Dog in Thailand chases owner in rain after allegedly being dumped

Video shows dog chasing owner in the rain after being abandoned

Time and time again, dogs have proven just how unwaveringly loyal they can be to their humans — even those who don’t deserve it.

On Sunday (21 July), a Facebook user shared a heartbreaking video of a dog frantically chasing a silver pick-up truck near the Kasetsart Intersection in Bangkok, Thailand.

It’s believed the poor animal was abandoned by its owner, but its determination to reunite was evident.

The clip shows the pup bravely darting through traffic in the pouring rain, desperately trying to keep up with the departing vehicle.

It then slows near the silver pick-up truck stuck in traffic, circles it, and resumes the chase as soon as the vehicle starts moving.
