The 14-second clip shows the moments when the passerby dog decided to help the workers in pulling down the tree.

'My rope, it's mine'

The clip ends by showing all of them pulling the tree in harmony. Since shared, the 'passerby dog’ has won everybody’s heart and video has been viewed over 66.5 thousand times.

In a similar incident,  a member of the fluffy community won the internet 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.
