Miguel's Best Friend

I follow a page on Facebook called 'Wild for Wildlife and Nature' and the following post appeared on my Facebook feed:

"For the past 6 years, a German shepherd called Capitán has slept next to the grave of his owner every night at 6pm.
His owner, Miguel Guzmán died in 2006. Capitán, the dog, disappeared while the family attended the fueral services. A week later reatives of Guzmán were visiting the cemetery when they were astounded to find the dog next to the owner's grave.The cemetery director says that the dog comes around each night at 6pm, and has done so for the past 6 years!"

I found the above posting really sweet. Archaeologically the odds of seeing this are slim I think. Or rather archaeologist might not conclude that it was Miguel's best friend that didn't want to be separated. Perhaps some of my classmates who are working on the case study of 'Animals in Burials' can shed some light on this case study.
