Photos of a labradoodle being wheeled up a mountain in a wheelbarrow by his owner for one last walk are tugging at heartstrings all over the Internet.

Carlos Fresco, 57, took his 10-year-old labradoodle, Monty, up his favorite mountain in Brecon, Wales, where the duo hiked many times together before the dog passed away after months of battling leukemia, which rendered him unable to walk.

“I knew Monty was dying because his cancer had returned. He was diagnosed 18 months ago and responded very well to chemotherapy,” Fresco said.

“Even though he was weak, he enjoyed all the fuss and attention received by so many well-wishers.

The people in the hills were so kind and equally as saddened by his deteriorating condition.”

Fresco recalled strangers asking if they could help push Monty up the mountain during the hilly hike, as many onlookers shared tears at the sad sight of the sad sight of the four-legged labradoodle unable to walk on his own.

Monty passed away at the foot of Fresco’s bed after the duo was able to spend Father’s Day together.

“I would like to thank all the wonderful people we met at Brecon and in the hills for their true kindness and sympathy,” Fresco said with tears in his eyes.
