Greyfriars Bobby

Greyfriars Bobby is an infamous tale of woe, that captured the hearts of the Scottish people and the tourists who visit their fair country. He was a terrier who found himself trapped in a saga of never-ending loyalty and extreme bladder control.

Born in the 19th century, Bobby lived with his owner in Edinburgh. His owner, a man named John Gray, worked as a night watchman for the Edinburgh City Police. Because John had to work long hours, Bobby became his loyal companion and went everywhere with him. But one day, John fell ill and died leaving Bobby behind to roam the streets with a broken heart and a full bladder.

For the next fourteen years, Bobby took it upon himself to remain fiercely loyal to his deceased master’s grave. He would sit day and night at this grave in Edinburgh’s Greyfriars cemetery, only leaving the site to fetch some scraps from the local butcher.

Bobby’s bladder control was legendary, and there are stories of him holding his pee in for days, purely because he didn’t want to leave his master’s side. It’s rumored that Bobby loved Edinburgh so much that he once marked the entire city as his territory; a feat that still remains unmatched to this day.

Eventually, Bobby became a celebrity in his own right, with locals and tourists alike flocking to see the dog who refused to move from his master’s side. He even had his own statue erected in his honor, which is still there today.

In conclusion, Greyfriars Bobby may have been just a dog, but he had more loyalty and bladder control than most of us humans ever will have. He will always be remembered as a true Scottish hero, and a dog who truly knew how to hold it.
