Olivia Sievers is a flight attendant and dog lover from Germany. Her flight routes often take her to Buenos Aires, Argentina, and she usually stays in the same hotel while she’s there. One day, she happened to see a stray dog outside the hotel.

The kindhearted flight attendant decided to give the dog something to eat. And just like that, the dog fell in love with her.

The dog, who Sievers named Rubio, started hanging out outside the hotel, waiting for Sievers to come back. When he saw her, his tail started wagging, and he flopped on his side and ask for belly rubs.

After this happened once, Sievers tried to avoid Rubio. She told Noticero Trece:

“I tried to change my way because I didn’t want that he follow me back to the hotel. “But it was not possible. He always came back and followed me. I tried one hour, but he always watched me and followed me. He was really happy that somebody gave him attention.”

Once it became clear that Rubio wasn’t going anywhere, Sievers continued giving him food. She also sometimes wrapped him an airline blanket to keep him warm.

She decided to contact a local animal shelter to see if they would bring Rubio in. They agreed to take him, but Rubio quickly escaped and went back to Sievers’ hotel, where he patiently waited for her.

Finally, Sievers decided to adopt Rubio and bring him back to Germany with her.

Rubio quickly adapted to life in Germany. He loves spending his days running around Sievers’ backyard and playing with her other dog.

She also takes Rubio and her other dog out to a local lake. Rubio enjoys looking down at the fish in the water.

When it’s really cold out, Rubio loves snuggling up by the wood-burning oven.

Rubio’s life changed drastically on the day that he met Sievers. He went from a tough life on the streets to a beautiful home with owners who love him and another dog to play with. We’re so glad Rubio and Sievers found each other!
