A paranoid Akita dog

Watching the story of Hachiko: A Dog's Story, I cried and cried in the second half. While crying, I thought rationally, what a paranoid dog.
The film is based on the true story of an Akita dog in Japan. There was a movie in Japan before. Hachiko went to the station every morning and evening to pick up his master, but one day his master suffered a heart attack and never came back. Hachiko can't accept this reality, or doesn't understand what happened (Hachiko had a hunch about the death of the master in the movie, and he wanted to keep him that morning), and still went to the station every evening when the master returned home and waited.
This wait is ten years. The old location at the exit of the train station.
The leaves turned green and yellow, and the wind blew snow. The leaves turned green and yellow, and the wind blew snow. The leaves turned green and yellow, and the wind blew snow. . . . . . (7 sentences omitted here), Hachiko's expectant eyes have not changed. Ten years of life and death.
Is it a habit? Turn around that street corner every day, eat a little snack from the owner of the butcher shop, pass by the fat woman's bookstore, stop at the roadside stall in front of the station, say goodbye or reunite with the owner. Habits of behavior will create a sense of security.
A dog moved the world, can't humans do it? If there is one person like this, we will call him a lunatic. Compared with animals, humans have a stronger sense of self-protection and flexibility. This isn't necessarily a bad thing.
A paranoid Akita, it will not affect you to be moved by his loyalty and persistence.

Hachi: A Dog's Tale quotes

  • Ken: I understand how you feel. Hachi, my friend, Parker is never coming home. But if Hachiko wants to wait, then Hachiko should wait. Have a long life Hachi.

  • Ronnie - 11 years: I never met my grandfather, he died when I was just a little baby. But when I hear about him and Hachi, I feel like I know him. They taught me the meaning of loyalty. That you should never forget anyone that you loved. And that's why Hachi will forever be my hero.
