I went to see a dog at the local shelter today. I kept going back to her when I was searching online for dogs and thought I might as well visit her since she's pretty much right down the street. She's labeled as an 11-month-old pit mix but when I talked to a worker she said she seems to have more Jindo in her (which, by the way, is another awesome Japanese breed like a Shiba only bigger). So, I sat on the outside of the cell and cooed and scratched her neck for a good 15-20 minutes. She put her head on the door and let me pet her until her eyes closed and she started to fall asleep. I'm taking an early lunch tomorrow to go back with my Mom for a second opinion and to take her out of the cage and see how she does. I'm fearful she's dog aggressive or eats cats or small children. First impression tells me she's too sweet for that though.
P.S. They call her Stars, which might be a sign considering I used to love stars so much my nickname was Jesika Starr.
