I can't find a nice picture of Ti without his muzzle and have run out of opportunities so will just have to bask in the beauty of everyone elses beautiful pups thanks for the OK to do it though, it's nice to know that people don't consider him an outsider and that even if they do they don't mind him joining in
Just an update - for the Nihonken Calendar, we'll be doing : 2 months for Akitas, 2 months for Shikoku, 2 months for Shibas, 2 months for Kai, 1 month for Hokkaido, 1 month for Kishu, 2 months for honorary Nihonken.
We currently have 11 akita photos, 7 shikoku photos, 56 shiba photos, 1 kai photo, No hokkaido photos, and 3 kishu photos, and 7 misc photos (these include honorary Nihonken and group shots with multiple breeds).
I'm working on getting the survey done on the shiba calendar first. We'll take the pics selected there and use them as the choices for the shibas on the NihonKen Forum calendar.
I'd like to get more pics from our Akita, Shikoku, Kai, Hokkaido, and Kishu owners.
I would not purchase an appointment book, as I am part of the blackberry/iphone world.... The calendar is so my husband knows where I am. I vote calendar.
Oh, I have a great picture of Maya kissing Aki, but they're not my dogs (they're Peggy's) so I don't think it's right to submit it, oh well...Brads Aki pic reminded me of it.
But here are some pics of Brads pups that I took in WI (hope you don't mind Brad), as well as one of Josephine. These are all small res pics, and I can give you the full size if needed.
Last year, I numbered the photos and set up a survey on Survey Monkey. We took those that had the highest number of votes and those went into the calendar.
This time, we'll set up the shiba survey first to narrow down the pics to be used for the shiba calendar. Once we have that done, I'll set up a second survey for the NihonKen calendar with the all of the akita, shikoku, kai, kishu, hokkaido, honorary nihon ken, and the small selection of shiba photos.
Ooohh look at Haru! And Josephine's red brindle shows up in that pic. And the Hokkaido, and Tikaani! I luv this thread. he he. Let me know if you need me to resize/crop anything for you. I have CS4.
Ha Ha --- didn't realize the last two pics of Josephine are almost the same. Again, know that I am violating the number of nominations, but here is more Josephine...
It would be rad if we could do an inu-a-day calendar. lol ^_^ I love all of these pictures so much.
And here are my not-quite-nihonken entries (higher rez files available). I'm quite new to the forum so I wouldn't mind waiting until next year (when I have more recent pictures!) to officially submit photos so that Ki isn't considered for spots better suited to dogs/members who have been a part of the community over the last year.

Here's two of Tikaani that I find particularly nice:

Thanks for the consideration of Josephine for the calendar...
edit: oh wait Josephine is older. he he Koda looks like her.
