• WEEKS BECOMES TIME; TIME AFTER TIME…

    Hasn’t even been a week; but it feels like months.  I really felt that I wouldn’t be in the hunt for another dog, for a long time; but the day after she passed, I called the Rosalind at the Jindo Rescue.  I’ve never had that type of lonliness, even when Brando died, because at that time, I had Lola, and that helped the situation.  This time, I didn’t have anything like that.  I knew that I wanted another Jindo, they are a hard breed to get used to, but after you do, it’s like an addiction to a breed.
