This is true love!

Dogs are known for their loyalty but a pooch in China has taken his devotion to his owner to a whole new level.

Xiongxiong, which means Bear in Chinese, waits at a train station for 12 hours every day for his owner to return from work.

A video shows the cuddly pet sitting at Liziba metro station in Chongqing's Yuzhong district.

The Daily Mail reports that he's a well-known face in the area and something of a celebrity, with people coming from far and wide to visit him. But Xiongxiong quietly waits for his owner and refuses food from strangers.

Commuters say he doesn't mind being petted but he only has eyes for one man:

"Xiongxiong will appear at the train station at about 7am or 8am every day, when his owner leaves for work. Then he will linger at the station - specifically at Exit B - for about 12 hours, sometimes until 8pm. He just waits. The moment he sees his owner, he gets so happy and excited."

His owner - known only as Mr Chen - said:

"I've had Xiongxiong for about seven or eight years. Ever since I have had him, he has waited for me every day. He is always happy when he sees me, which makes me very happy too. Xiongxiong always manages to make me less tired from work."

So sweet!
