Arthur the Stray Dog

An interesting story at The Daily Mail of a Swedish team participating in the Adventure Racing World Championship that was adopted by a dog that accompanied them on their race through the Amazon.
As the group of four navigated the final two stages of the 430-mile Adventure Racing World Championship, the dog befriended them and was eventually given the name Arthur. 
Every grueling task the team face, Arthur would do the same. He swam alongside them while they kayaked down rivers, dragged himself up hills during hikes and pulled through knee-deep mud during treks.  
Even when the team tried to get rid of their new member out of concerns for his safety - he refused to leave.
Read the whole thing.
