Buboy had the habit of visiting Professor Carmelito Marcelo’s class for the past 4 years. The professor loved Buboy dearly and would often snack together with him. However, a stroke led to the 58-year-old’s untimely demise, leaving the oblivious Buboy orphaned and helpless once again.
In a heartbreaking viral video, an anxious Buboy is seen desperately pawing at the door of the professor’s classroom, hoping to see him. The students pity him and take him to the church to bid farewell to the professor. The poor dog breaks down in inconsolable whimpers once he sees the casket and realizes that his best buddy is gone forever.
