Shiba family reunion on the beach
This pass weekend, Lindsay, Pam and myself took our six Shibas to Long Beach, WA on vacation for a few days. Each of us brought two Shibas and we had a lot of fun. All dogs enjoyed their time together, the beach, the hike and we also did some training too - socialization, crate gates, body awareness games and recall.
All 6 Shibas are from the same breeder and they are related, so this is really a family reunion for the dogs.
Lindsay has Ike (4 years old male) and Farrah (1 year old female) . Pam has Eli (2 years old male) and Pip (4 months old female) and I have Maluko (6 year old female) and Koji (1 1/2 year old male). Farrah and Pip are half sisters and they are both Koji's aunts. Ike and Eli are 3/4 brothers and Maluko's grandsire links her to all the other dogs.

I am kind of sad every time I see such wonderful Shibas getting along though, since I don't have that. Shibas interacting together is a really beautiful thing--the way they play, the way they walk together, etc. I miss that.
But I loved the video! And it was so well done too, with the "starring" photos in the beginning.....
Looks like a wonderful time.
I really wish I could have flown out and joined in! Hope you guys can do that again soon!
I consider it the very very bottom of the PNW, at least my little part, since the weather and most of the landscape is pretty much exactly the same as Portland/Vancouver. It's just a bit wetter up there.
@curlytails You could always park at my place and hitch a ride with me if the meetup were in Washington. That would save you something like 6+ hours of driving and gas.
@sandrat888, now look what you started.
@shibamistress, would you be interested in coming? I know it is kind of far for you.
If Conker can get along for longer than "dog park" time, and he normally does after an initial snarkfest, I could stay at your place, but only if you didn't mind. (I could cook dinner...) If not I wouldn't mind a hotel. The last time I stayed in one with Conker he barked at everything though. If anything I could pop back down to Vancouver WA and stay at my Grandma's place. I used to live there so she's plenty used to me.
