This is the heartbreaking moment a loyal pet dog was found sitting by its owner's dead body after she was killed by a falling tree.<br /><br />The white poodle, named Mah, was travelling in the silver pickup truck with Boonsuan Chairat, 55, and his wife Kasem, 55, during a storm in Chaiyaphum, northeastern Thailand on Sunday afternoon (May 24).<br /><br />Midway through the journey a tree was blown over and landed on top of the car, crushing Kasem and killing her instantly. Her husband was trapped in the vehicle and was unconscious.<br /><br />Paramedics arrived and found the loyal pooch whimpering inside mangled vehicle. The heartbroken dog was injured but was selflessly trying to revive its dead owner.<br /><br />The rescue team removed the victim and placed her on a stretcher. Pictures show the loyal dog sitting beside his 'mother' while the workers were battling to save the injured driver and free him from the wreckage.<br /><br />The police later arrived and sent the dog to the vets. Officers believe the tree was brought down by the strong winds from a tropical storm and it landed on the car in a freak accident.<br /><br />Police Lieutenant Colonel Natthaphan Dechponkrang said the loyal pooch will be cared for by the vets until the driver or his family can take him home.<br /><br />He said: "The pet dog has been sent to the vets for the treatment and will stay there until the driver or their family are ready to take him home.<br /><br />"It was heartbreaking for us to see the dog caring for his owner more than himself even though he was also suffering from the injury."
