Ah, okey, now i get it. it’s about a guy that commits a crime caring zero for people but then feels sorry ’bout his sick dog.
Eeeeerrrr ok.

Well Señorita, if you aren’t just the image of compassion I don’t know what is!

Anybody else hear that whoosh as the point went soaring over Senorita’s head? lol
Seriously though, this made me cry too. :(

The look on the dog’s face at 4:03 just kills me.

It should have come with a warning… I could get past 2:41. I wasn’t just crying I was weeping!

Señorita Puri, I hope you lose something you love, since you’re heartless, maybe it won’t hurt that much.

Yeah, I didn’t cry… I wept too. But makes me feel grateful for all the love I’ve gotten to experience in my own life with animals. So not a bad exchange for a few minutes of tears. Hard but beautiful. Kinda like life.

@Señorita, I don’t think it is that simple…
Beautiful video anyway.

I’ve just heard that this video is a viral for RayBan….
If so, I am well impressed with their marketing team…

Senorita, you missed the most valuable lesson. Your dog loves you unconditionally and it doesn’t matter what kind of life you have led, she/he will always be there for you. And no matter your transgressions, you should be there for them at the end also. That is a true measure of love. I had my lab put down in my family room by our vet. It was heartbreaking yet she was so sick, I felt that it was a relief for her. It was comforting to know that she was safe and loved at the end.
