HACHIKO (book review #1)

Hachiko is about an Akita puppy that was lost and found by his owner at the Train Station in Japan.
Hachi, the dog's name, faithfully goes to the Train Station every day - awaiting his owner's arrival and greets him. 
This story is a heart warming story of the bond between a dog and his master. Akita puppies are a special breed and Hachi was a special dog.
Long after his master dies (10 years later), Hachi, who is very old, continues to wait at the Train station. Both his loyalty and determination shows the bond between this dog and his deceased owner that transcends time. Today, there is a statue of Hachiko at the Train Station in Japan in honor of Hachiko for is faith, devotion and undying love for his master.
