They were last seen on the trail near the merry-go-round located at the park. Family members put up signs, posted online bulletins and organized searches.

On the evening of March 31, Hernandez’s body was found in a remote area of Griffith Park. His dog was with him, emaciated but loyally standing guard, according to what the man’s cousin told KNBC.

One firefighter said it took a good hike to reach the area where the body was found. The body had to be moved by search-and-rescue helicopter to a nearby field to be analyzed, according to KABC-TV.

Family members, park rangers, the LAPD and the Los Angeles Fire Department were all present that evening.

So far, no cause of Death has been shared, though the investigation is ongoing.

Though the discovery was a sad one, and the outcome is not what the family would have hoped for, they now know just how loyal King is. Many have found in this sad story a beautiful display of just how loyal a good dog can be.
