A golden retriever was filmed refusing to leave his sick owner's side as he slept using a ventilator for the first time. The dog, named Mao Mao belongs to Mr Shao who lives in the city of Xinxiang in Henan Province. Two-year-old Mao Mao can be seen in the clip putting his head on his owner's chest as he lays in bed, wearing the ventilator. Mao Mao has continued to stay beside Shao when he sleeps ever since that first night with the ventilator. The results also showed that 71% of new owners are concerned their dog will have separation-related issues once life returns to normal.
