Cris Mamprim is a healthcare worker at the Hospital Regional Alto Vale in Brazil. On a recent night shift a homeless man came in needing treatment; accompanying him was his four dogs, according to This is Insider.
The man was admitted to the hospital at 3 a.m for a preexisting condition and while he was being treated his faithful friends waited patiently at the door.
Cris took a picture of the tender scene and posted it on her Facebook page:
“Today I came across this scene. At the hospital where I work, at 3 in the morning, while his owner (who lives on the street) was being treated, his colleagues waited at the door,” she wrote.
“A simple person, without luxuries, who depends on help to overcome hunger, cold, pains, the evils of the world, but has the best companions at his side, and the exchange is reciprocal. Exchange of love, affection, warmth, understanding. A person who confessed to us that he stops eating to feed them.”
Since Cris posted the adorable scene, her post has had reactions from more than 120,000 people. It’s a beautiful image of what happens when you love a dog.
“I don’t know what his life is like, because he’s on the street, and I don’t even want to know and judge him, but I admire the respect and love he has for them. Seeing them like this, waiting at the door, just shows how much they are well cared for and loved. Oh if everyone was like this…. if there was no evil, mistreatment,” she added.
According to The Dodo, the dogs were invited in to wait for their owner who they also offered food to.
“Believe me, he ate some and saved a bit to give the dogs later,” Cris said.
