This is the heartwarming moment a pet Pomeranian stared adoringly at its owner as she left for work.

The eight-month-old brown pooch named Micky stood on his hind legs by the door while sweetly looking at its owner in their home in Chonburi province, Thailand on June 18.

His owner Fang Arthitaya was about to leave for work when the dog ran up to the door and stared as the woman waved goodbye.

Fang said: ‘Micky gives me sad eyes whenever we leave the house every day. It’s the cutest thing to look at. I wish I could take him with us but there was nothing we could do.

‘We have been taking care of him since he was a puppy. He was like a little child but he does not become aggressive at all.’

The well-behaved pooch would then returned inside the house without being aggressive when the woman had left the property. He waits patiently for her to return.

Pomeranians are generally friendly little dogs and often make great alarm dogs as they are prone to excessive barking. They tend to be good with children but these small dogs are not as sturdy as the larger breeds so caution had to be practised.
