After his owner died suddenly in 2006, German Shepherd Capitan has loyally sat by his owner's grave for the past 6 years and has rarely left the graveside of the man who originally got the GSD as a gift for his son in 2005.
After Miguel Guzman's funeral, the family returned home to find that their family pet was gone. "We searched for him but he had vanished," Guzman's widow explained to a local newspaper. "We thought he must have got run over and died." When the family went to visit the gravesite, they found Capitan right there, lying near his former owner.
The family says that they had never taken the dog to the cemetery...
