<p><span style="color: #000000;">After the wrath of Hurricane Harvey passed through Sinton, Texas this weekend, residents began the heart-wrenching reality of cleaning up and beginning their post-Harvey existence. Otis, a dog belonging to Salvador Segovia&#8217;s 5-year-old grandson, was certainly doing his part.</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">Tiele Dockens, who lives near Corpus Christi, Texas, first noticed Otis as he was sauntering down a residential street with a large bag of dog food in his mouth. Yes, Otis apparently realized the severity of the situation as well. Provisions for animals would not be forgotten as long as he was around.</span></p>
</div>
<div data-beacon="{&quot;p&quot;:{&quot;mnid&quot;:&quot;citation&quot;}}" data-beacon-parsed="true">
<p><span style="color: #000000;">“It was after the storm this morning when I went to town to check </span>damage<span style="color: #000000;"> on properties,” explained Dockens to <a style="color: #000000;" href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/hurricane-harvey-dog-looting-dog-food_us_599faaefe4b0821444c25eeb?utm_campaign=hp_fb_pages&amp;utm_source=lifestyle_fb&amp;utm_medium=facebook&amp;ncid=fcbklnkushpmg00000032">HuffPost</a>. “Lots of people were out in their yards and streets cleaning up branches, </span>trees<span style="color: #000000;"> and debris.”</span></p>
</div>
<h2><span style="color: #000000;">Otis the dog also gathered &#8220;supplies.&#8221;</span></h2>
<figure id="attachment_26211" style="width: 1584px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img class="lazy wp-image-26211 size-full" src="/assets/themes/ins/images/white.png" data-src="http://uplift.theepochtimes.com/assets/uploads/2017/08/Screen-Shot-2017-08-28-at-9.31.40-AM.png" alt="" width="1584" height="1049" /><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><noscript><img class="wp-image-26211 size-full" src="http://uplift.theepochtimes.com/assets/uploads/2017/08/Screen-Shot-2017-08-28-at-9.31.40-AM.png" alt="" width="1584" height="1049" /></noscript> (Facebook/<a href="https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10155437802501839&amp;set=a.10150293372646839.352788.509421838&amp;type=3&amp;theater">Tiele Dockens</a>)</figcaption></figure>
<div data-beacon="{&quot;p&quot;:{&quot;mnid&quot;:&quot;citation&quot;}}" data-beacon-parsed="true">
<p><span style="color: #000000;">The moment struck Dockens as being pretty darn funny in the face of tragedy, so she snapped a picture and posted it on her <a style="color: #000000;" href="https://www.facebook.com/tiele.dockens/posts/10155437802541839?comment_id=504274226578113&amp;comment_tracking=%7B%22tn%22%3A%22R%22%7D">Facebook</a> timeline with the hashtag #refugee. It went viral immediately, obviously resonating with many others as well. The picture (shown above), offered a bit of lighthearted Texas humor.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Otis, the German shepherd mix, may have been generously thinking of his dog friends, or maybe not. Many of the comments on her post were equally, if not more, funny than the picture itself. One individual couldn&#8217;t help but attribute Otis&#8217; ingenuity to being a Texan. “<a style="color: #000000;" href="https://www.facebook.com/tiele.dockens/posts/10155437802541839?comment_id=504274226578113&amp;comment_tracking=%7B%22tn%22%3A%22R9%22%7D" target="_blank" data-beacon="{&quot;p&quot;:{&quot;lnid&quot;:&quot;Must be a Texas dog&quot;,&quot;mpid&quot;:2,&quot;plid&quot;:&quot;https://www.facebook.com/tiele.dockens/posts/10155437802541839?comment_id=504274226578113&amp;comment_tracking=%7B%22tn%22%3A%22R9%22%7D&quot;}}" data-beacon-parsed="true">Must be a Texas dog</a> cause he can survive without help,” he wrote. Another responder wrote, &#8220;Otis totally wins the internet today!!!&#8221;</span></p>
<h2><span style="color: #000000;">Harvey spooked Otis.</span></h2>
<figure id="attachment_26115" style="width: 640px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img class="lazy size-full wp-image-26115" src="/assets/themes/ins/images/white.png" data-src="http://uplift.theepochtimes.com/assets/uploads/2017/08/Screen-Shot-2017-08-28-at-9.24.44-AM-e1503930211239.png" alt="" width="640" height="550" /><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><noscript><img class="size-full wp-image-26115" src="http://uplift.theepochtimes.com/assets/uploads/2017/08/Screen-Shot-2017-08-28-at-9.24.44-AM-e1503930211239.png" alt="" width="640" height="550" /></noscript> <span style="color: #000000;">(Google Maps)</span></figcaption></figure>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">65-year-old Segovia shared the story of how Otis ended up with the bag of food with <a style="color: #000000;" href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/animalia/wp/2017/08/27/a-photo-of-a-dog-carrying-a-bag-of-food-after-a-storm-hit-texas-went-viral-heres-his-story/?utm_term=.fecb0ab2b1a9">The Washington Post</a>. Right before the storm hit, Otis was placed in the house&#8217;s enclosed porch with water and food. But he apparently was spooked by the storm and ran right through the screen door.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">“I stuck my head out yelling and yelling, and no Otis,” Segovia told <a style="color: #000000;" href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/animalia/wp/2017/08/27/a-photo-of-a-dog-carrying-a-bag-of-food-after-a-storm-hit-texas-went-viral-heres-his-story/?utm_term=.fecb0ab2b1a9">The Washington Post</a>. “The following morning, I got out and kept yelling, circled the block and everything, and nothing. We didn’t know where Otis was.”</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Later, Docken&#8217;s found out that Otis and the bag of food had arrived safely at his home. However, some were questioning if the bag of food actually belonged to Otis or not! Hero or looter? We&#8217;re going to assume the best given the circumstances.</span></p>
<h2><span style="color: #000000;">You can help.</span></h2>
