This very special friend, a loyal dog named Hachiko would accompany his master to the train station
every day and return each afternoon to greet him after work. Sadly his master
departs one day, passes away and never returns to the station. Hachiko
faithfully returns to the same spot at the station the very next day, and every
day for the next nine years to wait for his beloved master.
He teaches the local people love, compassion and above all unyielding
loyalty. Today, a bronze statue of Hachiko sits in his waiting spot outside the
Shibuya station in Japan as a permanent reminder of his devotion and love.
