When I was travelling at Mall, located Lb bulus, I bought Hachiko DVD because I love so much about Dog stories, example Beverly hills Chihuahua, Underdog, Cats and Dogs , but only Hachiko story’s has a lot of messages for us.

This heart warming true story that I had watched is an American adaptation of a Japanese tale about a loyal Dog.

In 1924, Hachikō was brought to Tokyo by his owner, Hidesaburō Ueno, a professor in the agriculture department at the University of Tokyo. Hachiko is very special friend, he would accompany his master to the train station everyday and return each afternoon to greet him after work at Shibuya Railroad Station.

The pair continued their daily routine until May 1925 until one day His master had suffered a stroke when he was teaching at university that day, He died and never returned to the train station where his friend (Hachiko) was waiting.

Hachikō was given away after his master's death, but he routinely escaped, showing up again and again at his old home. And then Hachiko was going to his old home, but not founded, he was going to station, trying to found his master and still waiting.

Each day, Hachikō waited for his master to return. And each day he did not see his friend among the commuters at the station. Many of people who always had seen Hachiko and his master together at the train station. They gave foods and caring for Hachiko during he was waiting for his beloved master. This continued for 10 years, with Hachikō appearing only in the evening time, precisely when the train was due at the station.

Finally Hachikō died on March 8, 1935. He died at the same spot where his owner found him. His stuffed and mounted remains are kept at the National Science Museum of Japan in Ueno, Tokyo. His loyalty, faith, devotion and undying love makes everyone who had listen and seen this story must be touched. I hope we as a Person can learn from Hachiko although he’s just Dog but he has undying love until he died.
