Some people put themselves in line to become heroes but other people become a hero and they never even try. That was the case in Turkey, when a man named Metin Can Şener was walking home from work one Saturday morning. A figure suddenly came out of the darkness and approached him. It wasn’t somebody who wanted to do him harm, however, it was a dog and he was eagerly wagging his tail as he saw Sener heading his way. Apparently, they had seen each other before but only during the daytime.
Şener owns a local coffee shop, so he is typically out in the area during the day. The dog hangs out at the coffee shop and they see each other frequently but this unusual meeting outside took place at almost 3 AM in the morning. “He comes to that street all the time,” Şener told The Dodo. “I always see him by the café.”
It was obvious that they had seen each other before but on this particular day, it seemed as if they interacted in a very special way. The dog was wagging his tail happily as he approached but now the two of them shared a moment that was caught on a security camera. Sener said, “We started dancing.”
You can see the moment for yourself in this video on Twitter:

They may have been strangers at one time but they certainly are not strangers any longer.
“We became good friends,” Şener said. “I already have four dogs, so I couldn’t take him home.”
The dog may be a stray but he also seems to be well fed, perhaps because he is so friendly to the locals. This random meeting is also something that seemed to have the right type of effect on Sener.
These two did not realize that a security camera had caught the encounter and that it would be shared online for the world to see. The café owner must have reviewed the security footage and then shared it with him the next day.
The posting has obviously gone viral.
“I was surprised to see it had been caught on camera. I thought it was so much fun,” Şener said. “I always like to dance with animals like this. I love animals even more than people.”
