Hello Leo Hello Jade
Hi Leo and Jade,
My name is Charlie. I live in a small town in New Jersey, USA, about 20 miles west of New York city. I was adopted about 2 months ago. I used to live in Massachusetts and then in the Bronx, a part of New York City. My new daddy told me about you, but only seemed to know that you were both Keeshonds living in Japan. He reads your mom’s blog (http://keeleojay.blog64.fc2.com/ ) about you every day to me, but does not understand Japanese. He has tried the automatic translators, but says they are of little help. My daddy was also Scruffy’s daddy. Ruby (my new Beagle sister) tells me that if you are Keeshonds, you probably heard of Scruffy. I am not so sure. I do know that we are all cousins since we are Keeshonds. Ruby says she also wants to be our cousin. Maybe we can let her be an honorary cousin, if that’s OK with you guys. She does make a strange looking Keeshond – but nobody’s perfect.
Please tell me about yourselves. Were you born in Japan? Are there many Keeshonds in Japan? Do you live in Tokyo? Do you live right in the city or a suburb? What season is it there now? I ask a lot of questions – maybe that’s enough for now.
We are just at the end of winter, it is getting warmer and the snow is gone. We had snow on the ground all winter long and it was very cold. I like the cold. Snow is fun too.
I know you guys understand Japanese and probably not much English, so you will have to ask your mom to translate for you.
Your cousin,
Charlie
