Then in 1925, Ueno suddenly passed away.
But Hachiko kept coming back.
Day after day.
Rain, snow or sunshine.
Waiting at the same station for the person he loved to return.

This is the final photograph taken of Hachiko, a Japanese Akita dog renowned for his unwavering loyalty to his owner. Hachiko belonged to Professor Eizaburo Ueno, who resided in Shibuya and taught at Tokyo Imperial University in the early 1920s. Each day, Ueno would walk to Shibuya station accompanied by Hachiko, and they would commute together to his workplace by train. At precisely 3 pm, Ueno would return to the station to head back home, and Hachiko would always be there, patiently waiting to join the professor on their journey.
However, one day, tragedy struck when Ueno suffered a stroke and never made it to the station. Undeterred by his master's absence, Hachiko faithfully went to the station every day for nine years until his passing in 1935. To honor his remarkable loyalty, a statue of Hachiko was erected outside Shibuya station in Tokyo.

Hachiko famously waited for his owner at Shibuya Station for nearly a decade following his owner's passing, earning the reputation as the epitome of loyalty.
