Chinese dog refuses to leave dead owner's graveside

[The Dragon Master]

A dog in China who was the only companion to a single resident has refused to leave him even after his death.

Lao Pan, 68, died earlier this month in the village of Panjiatun.

His dog was found later at his grave, refusing to leave even after seven days without food.

The BBC's Xiaoyun Yao reports.

Animals are truly amazing and compassionate.

I don't know whether the Chinese story is real, or a cheap Oriental copy of the story of Greyfriars Bobby.

And it doesn't matter in the least.



The story of the dog attending his master's grave has been made into several movies since then.
