UN Pet dog of a 3-year-girl who spent 16 hours in the elements stayed by her side until she was found - SUCH A GOOD BOY

I wanted to post some good news because we need it.

The pet dog of a three-year-girl who spent 16 hours in the elements has stayed by her side until she was found this morning.

Three-year-old Aurora reportedly told her mum she was "looking for her" when she took the family dog for a walk from their property at Cherry Gully, south of Warwick, yesterday.

The alarm was raised after the child couldn't be found about 5pm, sparking a largescale search involving SES crews and two helicopters.

Max, the family dog who is deaf and partially blind, faithfully stayed with the little girl.

Grandmother Leisa Bennett found Aurora this morning and said the dog and young girl slept together in bushes about three kilometres from where she was last seen.

Remarkably, the child's only injuries were scratches and bruises from the rugged terrain.

There were fears the child could have fallen into one of the 17 dams near the property.

Police and the family have thanked volunteers, neighbours and the community for their efforts.

Queensland Police released a photo of Max, which has been liked on Facebook more than 11,000 times in one hour.

Dogs are honestly the best creatures on Earth. Max didn't abandon his little girl and his presence probably kept her from getting too scared or lonely.

if it was a cat, it would've left after a mere few minutes

Edit: dogs > cats, it's science

This just goes to further show what everyone knows already: Dogs are the best.

That dog is named Max, but with that kind of loyalty, Fido fits just as well.

Why was the little girl going on a walk with no adult present?

3-year-olds aren't exactly known for sound decision making.

That is seriously shitty parenting. I think the dog and the child were making a run for it.

I'm more a fan of female dogs, because I don't like how some of the males try to hump on people, but this doggo did very good.

Pretty standard dog move. I think more dogs than not would do this.

Spoiler

My dog come home without me once when I was a teenager, and my mother was PISSED at him. He never did it again.

When your dog is a more attentive parent then you I think it's time to reevaluate some things.

my cat stayed with me when I was deathly ill from pneumonia. But maybe that was just because I was really really warm from the fever.

They're pretty fast too. Hopefully the parents keep a better eye on her.

Stupid kid, "wonderful" parenting, good dog.

 

[Pina Colada]

They aren't called "man's best friend" for nothing!

 

[Prussian Blue]

Awh I want a dog even more now.

What a refreshing change of news. I'm so cynical I thought the title was going to turn dark, ie "pet dog of a 3 year old girl who spent 16 hours in the elements devouring her whole"

Females can hump people and other dogs as well.

Pretty much what one of my past dogs did to my oldest one. Why? Don't know. Establishing dominance maybe?

This is some of the best news I've ever seen, thank you so much!

I had an old female dog that did it to her sister. Dominance thing.
