A golden retriever refused to leave a group of coronavirus medical workers who took care of it for more than 50 days in central China.

The video, filmed in the city of Huanggang in Hubei Province on March 19, shows a golden retriever staying among a group of medical workers who were about to take pictures on March 23.

A man was heard saying: "The dog really has tears come out."

Two men tried to take the dog away but it refused to move.

After the dog was dragged away, it can be seen running back into the group of medical workers again.

According to reports, the dog's owner could not go out to find the missing dog during coronavirus lockdown, so the golden retriever became a stray.

The coronavirus medical staff from Shandong Province always fed and played with the dog over the past 50 days and built up a good relationship with the pet.

The dog's owner has brought the dog back home, reports said.

3月19日，湖北黄冈，山东第二批援助湖北医疗队队员们在驻扎的酒店外面合影留念。一只流浪狗突然闯进了合影的队伍，粘着队员们撒娇。
在进驻黄冈的50多天里，山东医疗队的队员们经常会喂它吃的。有时候跟它一起玩，建立了深厚的友谊。
正在准备拍摄的工作人员把这位“不速之客”请了出来，没想到小家伙绕了一圈，又冲回了队伍。
原来这只金毛是在疫情期间走丢的，但受到疫情影响，主人根本无法外出寻找，这才发生了金毛被医疗队员投喂50多天的故事。金毛的感恩与不舍让人感动，而医务工作者的善良更让人暖心。
目前，金毛的主人已经找到，大家不用再担心医疗队离开后的金毛了。（视频由 齐鲁台提供）
