King Arthur's Dog

King Arthur is a legendary British leader and hero. According to medieval history, he led the defense of Britain against the Saxon invaders in the early 6th century. There is still a great debate as to whether Arthur existed or is just a myth. However, it appears a man name Arthur did live during that time period and that folklore helped keep his memory alive.

The facts that started the legend of King Arthur are:
1) Arthur was a man that lived and led in Britain.
2) Arthur never called himself a king.
3) Arthur loved his dog.

Legends of King Arthur speak of Cavall, a mighty hunter and boon companion. Cavall was Arthur's "favourite dog". One of the only facts that can be documented about Arthur is how he wept upon his dog's death.
