About this work

The Greyfriars Bobby Fountain is a granite fountain in Edinburgh, surmounted by a bronze life-size statue of Greyfriars Bobby, a Skye Terrier or Dandie Dinmont Terrier who became known in 19th-century Edinburgh for supposedly spending 14 years guarding the grave of his owner John Gray, until the dog himself died on 14 January 1872.
