A dog is a man’s best friend we have been told and there have been many instances when our four-legged friend has risked their own life to save their humans. And in situations when they can’t do much, be sure that your paw-friend will never leave your side. One such incident happened in Argentina when a pet dog did not leave his master after he fell from a tree and was injured. The furry friend kept holding onto his chest till an ambulance arrived and pictures of the heartwarming gesture have gone viral.
