A video of a busy city road in India has been making the rounds on Twitter, winning people’s hearts.
The 41-second clip shows a stray dog, standing by a traffic policeman waiting to cross the road at a safe time. The road is occupied by commuters, until the policeman steps forward under the glaring sun and stops traffic to let the doggo pass.
Take a look.
Adorable 😍 clearing the road for a very important “pedestrian”

Netizens dropped comments marvelling at the unsaid understanding between dogs and humans. The cop has also been getting loads of appreciation.
Too cute. Understanding between the cop n the dog is unbelievable. And the patience with which dog is waiting should be emulated

Deserve to be awarded. Sensitivity towards stray animals is commendable.
