The boy with Down syndrome is afraid of contact with other people, no one can even touch him. But a dog persistently stayed by, comforted, comforted and helped the boy change more positively.
A clip appeared on the social network that made everyone touched by the affection of a dog for a boy with Down syndrome. It seems that the sincere affection that the dog has for the boy has broken down all barriers and the “ice wall” that separates the boy from the world.
The image of a dog trying to be friends with boy Down has moved many people.
Herman, 5 years old, had Down syndrome since birth, so during his childhood he liked to play alone, not wanting to interact with anyone. The boy’s mother said: “He is very shy and afraid of people around him trying to get to know, talk, or touch him”. Then one day when he was sitting against the lonely wall as usual, a dog taller than his body appeared. It was a Labrador breed dog named Himalaya who was trying to approach the boy slowly.
Unexpectedly, that dog did everything to be able to contact even though Hermen didn’t have the slightest bit ofinterest. The dog patiently stood there, seeing that he seemed to be avoiding him, the dog touched the boy’s body with his paw. Gradually the dog put a paw on his shoulder like a close friend comforting him. Little Herman began to get used to it, no longer avoiding the dog, then Himalaya started lying down, rubbing his head against his leg. Those warm and very emotional actions have touched many people
.
The boy is no longer lonely, playing alone like before.
Since then, the “cold wall” separating boy Down from the world seems to have also been demolished. The boy actively reached out and hugged the dog and played with him comfortably, without warning. The boy’s mother saw this and was extremely happy, she shared: “Hernan does not like to be touched, but Himalaya is still patient and very gentle, maybe that’s why he is touched. and let the dog touch you.”
It’s great that he now has a friend who is always ready to be with him.
