This furry, friendly face is our family's dog, Jafet (or in English; Japeth). Make no mistake, this is no poodle, but a first class cross-breed between a small schnauzer and a bichon frisée. (Result of a happy mishap between my aunt's dog Noah and their neighbor's dog...) He is exuberantly pleased whenever I come home, to the extent that he jumps, leaps, licks, barks, runs laps in the living room, runs laps around himself, around me, and around anyone else happening to be present. If everyone could get such a greeting at least once a day, I think the world would be a better place.
