This is a real event in Japan, and such a story is not just an accident. One of the dogs I once had, would follow me to school every day and then go home by himself.
Yes, dogs are such loyal animals. The master is what it is all about, and everything in life revolves around you. When you are happy, it will jump and play with you, and when you are sad, it will lie on the side and accompany you quietly. So, in fact, they are very afraid of loneliness. If they are left alone at home for too long, they will be very anxious, and they can't help but cause damage, grab slippers, shred books and newspapers, and break the sofa... It will have a sense of security when it is surrounded by messes. So, don't punish it too harshly. When you criticize it for doing something wrong, it can understand, its head is lowered, its ears are drooping, its small eyes are looking up at you sadly, and it will make a long whimper.
When I was a child, the dog at home was beaten by an adult for doing something bad, and it barked. I was so distressed that I hugged it and hid in the room and cried very aggrieved, as if it was me who was beaten. However, when I was playing with my cousin, my dog would think that I was being bullied, stand in front of me and roar at him, trying to rush to bite him, but he didn't dare. Hearing its slightly trembling cry of lack of confidence, and its frightened retreating movements, I couldn't help but want to laugh, but my heart warmed. Such a young little thing, but he loves you so much in his heart. So, you say, what a blessing it is to have a dog.
Whenever I see a dog in a movie chasing the owner in the car and running all the time, I feel distressed and cry, but Xiaoba just sits quietly at the station gate and waits for the owner to appear, day after day, year after year . Until decades passed like this, until he was dying, and saw the owner in a dream before dying, it must have smiled and left very satisfied. You say, do dogs really dream?
PS. The original sound of this movie, the music is really good~
