The bonds that human beings form with dogs are one of the most special things in the world. On more than one occasion, these furry nobles have helped us get through the most difficult moments. A true proof of this is the beautiful friendship of a soldier named Alec Alcoser and his fellow German Shepherd Alex. Alcoser and his little dog served for six months in Afghanistan.
For many years, Alcoser and the furry boy were part of important missions in the army. However, their relationship was severely tested.
Every time they faced a mission together, it was impossible to separate Alcoser from his best friend. The loyal little dog slept next to him and followed him everywhere. This is a true friendship. Only they know the things they have had to face together,” said a user on the networks.
One day, they headed out to walk through territory where they thought they would be safe. They saw a man walking towards them calmly.
They would never have imagined that they would suffer an attack with explosives. The man was carrying a bomb and when he detonated it, a strong fire started that threatened their lives. Alcoser and Alex received medals for their bravery.
Alcoser only remembers being injured, unable to move, but hugging his faithful friend, the dog refused to separate from Alcoser. When everything was over, other soldiers found them.
Many people lost their lives that day, it was a miracle that Alcoser and the German Shepherd survived. Alcoser suffered a brain injury, could not walk and had a series of fractures.
The soldier was immediately transferred to a rehabilitation center. It would be a long recovery process and doctors recommended she focus on his health.
However, Alcoser only thought about his little dog and wanted to know how he was doing. Alex had been taken to a veterinary center where they had to amputate one of his hind legs. Alex had been hit by shrapnel in 30% of his body.
The most difficult thing for him was learning to walk on three legs. They both missed each other so much that they decided to organize a series of visits. In the midst of tears, Alcoser was moved to return to his new friend. They had gone through the most difficult experiences together and it was clear that they did not want to separate again. They need each other,” said one Internet user.
As soon as he regained his strength, the soldier took all the necessary steps to adopt Alex and give him a forever home. Now, both are finishing their recovery at home and will soon return to their missions.
What do you think of this touching friendship? This loyal little dog is the best fighting companion Alcoser could ask for. Feel free to share this moving story.
