He was the best boy.
A dog named El Palomo was hailed as a hero earlier this month after he managed to lead police to his 84-year-old owner, who went missing in the desert after getting lost during a walk.
Gregorio Romero left his home on Nov. 27, 2022, for a walk in Moctezuma, Mexico, when he got lost.
Romero’s family reported the man’s disappearance four days later, claiming that it was not unusual for him to wander off to visit other villages and then return a few days later.
Ramona, Romero’s niece, said she grew concerned after several days had passed since Romero suffers from memory loss.
Members of the National Guard, the Municipal Police, the Municipal Civil Protection Unit and even trained sniffer dogs spent a week looking for the man.
It was then authorities turned to the man’s best friend, El Palomo, who managed to find his owner nearly 2 miles from his home a week later — on Dec. 4, 2022.
