A HEARTBREAKING image of a dog sitting loyally by its owners dead body in Ukraine has caused an outcry on social media.
The poor animal was captured lying next to the body of a man, thought to be its owner. The man was shot dead by Russian army forces. It resembles the tragic story of Hachikō - a Japanese Akita dog that waited at Shibuya, Tokyo for nine years after his owner's death. It was the subject of 2009 Hollywood film 'Hachi: A Dog's Tale', starring Richard Gere.
The image in Ukraine is thought to have been taken in an area near Kyiv.
It was shared by the Ukrainian animal rights organisation, UAnimals.
A caption said: “The dog does not leave the owner, who was shot dead by the Russian occupiers near Kyiv.”
