Heartwarming clip shows loyal dog clinging to ambulance as owner taken to hospital

The adorable pooch, dressed in a little red coat, refused to leave his owner’s side when they became unwell – and even waited outside the hospital entrance for them to be reunited.

The Mirror reports that an incredibly loyal dog was filmed clinging to the back of an ambulance as his owner was transported to hospital.

The dog owner had been walking her pet when he fell ill in the city of Uruguaiana, in Brazil.

Emergency services were called to the scene and the man was placed into the back of an ambulance to be transported to hospital. Footage, posted by Anderson Bahi on Facebook, then shows the loving dog jumping onto the back of the ambulance as he follows his owner.

Dressed in a little red jumper, the faithful pooch was captured sitting on the bumper of the ambulance in a bid to be as close to his stricken owner as possible.

Paramedics took pity on the sweet dog and opened the doors to allow him inside the ambulance.

The dog reportedly then waited outside the hospital entrance as his owner was treated.

Mr Bahi told The Dodo : “I was passing in my car when I saw an ambulance stopped on the other side of the road. “The love this dog has for her owner is something very special. “A faithful love.”

Many social media users and those who spotted the dog at the hospital were overwhelmed by the dog’s adorable loyalty.

Local animal rescuer Maria Lúcia Muniz, who lives near the hospital, said she saw the lonely pooch and offered to take it in for the night while her owner recovered.
