The story was shared on the ‘IndianPets’ subreddit under the title, “An auto driver who carries his late dog’s picture with him every day!”
A Reddit user recounted how the incident took place during a summer internship in Bengaluru. “I booked an auto and told the guy I’d be a little late. When I reached, I saw him feeding street dogs some dog biscuits. Not Parle-G. Now the sweet part, he had this picture of a dog pasted in the front of his auto. It was his pet who had passed away just a month back. That cutie was only four months old,” the user wrote.
The passenger added that as a dog lover, the gesture left them deeply moved. “At the end of the ride, I gave him 100 extra to buy more biscuits for the dogs. He refused at first, but eventually took it after I told him it’s not for you, but for those cuties you feed. A small moment, but it really stayed with me.”
