A Nigerian man identified as Andre Tha Mage on the micro-blogging platform, Twitter, has mourned his dog Douglas Brown in a heartwarming way.

This comes as little or no surprise as, a dog they say, is man’s best friend.

When a close friend passes on, it is only right that last respects are paid in honour of the dead, which is what has been done in the case of Andre Tha Mage and his dog friend.

In a tweet he made on Saturday, August 1, Andre revealed that Brown had taken ill.

However, days later, he said that the dog finally passed away, adding that death brought an end to their “8 years of friendship and loyalty”.

Andre thanked his late pet for being an excellent listener to issues he couldn’t tell anyone else other than his furry friend. While penning an emotional tribute, the dog lover added that he would also not forget the bite scars Brown gave him as he said that his love for the dog is forever.

“Thank you for the 8 years of friendship and loyalty, thanks for listening to me when I couldn’t express myself to anyone, I won’t forget the scars from your bite as well, love you forever buddyPleading face❤

RIP Douglas Brown 2012 – 2020.” he wrote.
