  • Lauri da Costa was hospitalized eight days while dog Seco waited outside for him
  • The homeless man was smashed in the face with a rock but was diagnosed with melanoma while receiving treatment
A homeless man hospitalized in Brazil after a random attack has a best friend in his dog who waited eight days in the hospital parking lot until being able to see him.  His dog Seco stayed outside in the parking lot, likely expecting him to return soon. His owner instead was inside eight days until they were reunited.
 
Seco sat patiently out front of the hospital waiting for da Silva to emerge.
But he didn’t, according to a local news report translated by The Dodo.  The man was hospitalized while waiting to have the surgery – hours turned into days and days into more than a week.  Staff eventually began feeding Seco and giving him water while the loyal pooch waited for da Costa.  His owner was still recovering from surgery when the pair were reunited for a few minutes.
 
The dog jumped around wagging its tail and smelling da Silva, almost in disbelief it finally saw him again.  Seco licked da Costa’s face and jumped into his lap while furiously wagging his tail.  The bandaged, recovering man flashed several smiles at his loyal companion.  The man will not be discharged for some time, according to the report, but Seco has resumed waiting for his owner – proving he is man’s best friend.
