Just unbelievably heartbreaking 💔
Ms Wu said: ‘I first noticed the little dog when I returned to work in the middle of April. I called him “Xiao Bao”. That’s the name I gave him.‘They told me Xiao Bao’s owner, a pensioner, was admitted with the coronavirus. Then he passed away, but Xiao Bao didn’t know and just stayed in the hospital looking for him.
‘It never left the hospital. It was incredibly touching, and so loyal. I grew familiar with the dog and later brought him into the shop. ‘Every morning when I opened up, Xiao Bao would be there waiting for me. He saw me off at the end of each day.’ Ms Wu said Xiao Bao refused to leave, even when they deliberately dropped him off somewhere far away.He would always make his way back to Taikang Hospital and patiently wait for his owner to return.
On May 20, as Taikang Hospital filled with regular patients, staff received complaints and concerns about Xiao Bao roaming the corridors.Xiao Bao was treated by vets and has also been sterilised as he prepares to be rehomed.The shelter is now vetting Xiao Bao’s potential new parents, the association’s director Du Fan said.
