Looking back at 2014 made me realize I took you on a bumpy ride when you have read our blog throughout the year.
There were a lot of highs and lows, and you probably both shed a tear and laughed with me along the way.
It was certainly colored by Tilde, and how the start of her story as the The Last Rescue From The Hovawart Puppy Mill ends, to give birth to hope and a new life through her adoption by us.

General Kenzo And Sergeant Tilde On Patrol
It might be just my imagination, but...
It might also make sense my friends nicknamed Kenzo, "The General".

Tilde Hits The Office, A Christmas Miracle
At least fifteen people were working in the office that day and all heads turned towards the door, to see who was coming inside.
Tilde stopped in her tracks, closed her mouth and took one step back.
Even for Miss Social herself, it was a lot of people, looking at her all at once in a new environment.

Observations From An Outsider
"Kenzo is an exemplary dog", my friend said.
"Really?", I mumbled in surprise, stunned to hear such a statement coming from him. He knew Kenzo since puppy-hood and never seemed to approve of the grown-up dog, Kenzo had become.
Actually, he always has been Kenzo's biggest critic. When Kenzo was young, my friend always had something to complain about. Kenzo didn't listen. Kenzo pulled the leash. Kenzo barked. Kenzo was never happy to see him. Kenzo .... and the list goes on - I agree on the never happy to see him point though, and fully support Kenzo in that excellent choice.

Keep On Smiling
It's very difficult to be sad with Tilde around.
We had a bad week over here. First, we learned that Kenzo's best friend Joska the Viszla had passed. Then our cat, Jule, also passed.
Loss had hit once more, and we were automatically drawn to travel to the West-coast. Away from human troubles and every day life. In a place that for us like no other embodies the end of the world, and where nature does its work of repairing the soul. Maybe we could pick up a sign from Joska and Jule they were ok, once we were there, too.
