Greyfriars Bobby Fountain
United Kingdom
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. The fountain is located at the southern end of George IV Bridge, to the immediate east of Greyfriars Kirkyard and adjacent to the National Museum of Scotland. It was unveiled on 15 November 1873 and is Edinburgh's smallest listed building.
