One of the landmarks of Edinburgh that makes up the history of this wonderful city, if you're doing the tour then you need to make a stop here and pay tribute to the wonderful devoted dog behind the story.\n\nAdmittedly, it's just a dog statue but I'll bet you would be hard pressed to name any other famous dogs from history that weren't simply Presidential pets or television stars. Laika, the Russian space dog is the only one that comes to mind. Maybe you can think of others?
