Thank you to everyone whose put in their 2 bits!

@OtakuBenny I think what @lindsayt was trying to say is that ethical and respondsible breeders are not the reason why there is a over dog population. So good breeder would breed dogs without finding homes for them first. Yes there is a dog overpopu…
-
@jigzozor You need to make sure that you are ready for the daunting responsibilities of being a breeder. Oh yeah for sure, hence the 10 years from now. There is NO WAY I would be ready for that. Especially since I want to have a family soon. It wou…

@Crispy thanks for your insight especially since you are new to it. I've got a lot to learn but like I said, this can't be something I seriously consider until I am in my 40's so might as well start doing some stuff now so that if I feel like it is…

@saya I have had people on reddit ask about how to get one. I just said they are part of a preservation program and staying within the breeding program.

NEW Kiba updates. He has progressed SO MUCH in just the last few weeks. His confidence has gone up immensely and he is way less fearful. Here are the things he is starting to do. 1. He comes 98% of the time when called, especially if he hears the …
-
@Lolo24 Kiba was rehomed from Kim Fairbanks who was a breeder in Portland, OR. She had decided to retire from breeding but she has too many dogs and it was getting overwhelming and the dogs weren't getting the individual attention they needed (on to…
-
@ayk yes...I did. I was getting lost in this conversatino @Lolo24 I live in Redmond and you can come meet my Kai ken Kiba sometime.
-
@ayk I live in Redmond and have my Kai ken Kiba, but he is still adjusting from his rehome so he isn't the best to showcase their behavior because he is still building his confidence but he is very friendly and affectionate.
-
So Kiba I think is TRULY over the hump. He has changed so much! He doesn't run away from me anymore when I approach him. He lets me pick him up without freaking out. He will hop in the bed and get pets on his own now. He wanders throughout the apart…

@Bootz, my fiance's sister and husband have witnessed it first hand when they take the dogs to the empty baseball field and let them off leash. Adam and I have only spied on them with me FINALLY seeing them play in his parents bedroom as a spied on …

I wanted to share some pics from the weekend. Kiba did amazing. We went to my fiance's parents house and it was his first time and he loved it! He acted like a kid in Disneyland. They live on a farm and have a dog who Kiba already knew named Ripley.…

@Jedkai I got Kiba from Kim Fairbanks in Portland, OR. She decided to stop breeding and needed to rehome a bunch of her dogs and since I live in Seattle it was really convenient to come and get him.
-
If this is real, the owner is a shitty person who is incapable of rehoming a dog properly. Who puts "Very rare breed (going extinct). Needs to keep breeding"? They aren't going "extinct". Yes they are rare, but for the love of g…
-
Yeah for sure. When Adam told me about it...I was actually pretty concerned that he 1. Allowed it and 2. Didn't intervene. If it was me who was walking the dogs and that happened, I probably would have stopped it and told Kiba NO and made us leave t…
-
Oh forgot to mention the weirdest story. I wish I was there to see it, but Adam was walking the dog. We have ONE orange neighborhood cat that is actually super friendly. The dogs seem to LOVE this cat and the cat doesn't mind them. He is always ch…
-
Are you using positive training techniques? Yelling and being aggressive towards him will in turn make him be aggressive towards you. Have you worked with a trainer who is familiar with the breed? Doing and behavior modification? The dog isn't bein…
-
Update on his playing since it was small. But Adam has witnessed Kiba playing with Taro legitimately twice. So now we know he WILL eventually play with her under the right circumstances!
-
NEW UPDATE! Since I only posted on the facebook. WE GOT SUKI!!! It was actually really stress free. Suki is now in her forever home with a great owner who will give her an awesome life. I am excited that Suki is actually living close to me since I …
-
UPDATE! I have gotten a hold of the owner and offered $350 for her. She says she is willing to hold onto Suki until I can come visit her this Saturday since I live in Seattle. I gave her a lot of info to let her know I am very serious and asked if …

We actually just got back from a hike and he was SO FRIGGIN HAPPY! OMG he was reacting to me, he was frolicking and sniffing everything! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7RjJlJv0pU&feature=youtu.be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgtwGWFVAPw&a…

I wasn't working with Frank. It was a woman...forgot her name...but that was just the intro class I needed to take prior to being able to take the Growly Class. I think it is just 2 ladies who do the fearful reactive classwork. Not sure who Growl Cl…

Tain...you're right. I just get worked up. Here is the video of them playing in the meantime. He is so happy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UsRGZ6qFAdA

@wrylybrindle Yeah I was too late to submit anything, but I was also in the process of moving so wouldn't have had anytime anyways. I should be able to submit several to choose from even based off the prints I am going to work on.
-
@Kaja I should clarify that it is a little more towards the poses of the dogs. I wouldn't even be taking a full composition from a photo. I am not taking a photo and then just simply turning it into an illustration. I mostly just want to get the do…

@calia - definitely understand your concern. I am well versed in copyright laws as a designer. We had a whole semester simply on copyright laws and laws that protect your art as well. "The Handbook" from the Graphic Artist Guild of Americ…

@sukiandluna yeah was able to do that with Ripley, but the weather has been so piss poor raining, it is miserable to do that recently.
