Online praise is being given to a dog who assisted her owner in finding her lost brother.
Idy the Staffordshire bull terrier can be heard yelling for her brother Atlas, a pitbull-boxer crossbreed who had vanished in the woods, in a video uploaded to TikTok on September 18 by user @axelleontherun.

Axelle captioned the image, which has earned over 90,000 likes and more than 670,000 views, “My little girl is helping us discover Atlas.”
In the video, Idy howls for her brother Atlas in between her owner’s shouts. The pair live with Axelle and her other dog, a pitbull named Dea, in British Columbia, Canada.
“Atlas ran away in the woods,” said Axelle in the post’s caption. “I was very anxious because he was gone for a while.
“Idy my staff felt my stress and started to help calling her brother!”
Users were touched by Idy’s concern for her sibling, showering her with praise in the comment section.
“Aww she was helping,” said Katrina Trace. “Smart little girl.”
“Clever dog!” wrote longdogs123. “The howling would have been heard a long distance away so your other dog could hear it.”
Other individuals asked for an update out of concern about Atlas. Axelle acknowledged that he had returned home safely in the comments.
