Today, we’d like to share a story that reminds us all of the strong bond between dogs and their humans. You might be familiar with the story of Hachikō, the Japanese Akita dog who waited for his deceased owner for nine years at the same spot. This time, the event took place last month in Viana, a city in the Greater Vitória region of Brazil.

We reached out toWalquiria Vieira, the manager of Bem-Estar, the animal welfare NGO currently caring for the dog. She kindly shared with us: “Caramelo’s dedication is a powerful reminder of the deep bond that can exist between humans and their pets. We are committed to finding a home where the dog can receive the love and security he deserves.”

His owner was admitted on August 1, but sadly passed away after being transferred to another hospital

When asked about the type of care the dog is currently receiving at the veterinary clinic and the plan for his recovery, Vieira told us: “Caramelo was rescued and sent directly to a veterinary clinic where he received medical care including blood collection for testing, microchipping for identification and all necessary medical support. Through the test results, they were able to identify anemia and tick disease, which are already being treated. The patient has a low body condition score and adequate feeding and supplementation have already been instituted. Other complementary tests will be performed. The patient will be made available for adoption after castration, complete vaccination and antiparasitic protocol and completion of treatment.”

Lastly, when asked about the estimated duration of the dog’s stay under veterinary care, Vieira responded: “He is still in the diagnostic phase. Tests are still being carried out to complete his evaluation. He will be given to his new family when he is completely healthy!”
