Hachi, A Dog's tale

This is a real and story from a dog's tale in Japan. This very special friend 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. During his daily visits, Hachiko touches the lives of many who work near and commute through the town square. He teaches the local people love, compassion and above all unyielding loyalty.

TRUELY THE STORY OF A "MOST LOYAL" AKITA

Beloved by all who hear his story "Hachi-ko" has truly touched the hearts of people around the world.His legend lives on larger than life.

Daily Professor Eizaburo Ueno walked to Shibuya Station to board the train to Tokyo, accompanied by his Akita named Hachi. Once there Hachi-ko (as the professor affectionately called him) remained behind as the professor boarded the train for the commute to Tokyo Imperial University.

Hachi-ko would greet his master precisely at 3 p.m. as he returned on the afternoon train. One day Hachi-ko waited patiently as he did every other day, but his master was not on the train.Tragically, Professor Ueno had died suddenly at the University that day having suffered a stroke. Hachi-Ko waited long into the night, friends of the professor come for him, sending him to a new home some miles away. But Hachi-ko would continually run away to return to his former home with the professor he would then go to the station to again keep vigil.

Hachiko continued to meet the 3:00 train every day, hoping his beloved master, to whom he was so devoted, would return. The former gardner of the professor, Kikuzaboro Kobayashi, fed and cared for Hachi-Ko but allowed him to mourn his own way. The station Director, realizing why the dog returned each day, also gave him shelter from the weather and began to feed him as did many people so moved by his faithfulness. Hachi-ko became a landmark; his unaltering routine became well known to communters, his fame spreading nationwide. Japanese schoolbooks talk of his great love for his master, serving as an example of loyalty. He was both pitied and admired. Many people traveled to Shibuya Station for the express purposed of seeing Hachi-ko, often presenting him with food, gently touching his head for luck!
