If only for a season

Meet Sobi.

The best dog in all of Korea! 

We met Sobi about a month after arriving in Korea. It sounds really strange, mostly because it is strange, but right by our apartment there's a dog tank; people keep their dogs there sometimes. It's a small building with glass all around. She was always so friendly and excited to see us (unlike the other dogs, shocking, I know) so we started letting her out of the dog tank when we found her in there. One day we brought her up to give her a bath. She started visiting, and then occasionally spending the night. Well about 8 weeks ago she became a frequent visitor and we saw that she was pregnant, and 6 weeks ago she birthed a puppy in our bathroom! One single puppy. We decided to name her Rea.

Meet Rea. 

2 days old 


3 weeks old 


 5 weeks

It turns out, Sobi has Korean owners. And after a series of events, they came and took them away yesterday. We've seen Sobi twice since then because she has come to visit. We're sure this will remain the same. We're hoping to see Rea outside in a month or so when she's old enough; tomorrow she'll be 6 weeks old.  

Beka and I kind of feel like empty nesters! We were glad to have them, if only for a season.
