The Shepherd Dog Barked at His Owner’s Coffin and Trampled the Flowers: When the Coffin Was Opened, the Attendees Were Shocked

The Shepherd Dog Barked at His Owner’s Coffin and Trampled the Flowers: When the Coffin Was Opened, the Attendees Were Shocked

The day of the funeral had come, and the funeral procession slowly made its way to the cemetery. Among those present was the officer’s family, with whom he hadn’t been in contact for almost five years. They had traveled from far away that morning. By the coffin, his colleagues — officers in strict uniforms — were already waiting. And next to them, with his head lowered and heavy gaze, walked the dog — German Shepherd named Max.

Max was not just pet. He was the deceased officer’s partner, service dog who had gone through dozens of operations with him. When the warehouse was robbed, and the officer died under strange circumstances, Max was there. Since that day, he hardly ate, didn’t play, simply stared into the void and whined.

Now, he sat by the soldiers’ feet, right by the coffin, which was covered with colorful flowers. People quietly cried.

And then Max stood up. His ears perked up, and his nose pressed against the edge of the coffin. He sniffed the lid, then suddenly jerked back, growled… and began barking loudly. This was not an ordinary bark. People flinched. Several officers rushed to the dog, thinking he couldn’t control his emotions.

— Take him away, — whispered one of the women.

The dog struggled to get to the coffin, howling, scratching at the wooden lid with his paws.

The commander standing nearby frowned. He knew this dog. Max never barked without reason.

— Open the coffin, — he said firmly.

— What? Why? — the relatives protested.

— OPEN IT.

When the lid was slowly lifted, silence hung over the cemetery. Everyone froze for second… then loud scream of horror was heard.

There was not the right person in the coffin.

Not at all. strange face, strange uniform, strange body. It was someone else.

Max growled softly but relieved — it wasn’t his owner. He was right.

Later, it was revealed that fatal mistake had occurred at the morgue: the tags had been swapped. The bodies of two men — the officer and civilian — had arrived almost simultaneously, and in the rush, one had been issued in place of the other.

The real body of the officer was found day later in different hall. He was buried properly — with honor.

Max stayed with him until the end.
