The image of a couple walking small dogs on a motorbike loaded with luggage made passersby excited and quickly took photos. At first glance, it seemed that there were only 5 dogs following their owner home, but in reality, this car “carried” an amazing 15 “four-legged friends”.
The Covid-19 epidemic in southern provinces and cities is gradually being controlled, which is also the time when many people pack up their belongings… and travel thousands of kilometers to return to their homeland after a long period of unemployment.
People who leave home are mainly workers and poor laborers, so their luggage when they return home has nothing of value except a few clothes and a few personal items tied to the back of a motorbike. They brought all their luggage and most familiar things with them to return.
On that repatriation journey, many emotional moments were recorded and shared on social networks. The sharing and side by side of those far from home, the kindness of people across the provinces and cities when helping with bottles of water, meals, and wrapping cakes for the group returning home were also touching.
In that stream of people, the image of a poor couple driving a palanquin with many items such as fans, luggage, and sacks hanging around the car attracted the attention of many people. The couple still has many dogs. While the two dogs sat in the back to feel the wind blowing on their faces, the other two dogs sat in the back with their “mistress”. Only the smallest dog is held in his wife’s arms all the way.
The car was still running, the road was far, the seats were tight, occasionally the two “dogs” behind used their legs to crawl up, regaining balance. It was so hard, but the “bosses” still obediently lay still, without stirring or making noise. In particular, the detail of the owner occasionally looking back to look at her puppies, patting them, adjusting their posture to relieve fatigue, warms the hearts of anyone who witnesses it.
Returning to their hometown to avoid the epidemic, the couple braved the dangers of packing a car full of belongings and, most surprisingly, did not forget 15 “loyal friends”.
It seemed like that was the end, but no, what shocked everyone the most was that inside the basket tied to both sides of the motorbike were dozens of other small dogs. This is probably the motorbike trip with the largest number of members on the repatriation route of workers far from their homeland. And certainly the car also carried more than the prescribed amount, but no checkpoint stopped it or made a record.
At the rest stop, looking at the plump, obedient puppies made many people excited, asking to hold them a little to caress and caress them. The road back to their homeland was not without hardships, sun, wind, and fatigue… however, this couple could not bear to leave their small dog behind. Because perhaps for you, it is also a member of the family, you cannot bear to let it go, cannot bear to leave it behind, so you have to return to your homeland with it.
The couple and 15 “four-legged members” ended their repatriation journey when they arrived in Ca Mau.
After many days of hard driving. Late at night on October 8, the couple and their 15 dogs finished their journey from Ho Chi Minh City to Ca Mau safely. Perhaps this is not only the furthest motorbike ride of the couple, but also the furthest “backpacking” journey of the entire pack of dogs.
Currently, the above clips immediately after being shared online have received the attention of many people.
