Sassari, owner dies after a long illness: dog Ares has been waiting for him for months behind the door.

For him, his dog was like a son. And for Ares, his owner, Sergio, meant everything for the five years of his life so far. But now the relationship between the two has broken down because the man lost his life in Sassari a few months ago after a long illness, and his four-legged friend, an Amstaff, is still waiting for him to return, to open the door and hug him again . It's a touching story from the capital of Sassari that testifies, once again, to the deep bond that develops between humans and dogs.

The Sassari City Council's Environment and Stray Animal Department became aware of the situation, alerting the AEOPC Sassari Animal Protection Unit and the city's Lida Section. They are working hard to find Ares a loving and caring family . They continue to work every day to find new homes for the many animals living in shelters, waiting months and years before they can find a new owner. The hope is that Ares, with his docile and affectionate nature, will not have to wait long.
