According to reports, the old man was named Leonardo, and he died of illness in February.
His daughter Sara noticed that the old man's pet dog was not at home on the second day after the funeral. When she brought her son to the father's grave to lay flowers, she saw that the pet dog arrived earlier than them.
"It's really incredible... I didn't expect it to find it here. It didn't attend the funeral, and no one brought it here," Sara said, and Dad's dog could finally "reunite" with him. Although it's just a spiritual reunion, I think they really miss each other."
In the days that followed, the puppy would leave home for a few hours every day.
The neighbors told Sarah that they saw the puppy running towards the cemetery of the dead old man. It seemed that he was still reluctant to visit the "old friend" at the tomb.
Sarah said that she felt sad to see her dad's pet dog showing a sad look.
But she believes that her family and the puppy will "face together, overcome together, and walk out of this haze together."
