As kids, we’re told it’s polite to say thank you to someone who feeds us or gives us a present. It turns out, it’s not just humans who are taught manners. A polite stray pup in Thailand uses little gifts to show the woman who feeds him how much he appreciates her.

For years, Orawan Kaewla-iat has been feeding the stray dogs near her home.

She’ll put out bowls of rice for any hungry dog to snack on. One day, a dog she named Tua Plu and his mom began showing up at her house. To Orawan’s surprise, before Tua Plu began eating, he always made sure to give her a present.

“When he’s hungry, he will offer something to get fed,” Orawan wrote on Facebook, as translated by Coconuts Bangkok. “Every day he shows up with an object in his mouth — usually a leaf and sometimes a piece of paper. Before you feed other dogs, you have to feed Tua Plu and his mom.”

Orawan shared a video of Tua Plu’s thoughtful gesture on Facebook. In the video, Tua Plu carries a leaf down some stairs and places it in front of his bowl of rice. Once he’s sure Orawan has seen the gift, he tucks into the food.

The video of Tua Plu giving his sweet gift went viral in Thailand, and then it spread abroad.

Many people have asked Orawan about adopting the generous pup. But in the end, Orawan decided to take in Tua Plu herself.

Tua Plu has been living with Orawan for a little over a year, and the pup is still as sweet as can be.

Tua Plu still brings his adopted mom gifts whenever she feeds him. In return, Orawan provides him with tons of love. Orawan also still shares lots of photos and videos of Tua Plu on her Facebook page, including a video of the pup with one of his beloved leaves.




Kindhearted Orawan has also helped many other dogs in need in her neighborhood. She shares photos of all the animals she helps on her Facebook page.

In early October 2018, Orawan took in a dog with an open wound on his back. Orawan took the dog to the vet to get stitches, and then she brought the dog home and nursed him back to health.

Orawan also looks after the stray cats in her neighborhood, including a ginger cat with a head wound.

We’re sure Tua Plu is helping his mom take care of all the sick animals. Tua Plu is probably giving the cats and dogs plenty of leaves to help them feel better!
