Stray Dog, Shivering In Rain, Receives A Touching Gift From Woman. Watch

A woman's viral act of kindness towards a stray dog garnered viral attention last year. Now, a video of that incident has resurfaced on social media, and it has touched thousands of hearts all over again. The video, filmed in Turkey, shows a woman giving her scarf to a dog shivering in the rain. 

According to Ladbible, the woman was identified as Duygu Elma. In the video, she was seen hoisting her umbrella up to protect herself against the rain. Then, noticing a dog shivering in the cold weather, she was seen covering it gently with a scarf in a gesture that has won hearts. The footage, posted online in January last year, won Elma a lot of praise and appreciation. 

This morning, the video was shared on Twitter by Indian Forest Services officer Susanta Nanda. "God does not look at your possessions, but he looks at your heart & deeds," he wrote while sharing it. Watch it below:
