Hes gorgeous!

We used to go to the dog park alot as well but we are slowly weaning off because of the incidents of people bringing in dogs in need of socializing during the heavy 'rush hour' and the dog ends up becoming a risk that Kuma decides to put down. We go…

So cute!

A dog is a dog, they are not my kids, or sibling, or relative, but they sure can feel like it at times. They are a companion that another human cannot imitate, for they are dogs. Their simple impression of the world and acute senses allow us access …

@souggy Thanks for the info! I'm still on the search for Akitas doing other jobs and if someone wants to delete the bear hunting videos since most people don't approve of them I will remove the links.

Welcome home Kiba!

For me I would say a Dutch ShepherdxAmerican Akita, and that would be for the temperate area where their is snow. Also a savannah is out of the question, I hate the heat even when it comes to living in Texas, give me deathly cold over heat and dryne…

I'll have to join once I can tolerate the people of dA again, but hopefully this will get the word out about all the nihon ken breeds!

Matsu might be by favorite Kai on the forum hands down, love that head of his definitely handsome.

I don't really agree with the chained bear method either especially since they declawed and defanged, but I didn't want to judge it being that this is another country and I am unfamiliar with bear hunting methods and training. But the bitework vid w…

@Calia thanks alot!

Following this Kishu in particular has been fun, shes so gorgeous. Been my main inspiration on wanting to get a Kishu, can't wait to see more!

I haven't commented on this thread for awhile, I am still considering adding a Shikoku to our pack however I'm waiting a little bit (another year or so) since were planning on moving to a house and some other things popped up. Thank you all for your…

@Losech She is and the shelter had a really hard time telling what she was as well. She's a bit of an odd looking dog but she hadn't been adopted for the 5 months she was there because of how intimidating she looked and her suspicions of men. I work…

@WrylyBrindle I have to agree, Brindle is better. And Brindle dogs seem to go well with artists since I am also a 3-D Animation Student/Concept Artist. But on considering a 3rd dog once we get a house I would love to get a colored-Kishu or black ses…

@shibamistress Thanks for the advice, were working on it slowly but the treats were using right now are these gingerbread treats, they smell great and they love them, I've tasted them and they are really good. Pyrrha isn't a lover of raw meat. But w…

While I don't own any Nihon ken I own a 67 pound puppy named Kumatora and we head to the dog park often. We always try to go late in the day, or during the times with the least amount of people, usually for 2-4 hours. Kumatora is very sticky after …
-
@NavyDog Ah yes the catch me if you can game, I don't necessarily mind it as long as its a tug she has in her mouth and I can grab it haha. @poinea I live in the Dallas area off of Belt Line, were thinking of checking out the Dallas Air Dogs facili…
-
@Spitzfever We are thinking if we can't do hunting soon we'll do agility or weight-pull, hiking is another but I rather wait until Texas isn't threatening to go to triple digits to do that. Haha Walking is boring for the both of us to. Were gonna k…

Gorgeous dog! Which breeder did you get her from?
-
@Shikoku thanks for the tip! We let her drag it inside the house for a moment and gave her some treats, and then went to basically our 'yard' next to the apartment. We live in a fairly secluded area of the complex. Gave her a couple more treats and …
-
Alright she is still hating on the leash about to post some photos but I think today were gonna try the agility course at the dog park. And start training her to play with toys again, she likes them inside, but their are only a few she goes for outs…
-
Well this only lasted one hour as it seemed today that Kuma did not want any interaction with me. She also didn't seem overjoyed she had to be leashed as well. But I have noticed she's starting to get fairly disinterested like Shiloh did at this age…
-
@WrylyBrindle Alright after searching since it was bit vague, it says dogs must be on a 6 foot leash or less when off of your property. Wow they really must not be enforcing this because I can talk about how much I have seen dogs off leash in park a…
-
@NavyDog Really nice! I may take the knot idea but I also already have a stronger jogging leash that I can add this leash as an extension. Maybe also add this when tying her to maybe like a tree in an very open area for training. @zandrame I was th…
-
@Myabee09 Thank you very much! Also since you did jogging I was wondering what pace did you start out with when it comes to both dogs? I know the feeling about that when it comes to dog boredom, we get as many toys for the dogs to play with and eve…

Alright sorry for being gone I had finals and other things to do, like 2 hour trips to the dog park haha. But checking back on this, thanks for the information everyone! This has been very informative, I will hopefully be able to visit or meet with …

This thread has been really helpful so far, I'm copying the conversation into a word document. Thank you everyone!

@Crispy Thankyou for the answers! Gives me a better scope of the breed, and thanks for telling me the size as well, I was looking at weight on different sites that on average they are 40-50 lbs which is what i was going on. And for Kais it was 30-40…
