They say that a dog is man’s best friend. Dogs are arguably the best companions in the world. They are loyal and protective of their owners and their love is unconditional. But we believe that it goes both ways. Some (if not most) dog owners would agree that their four-legged friends are like family members to them. Not only dogs, but also their owners forget about their own well-being when their dear companions are not feeling good.
Goody Wu is a woman from Taipei city in Taiwan who has proved that nothing is more important to her than her dog’s safety and happiness. When an earthquake happened, the woman immediately went to comfort her beloved pet while forgetting about her own fears. She hugged her dog and was ready to cover him with her own body if anything happened. They are both well now, enjoying life in each other’s company.
