Greyfriars Bobby was a Skye Terrier who became known in 19th-century, Scotland, after reportedly spending fourteen years guarding his owner's grave, until his own death on 14 January 1872. A year after the dog died, the philanthropist Baroness Burdett Coutts, had a statue and fountain erected to commemorate him. Photo credit: MykReeve
