The Ministry of Emergency Situations told about the "Bashkir Khatiko"

In Bashkiria, a dog waits for its owner, who died during a fire, in the ashes of a house. On April 13, the Ministry of Emergency Situations of the republic told about this, calling the dog a "Bashkir Khatiko."

"A one-story garden house caught fire in the SNT "Nadezhda". During extinguishing, firefighters from the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations found the body of a 62-year-old man under the rubble. There is still a dog sitting near the house. The dog does not leave the ashes and faithfully waits for the owner," the department's Telegram channel says.

The ministry clarified that the staff of the Ministry of Emergency Situations tried to take the dog, but he would not let anyone near him. Now the locals are bringing him food and water to somehow take care of him.

On February 14, Vladimir Golubev, President of the Russian Cynological Federation, said that a dog's love is manifested in affection for its owner. According to the expert, dogs trust those whom they consider a reliable leader. If we draw a parallel between affection and love, then we can say that if a pet trusts a person, he loves them.
