Dog brothers: Blind husky gathers the courage to jump down a bench with the help of his sibling

Husky patiently teaches his blind brother to jump down a bench before the scared pet finally gathers the courage to take the leap

  • Footage of a dog helping his blind sibling leap down a bench has gone viral 
  • The disabled pet, Da Bao, got stuck on the furniture and was scared to jump
  • His younger brother, Ju Bao, repeatedly encouraged him and showed him how
  • The dogs’ brotherhood has moved millions of people on social media in China 

This is the heart-warming moment a blind husky finally finds the courage to hop down a bench with the help of his caring brother.

Sightless Da Bao initially appears scared while pacing back and forth on the outdoor furniture in China.

He eventually makes the leap of faith after his younger brother, Ju Bao, repeatedly encouraged him and patiently showed him how – despite the fact that Da Bao can’t see.

The touching video was filmed yesterday afternoon in the city of Xiangyang in central China’s Hubei Province.

According to the dogs’ owner, Mr Chen, Da Bao and Ju Bao are five years old and came from the same litter.

Da Bao, whose name can be translated as ‘big treasure’, was born without eyeballs. Therefore, Ju Bao, also known as ‘giant treasure’, has been acting as his eyes all these years.

‘Da Bao loves interacting with people, but because of his birth defect, he is more scared of strangers,’ Mr Chen told MailOnline.

‘On the other hand, Ju Bao has a strong sense of justice and has been protecting Da Bao since they were puppies.’

To look after Da Bao, Mr Chen opened a pet resort in Xiangyang so that he could spend more time with him and his other dogs.

On Sunday, Da Bao managed to overcome his fear and jump down the bench at the resort after getting stuck on it.

A trending video shared by Mr Chen starts by showing Da Bao whining while poking his head over the edge of the bench.

'Da Bao loves interacting with people, but because of his birth defect, he is more scared of strangers,' Mr Chen told MailOnline

Seconds later, Ju Bao leaps onto the bench in an apparent attempt to help his brother.

Ju Bao tries to drag Da Bao by biting the back of his neck before jumping down the bench to teach Da Bao.

After repeating both actions, Ju Bao hops back onto the bench, determined to help Da Bao down.

He gives Da Bao a bite on the back for the third time, and miraculously, Da Bao leaps forward and lands on the ground safely – as Ju Bao follows him.

The two huskies’ brotherhood has moved millions of Chinese web users. The clip has amassed more than two million clicks since it was uploaded onto Douyin, the Chinese version of TikTok, yesterday.

One fan said: ‘Dogs’ emotional is pure. That is why so many people like dogs. In comparison, such sincerity is lacking between humans in reality.’

Another viewer praised: ‘All creatures have emotions. Please treat them nicely.’

A third Douyin user said: ‘I cried so much watching this video.’
