I had the opportunity to make portraits for a dog training start-up yesterday. Kirsten has trained Jake to behave exceptionally well without a leash. She also taught him a variety of entertaining and endearing tricks.
Jake was a very popular sight at the public park in northwest Tokyo. He was the largest dog we encountered there the entire day. He received compliments such as kawaii (cute), kirei (beautiful/handsome), and steki (cool, in a stylish sense).
