Pictures of a dog faithfully watching
over his canine companion who had
been killed by a car in China have
become a hit on the internet.

[ The sandy-coloured 'Good Samaritan'
pooch stayed by his friend's side,
despite his pal's body lying in
the middle of a busy road.
And he refused to move for a whole
night as temperatures
plummeted to low as -13C.
Some people who live and work nearby
saw the pair and decided to put a stool
next to the animals to alert drivers and
avoid a second dog death after
the first accident on December 22.
Passers-by took pictures and put
them online, and the images have
been re-posted many times.
One woman called Ma Hongyan
said: "It is our stool. A kind-hearted
woman put it next to the dogs to protect
them from being hit again by another car."
Another onlooker in the city of Yinchuan,
in the region of Ningxia Hui,
said: "The drivers must be careful and not hit them.
"The dog has been here for his friend all night."
Eventually, the deceased white dog
was picked
up by a restaurant owner and taken
to the side of the road.
But even then, the sandy dog refused
to let go. Trotting with his tail held high,
he stuck close to his pal.]
