A pet dog has helped its owners - a divorced couple - get back together, reports Chongqing Business News.

Xiao Bing and Fang Qi divorced last year after deciding they were not suited to each other.

But they were torn over what to do with their beloved pet dog, which they had spent five years raising together, when it came time to divide their joint property.

Custody of the dog was awarded to Fang, but it would not eat if it couldn't see Xiao now and again.

Therefore, the two agreed after discussion that Xiao could "visit" the dog once a week.

The weekly visits after their divorce rekindled Xiao and Fang's affection for each other and they decided to remarry.
