Woman's Best Friends: Stray Dogs Fed by Nice Lady Mourn Her at Her Funeral

If you're feeling emotionally tender in any way today, just be warned that after reading this you'll be in floods of tears.

Margarita Suarez lived in a small apartment in the Mexican city of Merida and was known locally for feeding stray dogs and animals who came near her block. When her health began to fail, she relocated and kept up the practice of feeding hungry animals on the street.

Sadly, Margarita passed away earlier this month. When her daughter, Patricia, brought her to the funeral home, she noticed several dogs had turned up and were allowed in by staff.  Patricia assumed it was just local dogs that the staff had allowed in. Not so, it would seem.

The staff said they'd never seen the dogs before. The dogs stayed beside Margarita's coffin and followed it to the local graveyard where she was buried.

We really think that's incredible. Dogs are The Best. And, it says something big about the power of kindness. 

What do you think? Are you a dog person? Is there a solitary tear making its way down your cheek right now?
