatest virtue.
A case in China shows us that like Hashiko and many others, dogs do not accept forgetting and will always try to cling to what is or was theirs. So a golden retriever dog traveled more than 100 kilometers, for more than two weeks, in search of her home.
It turns out that Ping An , the name of this adorable one-year-old golden retriever, was brought in to stay with her owners' friends on the grounds that the owner was renovating her home and would bring her back once everything was done.
Things got complicated for the dog when, after four months, they still hadn't come for her. So he decided to choose his destination and one day he decided that it was time to return home, which was at least two hours away by car.
With great sadness, Ping's family thought that she had simply escaped and disappeared forever, but what they did not know is that she was on a complete mission to get back to them. However, the road was complicated for her.
Due to the long journey, Ping arrived at an office building where she was rescued by a group of workers after noticing that the dog was limping and her legs were bleeding. She also looked quite sad and undernourished.
After giving her the necessary care, healing her wounds and feeding her, they shared their information on WeChat, a popular Chinese messaging application and without waiting long, they surprisingly found the owners of Ping.
The owners did not take long to get in touch and within hours they managed to recover their dog that they believed was lost. The exciting meeting gave Ping relief because he would never be away from home again, as his owner promised.
“Ping An, you have worked hard. Stay home from now on. We would never send you away ” says its owner in the emotional meeting recorded in a video that is popular around the world today.
As we said, dogs will always be the most faithful souls that exist and they will come to us at any cost.
