Japan's Most Famous Dog

In front of the Shibuya train station in Tokyo, there is a life-size bronze statue of a dog. The statue looks very small among the huge neon signs, but it isn't difficult to find it. People started to use it as a meeting point in 1934. Today you can see hundreds of people waiting there for their friends to arrive.

Hachiko, an Akita dog, was born in 1923 and brought to Tokyo in 1924. His owner, Professor Eisaburo Uyeno and he were best friends right from the start. Every day Hachiko accompanied his owner, a professor at the Imperial University, to Shibuya train station when he left for work. When he came back, the professor always found the dog waiting for him. Sadly, the professor died suddenly at work in 1925 before he could return home.

At that time Hachiko was still a young dog. But he loved his owner so much that he continued to wait at the station every day. Sometimes, he stayed there for days at a time. All the people at the station knew him and often gave him some food. In 1934, a statue of him was put outside the station. In 1935, Hachiko died at the place he last saw his owner alive.
