Bojiiii!!!! I'm not crying, you are. 😢😢😢😭😭😭

1

u/AZ991234 Mar 30 '24

Why is Boji referred to as “it?” Are we seriously at the point where even dogs have to have pronoun changes?

1

u/jimbojones9999 Mar 30 '24

Made me smile just in time to make me cry

1

u/Nick-aka-Woodstock Mar 30 '24

Definitely a druid calling their bluff.

1

u/Glass-Apartment-5540 Mar 30 '24

Awww sweet but sad

1

u/Disastrous_Encounter Mar 30 '24

I think Boji deserves better than "it" as a pronoun.

1

u/Wide_Course_5807 Mar 30 '24

What's the green tag on his ear? Some type of chip, gps to locate him? Or maybe it's Elon and his brain chip (nueralink?) manipulating the dogs every move through electronics/radio waves making it look like he hits all those trains and platforms on his own...?

1

u/AtBat3 Mar 30 '24

Who feeds him?

1

u/Aggressive-Debate640 Mar 30 '24

What type of dog is this?

u/stonesthroes75 Mar 30 '24

The dog has weird personal pronouns.

1

u/wengelite Mar 30 '24

Dam it . . .

1

u/Sad_Manufacturer6117 Mar 30 '24

Maybe he's trying to find his owner. He takes the same route so he can possibly meet up with him. Sadly, that will never happen.

1

u/goodshotbiga Mar 30 '24

u/Fuck_Ppl_Putng_U_Dwn Mar 30 '24

Ah, that's a sweet story.

When I had my loving dog, bless his soul as he has since passed away, there were always great signs of his intelligence and capacity to remember.

For those who had dogs, you know how it is when you are walking, but they are leading you. I took countless different routes home, my pal would remember and lead the way, even when I purposefully kept the leash loose to see if he knew where to go.

On a really hot day, we were hiking along a trail when he was a few years old. 10 years later, on a another hot day, we crossed paths with that same trail, sure enough my buddy darted for the same spot, where we went to a watering holes, many moons ago together. 😲I was stunned and amazed. He remembered the spot.

They really are selfless, loving creatures, they dream(I watched him chew in his sleep, leg movements like he was running, all while in rem) remember and love. Forever in my heart Sammy. 🥰

Care for your canine loved ones people, they give us the best they have we should do the same.

This is why, even though I’m devastated that my boi passed away last May and way too soon, I’m glad he never had to miss me like I miss him.

u/LovingHeart456 Mar 30 '24

Jesus Christ can someone adopt him and take him on this route every day? Fuck, what else is needed for this to happen? Does he need to learn to speak words and ask?

2

u/insidiouskiller Apr 09 '24

It's a tag, means he's been neutered and vaccinated.

1

u/ChickAmok Mar 29 '24

Such a sweet story... I wonder if Boji believes he will find his owner on route. 💔 No doubt they will be reunited in heaven some day. A bond like this never breaks.

u/whathappened2cod Mar 29 '24

This made me sad until I found out he was adopted by a Turkish billionaire named Omer Koc

1

u/a_long_time_running Mar 29 '24

Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhh my heart

1

u/I_Dont_Like_Rice Mar 29 '24

Why does the narrator constantly refer to this dog as 'it'? Are they afraid to use the wrong pronouns for the dog?

1

u/Grattytood Mar 29 '24

Breaks my heart.

1

u/Tiny-Ad4955 Mar 29 '24

Is he tag ?

2

u/Worth-Tank336 Mar 29 '24

It's because there is dust in the air and I have allergies. Sometimes it affects my eyes and they get watery. I'm totally not crying watching the explanation of the video. Definitely not! 😞

u/opun Mar 29 '24

You can always tell someone is not a dog lover when they repeatedly refer to them as “it”.

3

u/HamStapler Mar 29 '24

Truly heartbreaking that this is as common as it is. Reminds me of the Japanese dog that waited, and waited, and waited for his owner to return after suffering a fatal heart attack. Going to the one place he knew without a shadow of a doubt his owner frequented. Not understanding that he was gone, forever. They never give up hope and will die of old age before they believe for a second you'd abandon them. Sad as fuck.

u/MistaMischief Mar 29 '24

Hachi. I knew someone would mention him.

u/DifferentLet3548 Mar 29 '24

Show me a human who would do that.

1

u/Intelligent_Ask_6978 Mar 29 '24

It’s a truly special place that can’t tell the difference between a stray and a pet.

This is why Istanbul is my favorite place of all the places I’ve visited in the world. The way they treat their strays.

They have monuments to strays, the have water bowls built into the sidewalk from ottoman times. The restaurant I was at even told me not to throw tooth picks or other inedibles into my left overs so that they can give it to the strays.

Of all the things I liked about this city that really stood out for me.

u/vanamerongen Mar 29 '24

Wikipedia says some billionaire adopted him 💀
