For over two days, the truck has sat in a police station parking lot. And in a display of utter loyalty, the dog has refused to leave the back of the truck despite the blazing heat.
Locals residing near the police station felt sorry for the poor dog suffering in the sun. They built a small tent to provide shade for the canine and even left food and water.
One of them told Khaosod that when they tried to move the dog from the truck, it would growl to keep them away.
Locals reportedly plan on easing the dog out and take care of it if the owner doesn’t return.
