Boncuk came back every day even after family members tried to take her home.
The dog - called Boncuk, which means bead - followed the ambulance that carried Cemal Senturk to the hospital in Trabzon on Wednesday, January 14, the Turkish news agency DHA reported.
Senturk's family took her home, but Boncuk returned to the Medical Park Trabzon Karadeniz Hospital every day, DHA reported. Senturk and Boncuk were reunited on Wednesday - six days after Senturk was admitted to hospital - when he was briefly brought outside in his wheelchair, the AP reported.
Senturk told DHA: "She's very used to me. And I miss her, too, constantly."

I had an Old English Sheepdog that hung out with me at a camp where I worked and lived with my family. One day I went in the office through the back door while Nellie was roaming a bit. Not thinking about her, I left out the front door, got in my truck, and left for a week long workshop. My boss said he heard her barking at the back door so went and told her I wasn't there and to go home. Wouldn't go even after he let her in and she checked everywhere. Ended up having to wait until my wife got home, call her, and she finally got Nellie to head home with her.
