March 1997 - February 2008
Miko was the loved companion of our family friend Dolly. I spent a lot of time with Miko (and Dolly!) in 2002. Miko did not like the idea that my Mom was moving away and jumped into the suitcase to make sure that SHE went too.
Miko was ill with congestive heart failure for only 3 weeks. She crawled under Dolly's kitchen table Thursday night and died. 2008 has been a very bad year for losing dogs near and dear to us - see the next 2 photos in my "Dogs" set. :(
I will miss her sweet little soul.
April 1st was the Tayuu Douchu, in which two Tayuu (Kiseragi Tayuu and Furisode Tayuu) held a small parade down Takasegawa and then held a small ceremony.
During the ceremony, Miko-sama, or shinto shrine maidens, performed a dance.
