When I was doing research about whether or not animals cry (sorry, I still don't know) I came across Greyfriars Bobby. John Gray was a policeman in Scotland who died in 1858. Legend has it that his loyal terrier Bobby sat on his grave for 14 years until the dog died. More recent historians have said that Bobby did leave the grave to eat at local restaurants. Really? Ya think?
That's what I call loyalty Bobby definitely deserves the monument that was built in his honor. Hopefully it has some awesome home theater lighting illuminating it to guard him. Either way, I still think that Greyfriars Bobby was a very good dog, even if he did take out time to eat.

What a wonderful animal. Most humans (in my experience) don't deserve that kind of loyalty. But for you? I would come sit on your grave. I'll tell you right now, though. I will leave at the first sniff of good food.
