Yesterday I was going for my dogs walk, and guess what I saw!
A baby raccoon dog!
I was walking around the park to see the cherry blossoms near my house. Then I noticed how my dog was sniffing the ground excitedly. I looked around and saw a small long-haired animal just a few meters away from me. First I thought it was a kitten or a dog left loose, but then I realized the way it walked was neither a cat nor dog. I knew my dog would be too excited and would chase it if he notice, so I could not get closer. I looked carefully and was sure that it was a raccoon dog.
It was surprising that I would actually find a raccoon dog in Tokyo! I really hope to see them again around my house.
