Surveillance camera video touched countless hearts around the world in 2020. It shows how a woman abandons her dog with walking difficulties.
Facebook users were shocked by the callousness of a woman who stopped a white car and called two dogs out of the car onto the street. One is allowed back into the car immediately, but the other is not allowed entry.
The dog is apparently missing its front legs and is not fast enough. The woman gets into her car and drives away. At first the dog seems irritated, but he follows the car in the same direction:
How cruel can a person be?!

The fact check
The video has been circulating on Facebook since January 3, 2020 and comes from São Leopoldo (Brazil). However, it only shows the first attempt to abandon the dog. Unsuspecting rescuers had returned the dog to his owner, but he was rejected a second time by the woman's husband that same evening.

Conclusion:
People often underestimate the responsibility that comes with having a pet. The video is particularly touching because the woman differentiates between the dogs. She throws away the dog with walking difficulties and takes the other one back with her.
Many Facebook users are calling for the couple to also be deprived of their second dog and for a ban on keeping animals to be imposed. We hope Tim finds people who appreciate him.
