"The world may be broken, but dogs are here to patch it up."
In Changzhou, a city in China, two stray dogs bravely rushed onto a busy road to save a puppy that had just been hit by a car.
The moment was caught on camera and quickly went viral after being shared online on March 31.
In the video, a small dog is seen running into traffic and getting struck by a fast-moving car.
Two stray dogs then suddenly appeared, ran straight onto the road and carefully dragged the injured puppy back onto the side of the street.
The video posted on Douyin, the Chinese version of TikTok, has received over 45,000 likes and 12,000 shares.
It sparked a huge reaction online, with many people being deeply touched by the dogs’ loyalty and courage.
"The world may be broken, but dogs are here to patch it up," one person commented.
The owner of the injured puppy, who was named as a woman with the surname Huang, told local outlet *China Youth Daily* that the dogs appeared just in time.
“All three dogs were in the middle of the road. Luckily, the other two helped protect my dog and cars were able to avoid hitting them.” she said. “What’s even more amazing is that they somehow managed to drag the puppy right to my front door.”
Huang said her puppy only suffered a few minor scratches and is recovering well.
She said she believes the two heroic dogs are good friends with her dog.
“They often play together when I take my dog out,” she added.
Since then, the two stray dogs have been adopted by other locals in the city and given the names “Da Fu” and “Da Gui”, which means "great fortune" and "great honor" in Chinese.
