How a dog dealt with grief

This article was in Thursday's Washington Post. It's a wonderful story, but I warn you now, have tissues handy. It's about how one dog came to terms with the death of his master.
A Visit to His Master's Grave Seems to Give Closure to a Grieving Dog

I'm not even gonna open that link. I started choking up just reading your description.

I managed not to get teary, which is a first for me! I just kept my eyes open really wide as I read it. Nice story.

outside of hartford hospital, there's a statue of a black dog. the story behind it is that the dog was very close to his owner and after his owner got sick and had to go to the hospital for treatments, he would wait outside the hospital for his owner. during one of the owner's treatments, he needed to be admitted to the hospital and he died there. no one could get the dog to leave the front door of the hospital. people would bring food out for him and blankets in the winter, but the dog never left because he thought his owner was still inside. he stayed on the grounds of the hospital until he died. i don't know if the story is 100% true or not, but it really illustrates the bond between animals and humans.

Beautiful story, thank you.

I've seen the trailer for that film -- Richard Gere and Jason Alexander are in it but I don't remember the name of the film. I will say that the trailer chokes me up every time...
