Dog Festa

With Ohanami 2 weeks behind us it's time for another event. It has been a year since we made our exploratory visit to Japan to decide whether or not to live here.

I definitely plan to go with my camera and hope to add to my photo collection of well-dressed dogs.

The local dog store had quite a display out in preparation for this Saturday. This is a two floor store dedicated to animal fashion and seems to be doing a booming business.

Ja Mata,
