Did I hear my name? Ah, yes. The Invitational. I have been working on the logistics for this one. I don't think I will be able to do a drive across country. Too time consuming and depending on where I am at employment wise I won't have the time…

*JackBurton* I don't think you will have to worry, November 2 in general is too cold to have an outdoor even in Detroit and/or Chicago. You probably could but it wouldn't be very comfortable and folks would be bundled up. Historically high temps a…

My first question for you, is the puppy playing a lot? The more they play the more they pee. Playing can stimulate the bladder more as well as increase the need for water thereby increasing urination. My personal suggestion is do not yell no when…

People are quick to blame whether or not your dog is altered. In all honesty there are so many different factors that trigger this behavior. It can depend on the age of the dogs, the manners of the dogs, the energy level of the dogs, the number of…

I recently found this local company (Chicago) and checked their website and looks like in addition to internet sales and shipping they sell out of certain grocers in California, Indiana, Wisconsin and Colorado. The treats were developed by pet nutr…

He has a cousin in Chicago he is always welcome to stay with :D

Happy Birthday to your special guy. My male JA does the same thing with his head on the bed. If I don't reach over to pet him in a timely manner, he will put his his front paws up there too and give me a nudge.

What a good looking pup! Can't wait to see him in the conformation ring. Excellent pick.
-
Well, as long as the governement is shut down I guess if you have a dog to ship you may as well hurry up and do it!

A shiba under 2 years old would not be an ideal option for you especially if you are renting. They are very mischevious and energetic. When left alone for long periods time become very destructive as means for self amusement. Our shiba peeled wal…

About a month ago I switched to Nature's Variety Instinct for my Japanese Akita and Shiba Inu. I am feeding them the grain-free kibble with freeze dried raw pieces and they love it. I also give them canned. My JA is somewhat of a picky eater and …

These are great, Claire! My favorite is the pic of your friend twith the treats...doesn't matter if they are AA or JA, at heart they are all moochers! LOL!

@rikumom, Yes! I am in the Chicagoland area. I live in the western suburbs and work downtown. It really is humid here right now. It is disgusting. Just last night on our walk Kyuubi laid down for almost 10 minutes and wouldn't move. I almost …

We have all hard surface floors in our home, hardwood, laminate and tile. We own two Dyson vacuum cleaners. A big one that plugs into the wall and a hand held one that is battery operated. We vacuum everyday and use both vacuums. Depends on the j…

I have an 8 month old male JA. He is not a long coat but for sometime there was question as to whether or not he was. That being said, he has an extremely thick, long, plush, luxurious coat. Because of his coat, he gets hot pretty easy. In warme…

A couple of weeks ago I walked into the lobby at training class with Kyuubi, our 7 month old red Akita. Kyuubi is pretty big for his age he is already 60 pounds. He is the sweetest giant, however, and loves everybody. There were a few folks stand…

Yes, hip dysplasia is a pretty decent analogy. Thank you. The only difference is that with entropion you can have two unaffected dogs from unaffected lineage produce offspring that are affected. The American College of Veterinary Opthalmologi…
-
My point is that entropion is not a genotype. There are no heterozygous or homozygous alleles. It cannot be traced through a pedigree. It cannot be predicted through a pedigree. There are no genetic tests, in fact no way at all to identify it th…
-
I'm not trying to school anyone and certainly didn't intend to be interpreted as such. Clearly there is a misunderstanding about defined genetic traits. There is no clearly defined genetic base for entropion. It is not a clearly defined gene scie…
-
Read carefully @poeticdragon's explanation. There is no entropion gene so to say. It cannot be detected or screened. It is rather a combination of the physical traits of both dogs that when combined together effect the development, growth and str…

YES! Kyuubi the Akita puppy will be there. Despite being 53 pounds (as of last Saturday at least) he is a puppy and will be part of the puppy group on Friday. We will be there on Saturday as well to hang out and see the rest of the show. We will…

Since this is resurfacing, if anyone is still thinking about getting a Dyson they have a promotion going for 20% off and free shipping, runs till mid May. Just got an e-mail from them, thought I would share.

If Claire cannot make it I am more than happy to pick up her shirt (provided she agrees) and will send it to her. I'll have Kyuubi wear it first though so it will smell like him and Angi can snuggle with it for comfort while she is on the mend.
-
They are adorable together!

Similar to another suggestion, you can leave a t.v or radio on. Also, try leaving one of your dirty shirts or socks in the pen. Something you have recently worn so it really has your scent on it.

We are planning to attend the NIPPO classic. I have to book a room. Does anyone know, if you plan on being a spectator do you have to register or sign up anywhere? Or do you just show up? Is the show at the hotel? Does anyone stay at other hote…

So good to hear from you @king_bidgood! Just this evening I was showing my husband some of the recent pics on your Facebook page of Kaylee. She had a special spot in our hearts, we really fell in love with her. Mr. Kyuubi is doing well. He and o…

I am dying of laughter from the comments on here.
