"The Story of the Loyal Dog Hachiko": A tribute to all the tenderness in the world

I don’t know if it’s because of the constellation or the family environment since I was a child. I have never kept small pets, and I rarely get close to small animals.

Due to very little closeness and understanding, I also have a natural alienation from small animals. I have never had the idea of ​​raising a kitten or puppy. It is more cost-effective to raise a child, and it embodies the rationality of my big Capricorn until death.

Although I don't want to raise a puppy right now, after the film about the loyal dog Hachiko made me cry. When I saw that Hachiko and the male protagonist had a deeper relationship and more tacit understanding, I felt that it would be good to have such a dog friend. He was cute when he was a child, and handsome when he grew up. When he went out, he was like a bodyguard, safe and face-to-face. This idea changed with the sudden death of the male protagonist. Hachiko, who was persistently waiting, looked at his helpless and pitiful appearance, guarding him day and night in the wind and rain. After the intense grief, his tears seemed to be out of control. The ground overflowed. I often cry when watching a movie, but this is the first time for an animal.

I think I should quickly get rid of the idea of ​​raising a dog. After a long time, when one day faces the separation of life and death, doesn't that mean one more heartbreak? For animal companions who have been with them for many years, many owners have to have the courage to take on that moment. There are also people who have lost it once and never dare to raise it again. Even if I don't have this experience, I feel really understandable.

The sudden death of the male protagonist is embarrassing. What a good host this is for Hachiko. Perhaps consolingly, he at least avoided the pain of parting.

This loyal dog, this story, is also fortunate to have an environment that loves and nourishes them. The air of the town is always full of friendliness and enthusiasm between people. Guiltily, I thought, if it were to change to my dynasty, would there be such a beautiful miracle? On

a cold night with snow, Hachiko, who was old and debilitated, hid under the train to rest, and heard the whistle of the train arriving at the station. Not as sharp as before, he still got up slowly, and staggered to the old seat in front of the station, swaying, alone, strong, lying on his stomach, his eyes were heartbroken...

I heard about the loyal dog Hachiko for a long time, and I just watched this movie today. I really feel that the loyal dog is more than the loyalty of the animal nature that I thought before. This Akita dog, Hachiko, who has been at the station for five years, waiting for the owner's return day after day, has a loyalty far beyond ordinary meaning. The relationship between people and animals is not only the subordination of master and servant, but also the mutual dependence of family members.

Pay tribute to this magical loyal dog, to those who love and treat it, who wrote this story, made this movie, and all the warmth in the world.
