An extremely dedicated dog has continued to show its loyalty, keeping watch on its owner's grave six years after he passed away.

Capitan, a German shepherd, reportedly ran away from home after its owner, Miguel Guzman, died in 2006. A week later, the Guzman family found the dog sitting by his grave in central Argentina.

Man's best friend indeed.

Wow. That's a cool story.

I'm pretty sure my Brittany would do that. When home, he is by my side constantly. If I have to be out of town, he pouts according to my wife.

This reminds me of a movie I saw a few weeks ago called Hachi: A Dog's Tale.

It's a very similar story based on true events. You wouldn't think it to be a great movie just based on the description, but it is definitely a must see in my opinion, especially if you're a dog lover.

Saw that movie, good flick but no way could I watch it again, talk about a tear jerker.
