Credible BS

Personal knowledge or speculation?

Personal knowledge or speculation?

1 - My limited knowledge of dogs from personal experience.
2 - Common sense.
3 - Simple research on the internet.

There are many versions of the story you posted about. At best, it was a stray dog that lived in the cemetery (with other stray dogs) that gravitated towards that gravesite for whatever reason to sleep.

Generally, people love a good story, and generally it's just that, a story.

Hachiko (sp?) I guess could be a somewhat credible story because the dog was already trained to wait for his master by the train tracks. Per your story, the dog had never been to the cemetery EVER, even after the dogs owner died.

OK, speculation

Some unexciting dog pics taken today. I took them, so I know they are real.

What has he been doing!!!??!!??

OK, speculation

Exactly how do you prove something didn't happen when it becomes a "feel good" story?

What is pretty much fact is that the dog in your story did not go home every day only to return to the cemetery. There are other inconsistencies in the story depending on the source of what is said per fact.

It does seem cruel to drag that dog behind an ATV.
