Our furry friends often show affection towards their human friends. They show their love in many ways: following them everywhere, giving them a lick in the face, offering them their favorite toy, jumping for joy as soon as they see them or laying their paw on them.

Dogs not only show their affection with their owners, but they can feel a certain complicity with other animals. That was the case of a dog who found a dead turtle in the sand and his reaction did not leave anyone indifferent, not even the hundreds of users who have seen the video published on X (formerly Twitter).

The furry man, who is walking along the shore of the sandy beach, finds the turtle, which seems to have been dead for several days. Immediately, with its snout, the dog begins to move sand to cover the body and give it a dignified death. And it doesn’t stop until he gets it.

The gestures did not end there. Her human friend, moved by the dog’s attitude, joined in that small tribute, placing some shells in the shape of a cross and crowning a “small memorial.”

“How much nature continues to teach us,” says the user who published the video on this social network. The rest also agree in praising the gesture of the furry one, who did not hesitate at any time to pay tribute to this turtle. “We have to learn a lot from nature,” adds another.

“Innate. Overprotective and loyal to his peers,” other users maintain. And most agree: “Puppies are adorable.” “Pure love and respect for those who no longer live,” concludes another.
