Dog Stops Traffic So Group Of Kids Can Safely Cross The Street

Such a thoughtful pup 💕

Unfortunately, there are still some drivers out there who apparently don’t know how to treat pedestrians with the respect that they deserve.

But this little dog is doing his best to set them straight.

The other day, Beqa Tsinadze happened upon a curious scene in the town of Batumi, Georgia. There, at a clearly marked crosswalk, a group of young kids were waiting for cars to yield so they could safely cross the road.

Regrettably, though, it seems that many drivers weren't eager to extend that courtesy without being told to.

So, that's exactly what this dog did — taking on the role of crossing guard on the kids' behalf.

Here's that moment on video:

The thoughtful dog tackled the situation like a pro. But apparently this wasn't just a one-time thing.

Tsinadze shared another video of the same dog stopping traffic and escorting yet another group of kids across the street.

Though it's unclear why the pup came to adopt the role of crossing guard, it may be as a way of saying thanks.

According to Georgian media, the dog arrived to the area as a helpless stray a few years back, and has since endeared himself to members of the community who have taken it upon themselves to care for him.

The report above states that the dog goes by several names among folks in the neighborhood who know him — but there's no doubt that you'd be safe in calling him a very good boy.
