The woman arrived at Doctor Pet ‘s Veterinary Clinic, in Cusco, in Peru with her Peruvian dog.
This type of breed is usually hairless so as it was a cold morning she wrapped her dog Lucas up and carried him on her back.
Veterinary staff were so impressed with the elderly owner’s dedication to her dog that they snapped a picture of her arriving and shared it on their Facebook page.
‘God bless this lady’
Staff said despite the cold “when one is so committed to the health of their dog, there is no need to postpone the vet appointment.”
Almost 1,000 people responded to the post and left comments praising the woman’s love for her pet.
One man wrote: “Beautiful, may god bless this good lady who cares with so much love and affection toward her puppy Lucas.”
How could she let a trivial matter like age get in the way of the love for her dog. Carrying this sweet dog couldn’t have been easy but she arrived with a smile on her face.
Let’s praise this determined dog owner for her dedication to her furry friend!
