Video: Dog shows his loyalty as he follows master's coffin to the temple

A video tugged at the heartstrings of Thai netizens as it showed a loyal puppy chasing and following a pick-up truck carrying the body of its beloved master to a temple in Tha Chana district of Surat Thani.

 

Despite the long journey "Chinjang" - a ten month old Bang Kaew pup - refuses to give up and completes the journey to the cremation site.

 

The footage was shown on Facebook on the page of Pornsak Nitnara.

 

Daily News Online caught up with Chinjang's owner Anghana Chimsawat who stressed that she had tried to stop him and another female dog from running in this way but he had got loose for part of the journey.

 

She said that the dogs were devoted to the father of her husband who died. Phaiboon Chaimusik would take them everywhere he went in the locality and even took them when he went away on trips for two or three days.

 

But when he died the dogs were very sad - resulting in the final dash to the temple of the loyal young puppy.

 

Angkhana said that it was a custom that a "hearse" carrying a dead body must not stop on its way to a temple.

 

She called on people critical of the video and worried about the welfare of the dog to understand that the people in the following vehicle had tried to grab the dog without success. People should concentrate on the loyalty of "Chinjang" rather than make a drama out of it.

 

The video was viewed by the best part of a million people online with Daily News saying that many netizens were in tears as they watched.

I'm sure I haven't known any dog you've known.

Are they trying to tell you something?

Social media (newspapers) went crazy over this little dog in 19th century Scotland ...
