A video circulating on social media has left viewers in awe and fits of laughter as it captures the unconventional journey of a Labrador being carried 3.5 kilometers down a mountain after injuring his paws.
The clip, which has over 5.2 million views since it was posted on Instagram on February 9, showing the dramatic rescue mission of Kai the Labrador during a hiking mishap back in November.
In the video, we see various good Samaritans taking turns to carry Kai down the mountain, as the furry adventurer adamantly refuses to walk the last stretch to the mountain’s base. The scene takes a comedic turn when one of Kai’s carriers hilariously collapses upon reaching the bottom, with the Labrador in tow.
The dog’s owner, sharing the post on Instagram, recounted the incident, saying, “Our Lab got hurt on a hike and had to be carried down the mountain.”
The post, captioned with a mix of remorse and humor, sheds light on the lighthearted side of the challenging situation, “He tore his paw pads and refused to walk the last 3.5 km so this is what we had to do to get him down!”
Hailing from Vancouver, Canada, Kai and his owner have gained a loyal following of over 12,900 on their Instagram account, where they document Kai’s daily escapades and cherished moments. This heartwarming tale of friendship and resilience continues to warm the hearts of viewers worldwide.
