Greyfriars Bobby's grave is located near Greyfriars Kirkyard in Edinburgh, Scotland. It is the final resting place of a loyal and beloved Skye Terrier named Bobby. Bobby's story is quite remarkable - he was the faithful companion of a policeman named John Gray and after Gray's death, Bobby stayed by his master's grave for many years. The locals took care of him and even built him a shelter. Bobby's loyalty touched the hearts of many, and he became a symbol of devotion. Today, visitors come from all over to pay their respects to this extraordinary dog.
