On September 16, the reporter visited the scene.
Chongqing Evening News-upstream news reporter Peng Guangrui and Ren Jun photo report
On-site search: no one has heard the story of loyal dogs
Sister Luo's friend Sister Lou also confirmed this statement. Sister Luo once entrusted Sister Lou to take the ingot home and take care of it for a period of time.
Sister Lou said that she was considered half of its owner, but they didn't even know the name "Yuanbao" and the story of a dog waiting for its dead owner.
Dog was adopted: now living in a new home
So, where is the ingot now?
"I have gone to my new home." Sister Luo said. Someone found her a few days ago and expressed that she wanted to adopt Yuanbao.
After communicating with each other many times, Sister Luo felt that the other party really loves dogs, so she decided to give the dog to each other.
Sister Luo deliberately told reporters that in the early years, many people wanted to ask for ingots from her, but she rejected them because she thought the other party would not treat ingots properly.
But she felt that the adopter who found her this time was someone who really loves dogs. In addition, Yuan Bao was old and needed a stable environment, so she gave it to the other party.
In the afternoon of the same day, the adopter also asked her for help because the dog was not eating well in the new environment, and asked Sister Luo to see the ingot.
Under the coordination of Sister Luo, the reporter met Yuanbao's new home and new owner.
The reporter saw in Yuan Bao’s new home that the adopters prepared a lot of different foods for Yuan Bao, hoping that it would eat more. The attitude towards Yuan Bao was very intimate, and Yuan Bao was closer to the new owner.
Video starter: listen to stories told by passersby selling vegetables
On September 17, the reporter contacted the broadcaster who posted the message through the short video APP private message.
He said that he only knew that there was a mother-in-law who often fed ingots, and he didn't know if the other party was the owner of the dog.
Regarding the story of "a loyal dog waiting for his deceased owner", he heard what an "passing old woman selling vegetables" said.
At noon on the 16th, the reporter arrived at the Fifth People's Hospital (hereinafter referred to as the "Fifth Hospital") near Danzishi, Nan'an District.
According to the background in the video, the reporter found the big tree and steps of Yuanbao "squatting" on the side of the road outside the garage entrance of the fifth courtyard.
But there was no sign of Yuan Bao.
"I know it. It has also fought with my dog." A salesperson at a nearby fresh food supermarket said that he had seen the story of Yuanbao on the Internet. After careful identification, he found that it is the one that often moves in the open space outside the supermarket. Dogs.
Once she took her dog out of the house, and the two dogs yelled and fight with each other.
As for whether Yuan Bao was here to protect the owner, she had never heard of it.
The reporter followed up with many nearby businesses and passers-by, including the medical staff of the fifth hospital, and most of the responses received were: never heard the story of the "loyal dog".
"It's very familiar, it's a dog raised by a big sister." The reporter found the old man who was cleaning the property in the nearby community, and he gave a relatively accurate statement.
The old man said that the dog owner is an old sister, who picks up leftovers from patients in the hospital every day and takes them home to feed chickens and ducks.
Therefore, when they meet at work, they will talk about the family.
Yuan Bao is a dog that the elder sister has raised for many years. She did not take it away after moving, but stayed here.
The nest of ingots is usually placed under the eaves of a nearby building to shelter from wind and rain.
When the eldest sister comes here every day, she will bring food to feed the dog.
This situation has been going on for a year or two.
How long Yuanbao has lived here, the old man can't tell.
Real dog owner: Did not name it "Yuanbao"
During the search, we learned that "Yuanbao" is not actually called "Yuanbao" (for convenience, we still call it by this name).
At about 1 pm, in the mouth of the old man of the property, the reporter learned that the dog owner would go to the hospital every day, around 3 pm.
The reporter decided to wait for the dog owner on the spot.
Around 2:40 in the afternoon, a big sister really came.
"Yes, it is my dog." The elder sister said that her surname was Luo, and Yuan Bao was a dog adopted from others four or five years ago.
One or two years ago, after she moved to Huangjueya, Nanshan, she left it here considering that the environment was not suitable for keeping dogs.
Sister Luo goes to the hospital every day to collect leftovers, so she feeds Yuanbao by the way.
But Sister Luo said that she didn't give it a name, and always simply called it "dog".
As for how Yuan Bao's name came from, she didn't know.
Sister Luo also doesn't know the whole story of the fact that Wang Chuan Yuanbao is here to wait for his dead owner.
She joked: "It's okay, just say that it's giving me a long life."
