The act of the said dog has touched and melted the heart of countless social media users, whom also shared their sympathy to the dog.

The eight-year-old dog, who was named Big Yellow by his original master, has been fostered by the user's son when his father died on the Chinese Lunar New Year in 2021, as per The Independent latest news update.

As shown in a social media thread update uploaded on Chinese social media network Douyin by a lady distinguished by nothing but her family forename, Li, the dog managed to sneak away as well as travel back to the countryside where his original master resided within approximately a week of full-time travel.

In a New York Post update, the said social media update thread post, which also included a short clip of the dog, took the world by storm, prompting readers to express an opinion on the occurrence and compare it to the Richard Gere film, which was primarily focused on the actual tale of a dog nicknamed Hachiko, who ended up waiting for his deceased master for almost 9 years.

According to the official statement of Ms. Li in which she commented in reference to Douyin's short clip update that though maybe Big Yellow - the dog, doesn't grasp what death is and why the subject he cared about the greatest is no longer with him today.

The initial owner's son, who already had brought the dog with his native rural area, opted to keep the dog at his deceased father's hamlet.

Big Yellow, as said by observers, has constantly roamed the street corners of the hamlet in quick check of his registered proprietor and devotes a lot of time in the entrance of the family home standing in line and expecting for him to come back, as per to the Daily Advent online media site.

Ms. Li also made aware of the fact that she has literally no idea Big Yellow's tale would become viral, since for her, she merely recorded the footage nonchalantly because of her fondness to canines like Big Yellow.

It was also reported that Ms. Li stated in the Douyin live stream that neighbors send him meals to show their appreciation for his commitment.

In a proper interview with her she explained that Big Yellow has received excellent primary healthcare services in the community, in which the majority of the people are old.

Furthermore, just several visitors arrive from outside of the country and several more people have dogs that they let go throughout the hamlet.

Also, other individuals participating in the online media sites expressed their personal experiences with dog devotion.

"Everything the puppy wishes to do is stand in line and wait for his master to come back," one person said.
