Today I went to the only dog town left in the US, Houndtown, and met with Darnell Hackworth. Darnell was a normal man when the panic first happened, he stayed with his wife kept to himself and tried to live his life. Why, why would you do that, the world is going to hell and you pretend it isn't happening, why I would grab some guns and have some fun, but he eventually got over this. He explained to me that dogs were used everywhere during the initial panic time, they could smell the infected and point them out. Darnell ran a place like this, a place called Houndtown, where the military and others received trained infected detecting dogs from, a good business I guess. He explained that the dogs where trained as escorts for people, he also said that the handlers of the dogs were the most likely people to commit suicide because if they lost their dog they felt guilty and killed themselves, I don't think I'd kill myself, but I beat myself up a lot for losing my dog, a good friend. Darnell ended our interview by telling me that before all this he hated dogs, I was reasonably surprised because that was his job now, raise and train dogs, but he hated them he was that neighbor that called animal control if your dog was barking in the night, we all know someone like that. Well now that the panic and most of the war is over, Darnell lives with his wife in the town, pretty much completely zombie free, and he takes care of four-legged veterans of the zombie war. He has completely turned over a new leaf, going from a cold dog hating man, to a man that lives with dogs, and takes care of them because he wants to. So this interview went pretty well, I learned what I wanted to. Well until next time.
