On November 12, 2023, in Mangya City, Haixi Mongol and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Qinghai Province, a kindly stray dog helps a passing driver retrieve a hat that fell off during their road trip.

As the filmer and her companion got into their car, a hat of theirs fell to the ground and was noticed by this stray dog, who excitedly picked it up and ran after the car. When the filmer stopped the car, the dog politely placed the hat in front of them and returned it to the owner of it.

The filmer said in surprise that they had thought the stray dog was happy for finding a new toy, not realizing that it wanted to give it back to them. The stray dog's politeness and cleverness impressed netizens, one of whom introduced the stray dog, which she found out was kept by a nearby factory and was playing outside for the past few days. She expressed that she would adopt the smart puppy when as soon as it came home.
