حزن الكلب

Heartbreaking: The male dog tries to nudge his mate awake after she was hit by a car

Vigil: The dog refused to move from her side despite the female lying in the middle of the busy road

Moving: The male tries licking the top of her head as he tries to revive her

The male was seen repeatedly licking the face of dead dog and keeping a watchful eye on her as he dodged the oncoming traffic. But he never strayed more than a short distance from her side.

Mourning: Witnesses said he only left her side to move out of the way of oncoming traffic

Bereaved: Butcher Xiao Wu, who works on the street, said when the dog was tired he would simply lie down but would not leave her side

Tragic: The male dog continues to cuddle the dead female even when her body has apparently been moved to the side of the road
