At the show site, July 2003

She loves being at dog shows though she is not an entrante.
Here she is with my friend's boy named Kokoro.
(Kokoro means heart or mind in Japanese. He's a sweet boy.)
One windy day in January 2004

I clipped her ears and put tassels like Bedlington Terrier.
Her ears got light and being blown like this. She's exactly 'Blowin' In The Wind' Hope not she's gonna fly! <g>
March 2004

We sometimes visit this field to play. Nanako is always so happy when she can hold a ball. She loves play catch, however, she gets too competitive when she's with Leanne and I need to stop her sometimes.
She looks as if she's saying 'I hope the spring comes soon.'
But here I think she'd like to say 'Taking photos? I wanna go home soon. I'm tired.'

She is sure getting old and no longer can play as she used to do. She is going to be 14 this November. I want her to spend her geriatric days easy and peaceful.
