As I reviewed my 2019 photos, a few leaped out at me as so special. This was one of them.
Hachi was about 6 months old and the true extent of his fears was becoming clear. During the weeks before and after I took this image, he had a few aggressive outbursts that scared me. Yet, our timid Shyla never withdrew her friendship from him. She steadfastly played with him and watched out for him like a big sister.
I didn't realize at the time that we were seeing the beginning of a beautiful bond. These two are so good for each other, and that makes me smile.
When I saw this image in my library, I felt so grateful for Shyla and for her friendship with Hachi.

ReplyDeleteThree dogs is hard because there is always one odd dog out, but if two have a wonderful bond, that is so important. Great photo.
ReplyDeleteSuch an adorable image that speaks volumes about both Shyla and her little 'brother.'
