Like Us on Facebook

"Hachi: A Dog's Tale" was a film based on a true story about a faithful Akita dog. His master is Parker, a college professor. Everyday, Parker walks Hachi to the train station. There, Parker leaves on the train to go to college, while Hachi will waits for Parker's train to come back and walk with Parker home together. However, one day, Professor Parker suffers a fatal heart attack and dies. That night, Hachi waits for Parker, but he doesn't come back. In the following nine years, every day, Hachi waits for his owner in front of the train station faithfully until Hachi gets old. The film touches lots of people. The faithful Akita dog moves much audience to tears.

Recently, a Chinese version of faithful "Hachi" appears in Chongzhou City of Sichuan Province, China. The special passenger left in a parking lot of Guangyan Monastery of Chongzhou City is a golden puppy. Every day, the puppy lay along the parking lot quietly. The only thing to raise its spirit is the bus coming to stop in the parking lot.

"Our bus passes by the bus station five times a day. Every time we arrive here, the puppy will get on board and search for its master." A conductor said. The puppy seems like a security guard. Once the bus stops, it will get on board and sniff around. "At first I thought it was looking for food. But later I found out it was looking for its master." From 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., the puppy has shown up in the bus station for half a month and won't miss a single bus. Half a month ago, the puppy and its owner came to the Guangyan Monastery, but unfortunately, it was "left" here. Now, the puppy has become a friend to working staff of the bus station. They give it a new name "Huanghuang" and feed the puppy everyday.
