Animals can make us smile, move us, but they also know how to leave us speechless. Their resourcefulness demonstrates how smart they are and what they can do in case of need. These abilities are gifts of nature, the fruit of instinct.

However, they also derive from the bond they have managed to establish with human beings. Those who love them conquer a special and eternal place in their hearts and in their memory. So that even if they are far away, they will always try to go home.

In the province of Samut Prakan, in Thailand, a rather unusual episode occurred with a dog at its center. The puppy, about 5 months old, had gone astray and his owners were looking for him everywhere. After who knows how long wandering, the little pup recognized the veterinary clinic where he had been taken for vaccination shortly before. He placed himself in front of the entrance and rising on his hind legs he started scratching on the window to attract attention.

The staff inside recognized him almost immediately, and so took him into their care. At first, the dog appeared rather agitated, but then when he realized that he had managed to get to a safe destination, he calmed down. Deep inside he knew that there were those who would help him to be reunited with his family.

The staff at the center immediately contacted the owners. On the other end of the phone, the puppy's "mom and dad" almost burst into tears, relieved to have found him safe and sound. Of course, no one can say whether it was luck or a pure coincidence.

However, it seems unlikely that the dog walked for hours and happened to be in the right place, just by chance. To describe the emotional complexity of 4-legged friends, the expression "he is just lacking speech" is often used. However judging by what they can do, maybe they don't really need it after all.
