Heart breaking story all around. Kind of reminds of a story a few years ago where a male goose (may have been a duck) had a mate. I believe geese have life long mates.

Anyway, the mate of male goose was killed a by a passing car. Well, the male goose stood there in the same position along the side of the road for like two straight weeks calling to his mate.

Animals are amazing to me.

Some people will spoil any story with politics. I pity them.

Good dogs ...

I'm driving down a country road. Below the speed limit, because it's quite twisty.

I come up on a little rise ahead. There's a big black dog sitting on top of it. Just sitting there, looking down the road at my car.

I creep up to it. On the other side of the rise ... there's a goddamn toddler playing in the road.

She toddled off towards the trailer, doggy right behind. I didn't pursue. Mom was probably passed out drunk, who knows.

I could only think "good doggy, good doggy", because without doggy, I would have popped over that rise at 40 mph and had no chance of stopping.

Great story! Thx.
Dogs are more amazing than many of us realize (esp me); I'm more of a cat person.

Not just dogs, which are very special, but I find ALL animals amazing too.
Including ants and spiders.

I had a pair of pet geese. My dog died of old age and there was no yard guard at night. A bobcat (later was discovered it was a bobcat) got a hold of the female goose's head almost crushing it. I came out for the big ruckus and let a few shots go so the bobcat released my goose. She was in a very bad shape. The male was tending to her for weeks, never leaving her side for a minute. I fed them - as much as the poor female could eat - on the spot. She miraculously recovered.

So.What do you think? The dog is waiting for it's owner? What is heart breaking about that?

Oh, you think the dog KNOWS the owner is dead?

Hachi: A Dog's Tale (2009) - IMDb

 

[Procrustes Stretched]

The closing cards reveal information about the real Hachikō, who was born in Ōdate in 1923. After the death of his owner, Hidesaburō Ueno, in 1925, Hachikō returned to the Shibuya train station the next day and every day after that for the next nine years. The final card reveals that the real Hachikō died in March 1934. A photo of his statue in front of the Shibuya train station is the last image shown before the credits roll.

The dog did NOT know the owner/friend was dead. Nothing heart breaking there. What it is is heart warming or something else, but heartbreaking? get a life!

What a coincidence....our dogs are amazingly better behaved and more pleasant than most Conservatives I know. And usually smarter too.

Mine were definitely smarter than Libs, even if they did wait by the food dish...

At least they had jobs (stock or guard dogs) and worked for a living. Freeloaders didn't last...

Dante. Was absolutely and without a doubt one of the best pups ever. Dante was the name of Dante's pup. Shepard Mix. 100lbs. Well cared for. More as a companion than anything else.

 

[JOSweetHeart]

I wonder if the dog would be smart enough to go after the perpetrator should they ever come forward. You never know how smart a pet really is until after they have gone and done whatever it is that blows a person away.

God bless you and the dog always!!!

Holly

P.S. I guess that it would depend of whether or not the dog saw who was driving the truck that hit the woman.
