A loyal dog named Toño demonstrated just how deep the bond between a pet and its owner can be in a heartwarming story from Tunja, Colombia.
Chasing After Him
When Toño’s owner, Alejandro, fell seriously ill and needed to be rushed to the hospital, the devoted dog wouldn’t let him go alone.
As Alejandro was being transported in an ambulance from Villa de Leyva to the city of Tunja, located nearly 40 kilometers away, Toño somehow managed to escape the house and chase after him.
According to local reports, the ambulance crew forgot to close the front door, allowing Toño to make his way out and pursue the vehicle.
A passing motorcyclist noticed the determined dog sprinting along the road, covering an impressive 20 blocks in his effort to stay close to his owner.
Join The Ambulance
The motorcyclist, who captured the touching moment on camera, alerted the ambulance crew by signaling them to stop.
In a beautiful reunion, Toño was allowed to join Alejandro in the ambulance, reuniting the inseparable duo. The moment, shared on social media by the motorcyclist, quickly went viral, capturing the hearts of people around the world.
Toño's story serves as a reminder of the unwavering loyalty dogs have for their owners. His persistence not only impressed witnesses but also brought comfort to Alejandro during a difficult time, showing that true love knows no limits—not even the doors of an ambulance.
