Dog tracks down owner to funeral home after he died...Now, that is loyalty
 

First part of the story...

BRISTOL - It's hard to imagine a more loyal dog than Polo. Even when his best pal died, the 3-year-old shepherd/chow/Labrador mix paid his respects in his own way.

Polo was often seen in the company of Ed Crossan, whose daughter, Donna, owns the dog. Polo would scamper around the yard while Crossan mowed the grass or planted flowers.

Crossan was famous for the festive decorations in the front yard of his Pond Street property every Easter or Christmas and, when he set up, Polo was always nearby.

So when Crossan, 73, died unexpectedly after surgery last week, Polo only understood that his friend was missing and he had to be found.

On the day that Theresa Crossan was preparing to make funeral arrangements for her husband, someone let the dog out into the yard. When the family went to fetch him, Polo was nowhere to be found.

"He got out and we went to look for him but couldn't find him," said Donna Crossan, who lives with her two children in the family home. "We finally had to just go to make the arrangements."

They were in for a shock. They pulled up in front of the Wade Funeral Home on Radcliffe Street about five blocks away, and there was Polo, pacing back and forth, apparently looking for Ed.
