Hime’s favorite thing to do is simple: she likes to sit by a nature path and wait for nose boops. The 13-year-old Siberian husky has known for a long time that she will get what she wants in the end.
“She likes that spot so she can watch the world go by,” David Nagadhana, Hime’s dad, told The Dodo. “But she has other strategies.”
Hime was adopted as a puppy. To get to the best places to pet dogs, she rides in Nagadhana’s bike trailer.
“I cycle her because of her arthritis,” Nagadhana said. “Gentle in her old age, [Hime] looks for affection anywhere she can find it.”
The husky’s favorite place is by the Thames in Richmond, England, but Nagadhana takes her wherever she seems to be happiest.
“She loves finding new and interesting and exciting locations so that she may proceed to nap in them,” Nagadhana said. “She finds it relaxing enough to nod off on occasion.”
Nagadhana and Hime do everything together, and they won’t stop any time soon.
“She was there for me when life ground to a halt during the pandemic,” Nagadhana said. “I’ll be there for her until the end. Raising dogs is like a rainbow. Puppies are the joy at one end, old dogs are the treasure at the other.”
It goes without saying that Hime gets lots of boops from her favorite person: Dad.
