Hachiko

I watched a Japanese movie called "Hachiko" last week. Hachiko was an Akita born in the city of Odate, Japan in November 1923. He was adopted by a professor, named Ueno from Shibuya, Tokyo. Hachiko and his owner cannot be separated from the start. He would accompany Professor Ueno to Shibuya Train Station everyday when he left for work and returned from work routinely. Unfortunately in 1925, Professor Ueno passed away. However, Hachiko still returned to the train station everyday to wait for him. He routinely waited for his late owner without fail for 10 years till he died on the same waiting spot in 1935. Hachiko's faithfulness and loyalty moved the people around him.He was known as Japan's most faithful dog. A statue of Hachiko was erected in remembrance of him.

Watch it if you're a dog lover :)
