I wish that China would learn to be more respectful of animals. Its unfortunate that there is apart of the society that has little or no regard for animals. They treat dogs worse the cattle, very sad situation. I do hope that we get an up date on the owner/dog in the near future.

No one hurt the dog. The marks on his back are from him chewing and licking that area. Most likely from fleas given the location of the discoloration. The enzymes in the saliva cause the rust colored marks. I see it all the time in my groom shop. You couldn't see it at first because of the angle of the camera.

the mark on the dog's back is from running under the ambulance...it's grease, nothing more.

I wonder if the gash everyone is talking about is from before and how the man fell....because you never know... no one really "helps" or tells truth if there was an accident. He might of either gotten upset about his dog and passed out or he was hit.. who knows? BUT I am glad that the dog was there to look after it's master. Aww so cute...

someone did hurt that poor pooch :'( at the dogs back there is something on it its like a wound :(

Wow, the dog started off clean and white and by the end of the video had a huge open gash down the lower section of its back, WTF??? I just hope the dog didn't end up on someone's dinner plate, dog slaughter is common on China. If the dog was here in the US, trigger happy cops scared of their own shadows would have shot it. It's a no win for the poor dedicated pup. I hate the F'ing human race!!!

To those already talking about the mark on the dog's back - the mark was already there, and is clearly visible while the dog is still next to his owner. The dog was NOT hit, just gently moved out of the way so the medics could get the man into the ambulance. I suggest watching both versions of this video, not just the one in English.

GET A CLUE, U.S. LAW ENFORCEMENT BULLIES! This is the proper way to handle a person in need of medical attention, and their loyal dog. Praise to the Chinese paramedics for their compassion to dog and man!!

Humans should be so loyal. Just glad they didn't shoot the dog like they would have here in the US. I hope the person who hit the dog is dealt with.

Victoria,, I had to view video again and I finally saw the dog being hit to stay away like you said. Thanks for bringing that up. I was too busy watching the owner on the ground..however I did notice the gash on the dogs back. Poor dog agonizing and worrying about his owners safety and no one there REALLY with compassion to understand that. A miracle they left the dog go on the ambulance but too bad we dont know what happened when doors were closed :(

guess y'all didn't notice the guy/gal with the stick keeping the dog away or the fact that the deep gash in the dogs back was blurred out on some of the shots. so I wouldn't be all that rah rah

I really hope this changes the perspective a lot of people in China have about dogs. They've never experienced how loving they are as companions

It does make you wonder how this situation would have been handled here in the U.S. Would the dog have been quite so judiciously managed or simply pepper sprayed and gobbled up by Animal Control for a quick trip to the pound. Sadly, so many dogs are mishandled by errant cops who over react to situations they misread as threatening and they promptly dispatch the dogs with a 3-4-5 shots. Unfortunately, they aren't proficient enough with their weapons, to kill the animal with a single shot to the brain, and their ineptness causes undue pain and suffering to the poor animals as they are left to simply exsanguinate or bleed to death in excruciating pain. Thankfully, some cities and municipalities are rethinking their policies and retraining their officers to handle the situations differently. This is good news and hopefully more communities will follow the lead and these kinds of killings will become the exception, rather than commonplace.

Dogs are universal when they teach us empathy, there are no borders.

Good boy!! I was worried though they were going to leave the dog behind!!

They didn't kick the unconscious man, then shoot the dog in the face & then pepper spray it as it convulsed in the middle of the street. Apparently Chinese paramedics > NYPD.

I'm so glad they allowed the dog in the ambulance to be with its master. Wish we could have a follow up on this story.
