Alla Morozova is the owner of a shelter in Novosibirsk, Russia, where Maru, a noble Bullmastiff dog, was adopted by a couple when she was five months old. Unfortunately, after six months Alla received a call from the couple claiming to have allergies to animals so they needed to return her to the shelter.

Alla said:

“I never give up my dogs and when they adopt one, it is stipulated that the owners should inform me if they can no longer have it.”

Given the situation, it was decided to send Maru on a train back to the shelter and an assistant agreed to take care of him, but after approximately 125 miles of the trip (201 km), the train stopped at a station near Achinsk and the dog escaped. , according to The Siberian Times .

Faithful dog walks more than 200 km to look for the family that abandoned her

Maru was very scared, the people she trusted the most had abandoned her, and the train was too noisy.

She jumped the compartment door, kicked the handle, and nearly knocked the driver out of her way.

No one was able to detain her. Maru’s manager immediately contacted the couple to report her disappearance, and they contacted Alla, who requested that they go to the Achinsk area and search for her, but both refused.

The couple showed no concern, as if the dog was no longer under their responsibility at all.

Maru is believed to have been walking from that station to the Krasnoyarsk industrial zone.

There, for his part, he decided to spread messages about Maru through brochures and social networks.

After two and a half days the dog was found in an industrial area of ​​Krasnoyarsk trying to get to the home where she had been rejected, she was injured and tired, with “tears in her eyes” according to her rescuers.

She had to go through the Russian forests, plagued by brown bears and wolves. It’s amazing that he survived and that he has such a developed sense of location.

Geographically, she had no reference point at all. In the city he used to walk alone in the courtyard, he never went anywhere else.

Maru was tired, lame, her legs, her pads and her mouth were injured. She had fallen off a train embankment before being found.

Had she not been injured, the noble dog would surely have returned to the place she considered her home.

Now Maru is under treatment to overcome her ordeal with her biological parents in the shelter in Novosibirsk, and is also under treatment for her injuries.
