In Thailand, the online community is sharing a video of a mother Pug with her litter awaiting sale. According to the Daily Mail, despite the mother having recently given birth, the owner is looking to sell all seven puppies.
Seemingly aware that her pups are about to be separated, the mother Pug appears visibly distressed, keeping a watchful eye on them as they nap.
Occasionally, she tenderly uses her long tongue to comfort one of the sleepy puppies. Her eyes always glisten with compassion, leaving viewers inevitably moved by the poignant display of maternal love.
Many netizens have shared that they cried while watching the clip, some even couldn't bring themselves to finish it because it was too heart-wrenching.
"I'm sad to the core watching this video. I feel so sorry for the mother dog! Looking at its face and eyes, I understand how stressed the animal is," expressed Mary.
In addition, some people expressed their indignation towards the owner of the dogs.
Islander wrote: "Typically, people only sell puppies from 8 weeks old and above, who sells them when they've just been born a few days ago like this?"
"7 puppies are still too young to be away from their mother. The seller truly has no conscience," NYBelle exclaimed.
Meanwhile, faced with the painful reality, Rabbit hopes that the puppies will find a better new owner.
Many global netizens have mentioned that this touching story made them realize that whether it's humans or animals, maternal love is always precious and sacred.
