From saving baby kestrels from the middle of the road to helping kindergarten kids cross the street safely, dogs are famous for lending their paws when needed. Recently, a member of the fluffy community yet again proved the point by helping a blind man by removing a tree branch from his way. While taking to Twitter, CP Pune City shared a heartwarming video of a German Shepherd showing ‘humanity’ towards the blind man. 

Shared on July 4, the short-clip shows a woman and her pooch crossing paths with a blind man. While the woman waved her hand in front of the blind man to see if he is actually disabled, the doggo, on the other hand, can be seen rushing back to remove the obstacle from the walking track. The dog at first jumps over the tree branch and walks away, however, after noticing the blind man, the pooch runs back and picks the bark of the tree from his mouth and places it on the side of the walking track.
