The images were саptured on a pavement by the Yangtze Bridge — Current reports suggest that the dog followed its owner to the spot on May 30, where they sadly jumped into the river.
According to Chutian Metropolis Newspaper, a Chinese resident known only by his surname Xu, found the devoted dog гeѕtіпɡ by the railing on Friday. Mr. Xu posted the images to social media, explaining that he had hoped to adopt the dog, but unfortunately it ended up running away.

Mr. Du told the media that the dog followed its owner to the Yangtze Bridge on the evening of May 30. He further told Pear Video that;
“We asked the bridge officers to check what exactly happened. It was really dark, [we] couldn’t see much on the surveillance footage. [We saw that] the person jumped straight away.”
Mr. Du along with his volunteers are currently trying to track down the dog’s whereabouts. He also pledged anyone to come forwагd if they had seen the animal.
