Watch ESPN's New Video On Arthur - The Stray Dog Who Befriended A Swedish Extreme Sports Team

March 7, 2017

The team didn't choose the dog. The dog chose the team.

You may recall the story of a stray dog befriending a Swedish extreme sports team making international news in 2014.

Feeling sorry for him, the team fed the dog while having a meal in the Ecuadorian rainforest. But as the team stood up to continue their 430-mile race, the dog started to follow them - and he didn't stop.

He swam alongside them while they kayaked down rivers, dragged himself up hills during hikes and pulled through knee-deep mud during treks.

ESPN just released a beautiful video story about the dog who was eventually given the name Arthur.

Watch the video below.
