In a devastating video that was recently posted to YouTube, a brokenhearted Rottweiler named Brutus lays next to his 10-year-old brother Hank who died during the night. Brutus’ owner, who shared the video under the username Brettvett1, tried to make his pooch get up, but it was all in vain. Brutus simply refused to leave his brother’s side.

“Brutus does not want to leave him and will not budge, laying on top of his head. Brutus has never whined or cried out in pain the two years I have had him . . . But clearly you can see in his eyes, he is crying for his brother who had passed as his world around him just crumbled. We both grieve and cry for our brother. This is proof that animals do have emotions and feel pain just like we do.”
