Woman sees dog shivering outside in the cold and gives it her own coat to keep it warm
Kristina Hollie and her colleague were waiting for the bus in Harvard Square in Cambridge, Massachusetts, when they spotted a cute dog running errands with his mother. His mother was about to go to the post office and unfortunately could not take the puppy inside. She started tying him to a tree and what she did next warmed the hearts of everyone watching.
Hollie said, "It was very cold and windy outside. I noticed he was visibly shivering. Obviously she noticed too because she immediately took off her jacket and covered the dog as he sat. Maybe she thought he was going to kick it off, so she bent down and pulled it over his head!" The dog sat perfectly still as his mother put her jacket on him, so excited was he to be wearing something comfortable. It was clear that the woman would have taken her dog inside if she could, and since she couldn't, she wanted to make sure he was as comfortable as possible until she returned, even if she was only gone for a few minutes.
Hollie said, "When she got up and walked past me, I told her that what she did was incredibly sweet and thoughtful. She just replied, 'Thank you! I don't want him to be cold!'" Sitting in his jacket on the pavement, the cute pup attracted a lot of attention as people couldn't resist taking pictures of him or commenting on his comfy jacket. She added: "I saw two or three other people walking past him saying he looked very cute and very warm." Finally, Hollie's bus arrived. As she got on, she looked back at the jacket-clad puppy sitting proudly in his clothes on the pavement, waiting for his mother, who loved him so much she gave him the jacket off her own back.
