Dog days

In India an animal rescue worker has saved the life of a depressed dog, sitting at the roadside where its owner was buried after being killed in a crash. The canine mourner stayed at the site near Chennai for 15 days, despite being unfed. The animal rescue worker saw the dog repeatedly during her commute and realised that the canine was staying in the one spot. After much persuasion the animal was persuaded to eat and drink and has since been returned to health.
