Security Cams Just Caught A Man Doing The Sweetest Thing For A Freezing Homeless Dog
After a recent theft, a resident from the city of Giresun in Turkey was reviewing security camera footage when he saw something that restored his faith in humanity – a man helping a freezing stray dog. The person approached a homeless pup, gave it some food, and even took the jacket off his back. The video was shared on social media and immediately went viral, which helped to identify the mysterious hero. Turns out, he is Bülent Kalpakçıoğlu, a municipal worker in Giresun, who humbly said that was the least he could do. “If I did not give my jacket, it would have eaten at my conscience,” Kalpakçıoğlu told The Dodo. “While we are sitting warm at home, they are outside in the cold.”
Giresun Mayor recently awarded Kalpakçıoğlu for his exemplary service. “With this action, he gave a lesson in humanity,” the officer said during his remarks, adding: “Animals are our friends. We love people, we love our city, we love all living things that are an integral part of us and our city.”

awww bless his heart but a part of me wish he would've provided a shelter for the dog even if it was just temporary (considering the weather condition)
I feel the same way, it broke my heart watching him walk away 😢

Turkish people are ALWAYS helping the stray animals!! I love that country...
I admire his noble heart and how unattached he is from material possessions. I mean, how many of us would just leave our jacket to a stray dog... to anyone! A lesson for all of us, myself included.
He gave him a coat... why didn't he bring him with him so he didn't die ?
Oh wow. Makes my heart full of joy. God will surely bless this man bc of his selfless act of charity and love towards the animal.
I want to scoop it up and bring it home and show it all the love and care in the world! Can't stop crying. :,(
Dogs are really just children, after almost 49K living with us. And they need to be treated that way, just as I treat and love my CharlieK. If this poor child was abandoned or mistreated, it should be helped, by finding someone who will assist them over the long run. This video gives me a sense of theater, and not spontaneous. If it isn't I apologize.
