‘Russian Hachikō’: Dog waits four days on ice for owner who drowned at the spot
Belka, a loyal Russian dog, remained at the site where her owner drowned in the Ufa River. The man fell through thin ice and was swept away by a strong current. Despite family efforts to bring her home, Belka tirelessly returned to the riverbank, reminiscent of Japan’s Hachiko. The tragic incident highlights the dangers of crossing thin ice.
