Noche's First Day At the park!

edited November 2008 in Shiba Inu (柴犬)
What a day that was....I almost felt like charging people for petting him, hehe. So many people ask questions about the breed, I think I am going to make some handouts so I dont have to repeat myself every 5 mins when Im in the park. Socializing went well, Noche dosent seem to mind other dogs..but after a while he stayed near us..like to say.."ok I thought I was a pain..but these other dogs need a leash papa!"

    The very first photo is a great comparison with the Shiba colors. They all look so happy!

    ^,,^"

    Luna is 4 years old now...I cant remember when she started getting more pink in her nose...I will look for some old pics and see if I can narrow it down (I have seen some adult Cream shibas with black noses as well).

    Thanks for the shirt Idea..I think im going to make one :)
