I watched the video, and it certainly is sad, but I think posting a video of someone's dead body on youtube is in extremely poor taste. It's bad enough that our media consistently exploits people in the name of news or entertainment, but a person's family should not have to suffer through the knowledge that their son/husband/brother's body is out there for all to see.

I'm also appalled by the tagline at the end: "Adopt a puppy!" It is so incredibly out of place, and again in poor taste (along the lines of that PeTA shark ad that capitalized on that kid who was attacked).

Ok, won't be watching this! I felt like I might tear up after reading all the comments. If you want to feel better, YouTube Kristen Bell on Ellen today. One of the funniest things I have seen in a while, and it even has an animal at the heart of it...

Half way through cried like a baby. It just shows the love and loyalty a dog has. That owner is very lucky to have a dog that cares so much. I hope the dog found a good home where they can be just as to the dog as the dog was to the previous owner

I attempted to watch this video when I saw it on Facebook but I couldn't do it. It hurt me to watch him. Sheww!

....Stupid female hormones...

I fell apart once I saw the dog come over and then curl up next to him. How sad for everyone in this... that was someone's son.... maybe someone's husband or SO... maybe someone's father... That's what kills me. And then to see this poor little dog so lost and so sad.... I can't help it... makes me cry like a baby every time I see something like this.

And some ignorant people say dogs don't have emotions or feelings.....

I watched it with the sound turned off so I wouldn't cry. Still got close.

Why did I watch it? That is so sad. That dog must have had a wonderful life to be that loyal! I hope he has a home now.
