Expert speaks about dogs' reactions to owner's death

In an interview with Legit.ng, Fagbemi Alli Ajibola, the owner of FADEL Farms, shared how dogs may react to the demise of their owners.

The professional dog breeder said:

"A dog becomes aware of an owner’s death through sensory cues, the sudden and permanent absence of routines, emotional signals from others, and sometimes, direct exposure to the body. What they experience is not an understanding of death, but a deep recognition of loss.

"Dogs that have lived with an owner for many years often react very strongly to that person’s death. While every dog is different, long-term bonds tend to produce clear, grief-like behaviors that can last weeks or even months."
"Common reactions you may see include sitting by doors, windows, or the owner’s usual spot, following familiar routes at the time the owner used to come home, or sniffing the owner’s belongings repeatedly."

Reactions trail Sina’s dog at his burial

Many who came across the video shared their reactions after seeing the dog at the funeral.

@NarienZ said:

"May Allah ease your pain and that of all family members and friends of Sina and Abdullatif. May God forgive the sins of the two brothers and take them to jannah."

@Unknwonqueenxxx said:

"crazy part is in islam, animals like dogs can hear the deceased in the grave and are full aware of what is going. the dog looks so upset, she knows his gone. One thing about dogs is their unconditional love and loyalty to their owners man this one hurts differently."

@Sahar Bazzi said:

"He use to tell me about bella that she’s his life love. rest in peace uncle sina."
