A massive Saint Bernard appeared on a flight, drawing attention from many passengers due to its special status. Initially, passengers thought it was just a regular pet dog, but upon inquiry, they discovered a heartwarming story behind it. After the therapeutic scene was exposed, many netizens called for greater understanding and acceptance of such animals.
A netizen named "Zhang Xu has fifty St. Bernards" shared a short video on social media, showing a passenger bringing a large dog onto the plane, which sparked heated discussion. From the footage, it can be seen that after other passengers settled into their seats, the dog lay down in the aisle to rest. It was later revealed that the four-year-old Saint Bernard was both a therapy dog and a hearing assistance dog, specifically trained to support a passenger with slight hearing impairment and anxiety.
The dog's owner mentioned that the Saint Bernard usually accompanies a 98-year-old grandmother and hopes more people will understand that Saint Bernards are a breed capable of helping and healing humans. After the dog's identity was revealed, netizens were moved, leaving comments such as "Very warm, thank you for the understanding," "Give more love to the furry kids," and "This scene is truly touching." Some also expressed that dogs are truly humans' best friends, especially needed by special groups, and hoped for more understanding and acceptance.
