Heartwarming stories are always welcomed, especially ones that involve a dog going on his own adventure.

A dog owner took to Facebook to thank the staff of SMRT at Buona Vista MRT station for finding his pup and looking after him.

Apollo's adventure

Karthik Nathan wrote that he might not have closed his door properly resulting in his dog, Apollo, jumping the fence and escaping in the early morning of Apr. 2, 2023.

According to Karthik, Apollo travelled about 1km from home, all the way to Buona Vista MRT.

The dog was then found by SMRT staff at Buona Vista, and they brought the pup to their office while they attempted to contact Karthik.

"Luckily, he was a good boy and didn't misbehave," he wrote.

SMRT commented under Karthik's post, thanking him for letting them know Apollo was found safe and sound.

"We're happy that our staff could assist you in locating him," they wrote in the comments.
