The story of a pet dog in China that trembled with fear when it saw its owner shouting at her young son and daughter for fighting has delighted mainland social media.
The pet’s owner, surnamed Chen, from Sichuan province in southwestern China, filmed herself lecturing the children at home while they stood against a wall. The children can be seen crying as their pet dog shakes on the floor.
Chen said the children had been fighting while doing homework, which made her angry. She chastised the pair and ordered them to stand facing the wall.
When Chen turned around, she was surprised to see their dog quivering and tried to calm the animal down by telling it not to be scared.
The story has struck a chord on mainland social media.
One observer said: “Every time I have arguments with my family, my dog will run and hide.”

Man hands US$87,000 find to police
An elderly man has been praised for returning 634,000 yuan (US$87,000) in cash that he found in a paper bag along with deposit certificates while doing morning exercise.
The man, Xu Changshun, from Shandong province in eastern China, reportedly found the bag on the street on August 24.
Not having a phone with him or his reading glasses, he took the bag home after waiting 10 minutes to see if the owner would appear.
Surveillance footage shows Xu holding the bag and walking to the residential community where he lives. He then called the police.
“This is a whole family’s savings, and they must be desperate,” Xu said.
The police tracked down the owner and returned the property which was his life savings.
Many online observers praised Xu for his honesty.
One person said: “The owner is lucky. Otherwise, his money will be gone.”
“We should learn from him,” said another.
