Have not been here for a while: Kiyomi 4.75 yrs 37 lbs Keiko 1.3 yrs 38 lbs

Hi @justin. I had specified that I wanted a female, because I already had male Shiba who was then 5 yrs old. It was a pretty easy choice because I was first on the list for the litter and was leaning toward a black sesame. Kiyomi was the only fem…

@Shibafox, Kiyomi was in a Sherpa soft sided crate from Seattle WA to San Jose CA. No problems. She slept during the flight (2 hours). Probably would not feed your pup for at least a couple of hours before the flight as it may wind up puking…

@justin, Congratulations! Katja was very easy to communicate with, both via phone and email. I was on her waiting list for about 1.5yrs. I was waiting for a female and there were two litters which were all males so the wait was longer. We got c…

Hi @Shibafox, Have not been here for a long time. I got the soft crate from Amazon. Just do a search for "Sherpa-Delta-Carrier-Medium-Black" and it'll pop up. Pretty inexpensive and it was good for a few months. It just fit under the s…

Kaja's "rudeness" may ease up a bit as she get older and she learns what most dogs accept and don't accept. Kiyomi has changed a bit since she was a little pup. She was a terror when she was a younger pup, but she has also learned to ig…

Our Shikoku, Kiyomi, was so much easier to house train compared to our Shiba, Kuma, but he was a year old when he came home with us and he was previously a kenneled. Kiyomi had a few accidents in the house the first couple of weeks, but looking bac…

Wow! That had to be a shock @ttddinh. Glad to hear that everything is sorted out. Thank you @emi802 and @jigzzor for going through all the effort to make sure everything would work out for Kaiju. What a fantastic community here!!!

925 is the Antioch, Concord, Pleasanton, Walnut Creek area. We can't take him either as we've got two already. @Zandrame how old is your Shiba? Kiyomi(Shikoku) drives Kuma (6 yr old Shiba) nuts. They also play very rough... I spoke to a perso…

Kiyomi loves giving kisses nonstop. Kiyomi is fascinated by the garden hose and tries to bite the water stream. She likes to rub herself on my daughters wet her after she takes a shower. She will climb up the back of the couch get to my daughter…

There are quite a few Shiba Inu in the SF bay area, so a lot of people ask if Kuma is a Shiba, which he is. Then they ask if Kiyomi is as well, and I usually tell them she's a Shikoku. The usual reaction is "oh, okay" and that's where it…

Just added Kiyomi to the database, but ran into an issue when entering her registered name. Kiyomi is from Akashima and her registered name is "Akashima's Kochi Ken Kiyomi Go". It seems that the proceeding beyond the first search for dup…

Here's some interesting info regarding ice/snow and dogs feet. Saw this when the articles first came out.. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/01/13/dog-feet_n_1204709.html http://newsfeed.time.com/2012/01/17/dogs-have-built-in-snow-boots-resea…

Thanks @PoeticDragon and @laurenmarie! Took the pups to Newport Beach this morning, got there late, around 9:00AM. @PoeticDragon, didn't see your post until later in the day. Will have to try Charlie's. The beach was mostly empty, but it's a nic…

Thanks @*JackBurton*!!

Shoko is a cutie! Glad to hear she is doing better. They grow so quickly. Make sure you get lots of pictures for the first year. Kiyomi is 10 months now and we miss the fur ball stage. Have to agree with @Crimson02 and @TheYeti, regarding Ori…

@yo_eddy, our girl Kiyomi, is not dog aggressive, but she does seem to cause issues with some dogs. As @TheWalrus says, she can be an "asshole" to other dogs. There are a very few dogs we run into on a regular basis during walks and the …

Rolo is a very handsome pup. The last picture with the toilet paper is priceless. Sounds like you live in an great area for him to run around.
-
@yo_eddy Yuki's coat has changed much like the tan boys from the litter Kiyomi was from (Kimi & Dai, April 2014) They started out tan like Yuki, but their coats turned more black later. Yuki is a handsome little pup. Just curious, when you …

Pretty girl and very nice pictures!

@jigzzor, Kiyomi is just losing tufts. I just mentioned that both of ours are losing coat, to let you know that it's about that time. You may be dealing with both blowing coat and allergies.
-
@jigzzor, for what it's worth, Kiyomi is losing tufts of fur on her hind legs right now. She has not blown her coat yet since she came home with us. Kuma, our Shiba, is just starting to lose tufts fur from his coat. The weather here has been unus…

@Bootz & @emi802, unfortunately we have a 12:00 appt on Sat so we will not be able to make it.
-
We're all just minutes away from one another. We definitely have to try to get them all together. Kuma is pretty mellow, he'll just hang with the crowd. I'm sure @Bootz would like to join us, as well. She's been wanting to meet some Shikoku. Ki…
-
@jigzzor and @emi802, Katsu sounds like he has some similar personality traits as Kiyomi. Kiyomi also loves paper. She won't touch magazines, but pieces/sheets of paper are irresistible to her. She's pretty good about almost everything else, in…

Hi @emi802! I saw Bekki's pictures on Facebook and was pleasantly surprised to hear there is another Shikoku in the area. We also have Kuma, a 5.5 yr old Shiba Inu. Such a major difference in personalities between the two. We call Kuma the "…

Sorry for the late response, haven't been on the forum for a while. Yes Kiyomi, is in Saratoga in the south bay. She's about 9.5 mos old now.

@ruby, Kiyomi has a couple of black spots on her tongue as well @haalumni, I think we're keeping the first clone :) Thank you @keroline33 and Kira_Inu
