STOMPer Bill has  noticed this dog returning to the same spot in Jurong East Avenue 1 at  the same time every night, reminding residents of the loyal dog Hachiko.  He wonders where the dog's owner has been.
Hachiko  was a dog born in Japan, remembered for his outstanding loyalty to his  owner. Even after his owner's death, Hachiko continued to wait at the  train station for his owner every day without fail, who never returned.
Said the STOMPer:
"A dog that looks like a labrador was heard crying for help on early Thursday morning.
"He stood along the roadside just outside Block 345 Jurong East Avenue 1 and looked around helplessly.
"Where is his owner?
"Is he a stray dog?
"Nobody knows!
"Since  then, he has been wandering around the area, coming back to the same  spot at almost the same time every night, at around 9-10pm and 4am.
"He does nothing but lie there quietly to wait for his selfish owner.
"His hachiko-like behaviour has touched a lot of people in the neighbourhood.
"We feed and give him fresh water.
"He is getting thinner and dirtier every day.
"It is torturing!
"Just hope someone can help before he is put to sleep!!!"
