Flight attendant adopts stray dog after it waited six months for her

A German flight attendant has adopted a stray dog after it waited six months for her outside a hotel where she had stayed the first time she had fed it.

Olivia Sievers first met the big mutt when she was out walking in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in January or February this year.

She had to leave the country to continue her job but every time she returned to Buenos Aires, the stray was waiting outside the hotel for her.

Ms Sievers arranged for the stray to be rehomed, but it escaped and returned to the hotel.

Eventually Ms Sievers decided she would need to adopt the dog, naming it Rubio and going through the lengthy procedure to bring it to Germany.

Rubio is now living happily in Germany with Ms Sievers.
