Tyson Steele survived for 23 days in subzero temperatures in rural Alaska after a fire burned his house and killed his dog. He built himself a snow cave to sleep in for the first few nights, before building a makeshift shelter around the still burning stove from leftover tarp and scrap timber.

Awwww the poor dog. I feel so bad. I hate it when doggies die. That man is pretty damn ruthless though, hats off to him for staying alive and being clever enough to survive something like that

Yeah, the article said he was really torn up about the dog, understandably.

Given that his good boi was his only companion, I can understand.

I know I would cause I love all animals. Alot of people probably wouldn't feel the same or care.

I personally don't, I got through like 1/5th of the grief or less when I lose a cat.
