  • Awww Nemo and Hanzo look like they had a great time together! Poor Yuri didn't get to stay around and glare at the boys from the couch the whole time? Hehe. Great pictures as always, Brandon! -Sarah
  • Heh am I the only one who watched the video of Ninja and the roommate and was just dieing to see what the human was doing?   Where was the praise when Ninja walked past him not acting fearful or growling?  Where was the human helping him by not …
  • The Association of Pet Dog Tainers (APDT) has a search function for trainers in your area that might be able to give you more information that you're looking for.   Some obedience schools will have at least one behaviorist on staff or can at least h…
  • I don't think it is unfair or cold to say that if you're really truly that concerned about your dogs behavior, trying to diagnose and solve this problem over the internet with people who cannot see the dog's responses and (no offense) may be getting…
  • Love love love the Hanzo Nemo pictures.  The HUGE smiles are the best ones.  Those boys are good buddies.  It always makes me think of boys in the halls at school who slug each other in the shoulders until it hurts and then go get lunch together.  H…
  • If you're *that* concerned about whether or not your pup is starting to show agrressive tendancies, it'd be best to have a dog behaviorist out to your house where he/she can see Ninja in action and give you a non-biased opinion about what is really …

  • Awesome.  I'm glad things worked out so well for you and Nemo and that he's recovering well.  Yuri's slab fracture was down to the root and pulp was exposed so she lost the whole tooth.  I'm glad that Nemo's wasn't that bad!!  Give him a hug from us…
  • Brandon, did you take Nemo to Spring Harbor?
  • The best way is to go back to a "Nothing In Life Is Free" way of living.  You want to go outside?  Sit.  You want your dinner? Down.  You want a snack, Short Stay.  Good Shiba.  You want to get out of your crate?  Down.   "Wait" …
  • How can you be mad at this face?   (Image)   (Image)
  • Brandon - I love the pictures you take of the Shibas.  Every time I look at them I covet your camera and wish I had an eye for such great shots.   Here's an older one of Miss Yuri making one of her little snarky faces. (Image) And on…
  • We always say that Shiba's remember slights like no other dogs.  I think its a part of the breed itself.  They hold grudges and are very reluctant to forgive and forget and generally aren't too tolerant of we stupid humans making mistakes. I tel…
  • When our foster dog slipped away from me, he was still new to us and had no trust and didn't know his name, we resorted to crating the other dogs and busting out a can of the most awesome wet dog food we had in the house.  We made a trail of huge sp…
