the harmonious notes of life

So, all the complaining I do about Kirkwood isn't without it's rewards. This is the dog I'm spending my freetime with when I'm up there. She's the dog I've been assigned to train, take care of and, in a word, fall in love with. And, I've already fallen in love with her. She's *sweet*, adorable and *fun*. And, apparently, she's already bonded to me. It's going to be really sad when I have to find her a family of her own and get her a home. It'll be heartbreaking to say goodbye to those big, brown eyes.

( Notice, in the picture, she doesn't have her leash on. She already stays close to me, even without a leash. Sigh. This really is going to be heart wrenching. )

Even Anne, the instructor, is trying to come up with excuses why I should adopt her and how I could make it work. Well, it'll work out in the end. It always does.
