On Saturday, Jesus Hueche was cutting down some tree branches in his yard in Argentina.
Suddenly, he slipped and fell 6 feet (2 m) to the sidewalk below.
He hit his head on the concrete and lost consciousness. But thankfully, he wasn’t alone.
When the ambulance arrived at the scene, they found Jesus’ puppy, Tony, hugging him, writes The Dodo.
When Jesus finally woke up, he saw that Tony was right there. His little four-legged friend was hugging him and wouldn’t leave his side. Jesus petted him, and Tony immediately knew that everything was going to be okay.
When the emergency medical team wheeled Jesus to the ambulance, Tony followed them. He even tried to jump up into the ambulance, but was unsuccessful.
I guess pets aren’t allowed in ambulances in Argentina. But, Tony’s best friend would return soon.
When Jesus arrived at the hospital, he was told that the damage was relatively mild.
He was quickly released and was reunited with his beloved Tony, who was patiently waiting for him.
Pictures of the event were shared on social media and people around the world were touched by it. These two really are best friends!
“We saw him on the street one day and adopted him. We gave him love, food, and a family. To me, he’s like a son,” Jesus told local radio station La Brujula 24.
Dogs really are a man’s best friend! Please share this story with your friends on Facebook if you were also touched by this story.
