Incredible footage of a Chilean dog saving his friend on a dangerous and busy highway in Santiago, Chile, South America.

(UPDATED) Translation: "These images seen from the surveillance cameras show a very common situation with our overpopulated highways. It is normal for us to see dogs run over. In the video, we can see this dog fighting for his life because he was run over by the vehicle.

"What is very touching is to see the very heroic actions of this other dog who is trying to pull him to the side of the highway. We are going to keep seeing things like this until we find a solution to the dogs living on the streets."

It seems the truth of this story has been lost in the amount of press its received, due to this it has now been unconfirmed on the dog surviving.

A newspaper reader from Chile said this:

"I read about this video on the paper yesterday and it said the dog that was ran over by the car didn't make it through. It also said that a lot of people called the highway emergency number wanting to adopt the hero dog, but it was left on a street near Costanera an never found again."

  • and as for souls, ...

    and as for souls, to speak metaphysically, that is all spirit energy.

    all living things have this spirit energy, without it living things would not exist because this spirit energy is the essence of life.

    one can't claim that only humans have souls because that's pure arrogance.

    not all that dissimilar as saying one 'race' of humans is more superior than all the others *see Hitler and the Nazi Regime for the most extreme example*

  • so we are made in ...

    so we are made in the "image" of your "God"

    no offense but God must be some major F**king retard based on that logic considering how self destructive we humans are

    as for animals painting portriats at the local zoo where i live there is an elephant that loves to paint

    for intelligence the grey parrot is very intelligent but has the emotional maturity of a 3 to 4 year old

    in fact whales are intelligent as well, one whale after being freed from a net faced each rescuing diver and thanked them

  • Dogs are great ...

    Dogs are great animals. According to Chilean news, the injured dog died despite his (her) friend's efforts. The hero then ran away or was left somewhere and hasn't been found since, although people have called wanting to adopt him. Because drivers tried hard to avoid him,at least hero dog wasn't also killed. These were homeless dogs who probably made an attachment surviving in the streets. Dogs are like that.
