N.K.A.A. [ Nihon Ken Addicts Anonymous ] II

edited March 2010 in General
Calling to order the 2nd meeting of the NKAA.

Hi, I'm Osy, & I'm a Nihon Ken Addict :)

& I currently have...0 nihon ken!!! [ boo!!! ]

But, I was thinking the other day & realized I've now met 4 / 6 of the nihon ken!

Akita [ JA & AA ], Shiba, Shikoku, & Kai! All that's left are Kishu & Hokka!

Now, someone send me a puppy to love on :) LOL ~

    LMAO! Judging by the videos you posted, I figured he would be! haha

    He just has a "naughty" look to him ;) ~

    Osy now you just need to make a trip out to socal and help me chase after my Kishu's on a hunting trip and help me burn through a crate of .223 and .308 through my M4 and M1A's!

    Gen...that would be a dream come true!!! LOL

    Well, we already did the 30 hour drive to NM, maybe next year we'll tack on an extra 6 hours & go to So. Cal! haha ~

    No puppies here, but I can send you some adults for awhile. They are driving me crazy right now. It feels like I am living in a frat house.

    Stacey - That works too!


    Everyone send their dogs to Osy! LOL :) ~

    I haven't had a good nights sleep in god knows how long. Every morning I wake up hoping Osy has come in the night and stolen my pups, but every morning they're still there.

    Seriously though, I'm getting major bags under my eyes. Haru just got through the harsher part of puppyhood and I picked up Baron. He's just getting through the puppy stage and the Kai boys are here. Tomorrow I'm off picking up two Kai girls, so for a few days at least I'm going to lose my mind. Doesn't help that the wife is taking off to Australia for 2 weeks. I seem to remember her doing that a few weeks after I picked up Haru.

    Whatever, it's all worth it.

    Yes, I'm a NK addict too. I only have my two shibas, but really really want a JA.

    In the meantime, I've been reading this forum obsessively since I found it....got to get my NK fix somehow! The Shibas just keep me sane....or is it insane?

    TheWalrus, you've got a houseful! No wonder you're not getting any sleep!

    Shigeru --- 甲斐犬。。。ちかいうちに!はすぐになくなってしまいます! LOL がんばってね! [ 私の日本語はへたです。。。および。。。を練習する必要があります!  :p ]

    One day...I will sneak off in the middle of the night & take everyone's pups. Then they can come live with me in Dog World :D ~

    Just look at my signature, I think it speaks for itself.
  • edited November -1
    & it only gets longer as time goes on! :p ~

    Brad I think that Shigeru is aiming to have a longer signature than you!

    Good god no!

    lol... Osy, I will send Nola to visit you for a few days while she is blowing her coat... I would not want you to have to forgo the joys of coat blowing season with a NK. :)
  • edited November -1
    grr you guys suck :( Now I want another one! Just kidding >.<
  • edited November -1
    Brad has 10 NK, and you have 5 in your house with 2 more coming. Hmmm. Yep you're an NKAA! :-)

    LMAO!

    Casey - We got to experience Maui blowing. It actually wasn't as bad as I thought it was. [ at least...it was on the same level as dad's cat haha ] ~
  • edited November -1
    Osy brace yourself, Miko sheds 1000x worse than Moto ever did. And Brad was just telling me Akita are worse than Shikas.
  • edited November -1
    We're on the tail end of shedding season and I'd say Tojo definitely sheds the worst out of the three. Of course, Rakka's shedding is more dramatic, it's just short-lived. Tojo's seems to go on and on and on, whereas Rakka will coat the entire house with a thick padding of fur all at once and then it's over.

    I'm sure it varies.
  • edited November -1
    LMAO.

    It's funny, tho, as like I said, Dad's cat is HORRIBLE when it comes to shedding. She sheds ALL the time, PLUS she's a White cat & hubby & I...90% of our clothes are black.

    We actually keep those "sticky" rollers in our cars to get the fur off all the time. I was over there today & Halo literally coated me & turned my black pants white. LOL

    So...I'm used to it. Fur in the food, drinks, couches, fur fur everywhere! No matter HOW much you vacuum, it sticks! & ever since going on Orijen / Evo she's had MORE thick luscious fur. [ which then sheds and comes onto us! ]

    I'm kind of looking forward to only having to deal with future pups blowing a few months out of the year & getting it done vs all year LOL ~

    LOL, my herding instructor keeps *warning* me about having too many dogs at one time! I wanted to keep TWO puppies out of my Malinois litter and he's like, "Isn't ONE Malinois ENOUGH?" And then I have all these Shikoku puppy imports coming my way ...I was *GOOD*...I found homes for 2 of them! LOL, but I've decided to go ahead and keep 1 =p. Would be interesting to try and raise all 3 at the same time, yikes! Can you imagine...3 little InuYasha's or Ahi's running around -grins-.


    Thankfully, I suppose...I DO have a doggie limit...can't own anymore more then I can fit in my truck at one time!


    Dog people are CRAZY! Look at us! It's surprisingly difficult to not want to sneak in a Kai puppy along with my Shikoku imports...but then I'd end up with a ridiculous amount of puppies at a single time =(0-0)=.


    Hey, now I know where to send my dogs when they drive me insane! Osy, you want to take Kotomi and Lynxiene for a couple of weeks? They've both been extremely whiney and vocal recently =/. I'll ship them out to you tomorrow! =p Don't worry...Lynxiene is a just a Nihon Ken on acid!


    ----------------

    Wow, Shigeru! Perhaps you can have the cats "puppy-sit" while you go to Australia with your wife!

    -----------------

    Araks, don't you live decently close to me??? You can puppy-sit Kotomi for me =].

    ----------------

    Brad, you can't even fit all your dogs in your signature! lol...or did JJ go back to her owner/breeder?

    Corina,

    You can do what my friend did - get a full size van and customize it. :-) It'll expand your limit. My friend can fit 4 crates that are accessible from the sliding side door and 2 more that are accessible from the back door. If she packs it a certain way, she can also get several x-pens, chairs, an ez-up, a cooler, and a cart. She also has eye-bolts screwed underneath the van as handly tether points.

    HAHAH!


    Don't encourage me! I might just have to invest into a trailer. I can already fit 6-8 dogs into my truck and realisticly speaking...training wise...I can't have anymore then 8 dogs. And 8 dogs is kinda "pushing it" but I can manage...


    ...I *was* gonna stop at 4 dogs, but I can live and train comfortably with 6 dogs.


    I definitely feel that this NKAA meeting serves to SUPPORT this addiction, LOL. I KNEW it!
  • edited November -1
    LMAO!

    Corina, & the rest of the forum, feel free to send dogs to me to watch for a few weeks at any time. [ it's cheaper than boarding! ] ~
  • edited November -1
    ooh!! Corina-when do you have puppies coming in and who are the lucky persons??
  • edited November -1
    Osy - I might just take you up on that someday =].


    Jessika - lol, the puppies should arrive *hopefully* this Fall but could be as late as early next year it depends on when the litters are born and what puppies are in them. Who are the lucky persons? Nice try! You will find out in good time...that's for them to reveal not me =]. I love surprises, don't you? -grins-

    lol- that is great though you will be bringing in more pups from Japan, new blood. :D
