Puppy friend

We met this adorable puppy on the street after our canoe ride. Unlike almost every dog in Majuro, she wanted to be friends. She licked us, jumped up and snagged her sharp little puppy teeth on my hand while trying to play, and followed us. She followed us pretty far, actually. We finally lost her when we walked through a hotel, one of the two "resorts" on the island. (I really only put it in quotes because I did see a tree roach--a huge, flying cockroach--inside the building. To be fair, these disgusting bugs are also quite prevalent in Houston. But I suspect that a Houston resort manager would probably do his best to ensure that no guest ever saw one.)





It's lucky that we lost her before we got to the car (which we borrowed from the sisters), because it would have been very tempting to take her home with us.
