I found #greyfriarsbobby ! Didn't he used to be on a stone plinth next to the path? (Around the late 80s?) Or am I just remembering it wrong? Maybe he was always in the flower bed! Anyway, here's to the loyalty of dogs 😍🐶🐕 #dogsofmastodon #edinburgh

Great to be able to visit #edinburgh after my #veterinaryeducation conference at the University. Haven't been here since I was a child and the only thing I remember from that is #greyfriarsbobby 🐶 #veted2023

Happy Birthday to Greyfriars Bobby, the little dog who captured hearts in 19th century Edinburgh. After his owner's death, Bobby spent 14 years guarding his grave in all weather conditions. Looked after by the curator and fed by locals, he became a symbol of loyalty and devotion. This statue outside Greyfriars Kirkyard honors his memory.
