That's why I have no intention to sedate him.
-
I am moving back to Japan permanently, that's why I'll take him with me. Otherwise I would not give him such a horrible experience. Most airlines do not recommend sedating animals during the flight because of the risk of injury while transporting…

Thank you for detailed advice, WrylyBrindle! I just bought a crate for him and will start training him as soon as it arrives. I really hope that he finds that crate to be his favorite place. Wish me luck :-)

yea, my takumi is not interested in eating vegetables that we human beings eat either....
-
Thanks. I guess it's ok to let him eat it then.
-
Thanks, everyone! I'll do some more research and add another source of protein to his diet. Thank you all for the valuable suggestions.
-
Thanks for the suggestions,everyone! I have not seen him allergic to anything yet, but I would have to be careful when I change the diet. I did some research here on Food, Nutrition and Health category, and found quite a lot of people use Innova EV…

Advantix has been working good so far. yea, they are really disgusting creature.... Im glad I dont have to pick them up any more :-)
-
Yea, one of my neighbors I talked to told me about Trifexis. I just bought Advantix and applied it to him. I'll keep posted how it goes. Thank you all!!
-
Thank you all for the great suggestions. I guess basically I just have to inspect him and pick ticks every time I come back from walk. I live in condo in FL and asked some of the neighbor dog owners. The people whom I asked do not seem to have tick…

The following comment by tsukisune drew my attention. >>They have a certain play style that most new dog owners would assume is fighting. I have witnessed my Takumi played with other dogs in the same manner as tsukitsune describes. It seeme…

Thanks for all the advice!! I will feed him less and make him a better shape. I did not know about the carrots. I will try not to give him too much. Thanks, AkiraleShiba!
-
Miami here!!
-
Thanks for all the comments!! As AkiraleShiba says, I am not really comfortable with his behavior, since my friend provokes it. But Takumi asks for it when he sees my friend, which makes me think it might be a Takumi's sexual need (even thoug he i…

Oh wow., it's interesting to know that even female dogs hump too! Thanks, Jessica!
-
I had a similar incident at dogpark the other day. An old couple who brought a cute female shiba to the park insisted my Takumi was not a pure bred :-(
-
LOL I picuted your dog in the rain and thought how brave he was...... He is really a MAN. ( your dog is a male, isn't he?) I will try the same to my Takumi next time.
-
Thank you, tsukitsune! Bullysticks look good too. I will check it out next time too.
-
Thank you for all the comments! I really appreciate it! I did not know about Himalayan dog chews. I will look for it next time when I visit pet store.
-
LOL. It's so funny! My Takumi signs a lot too.
-
Thanks, Kaddy! I used a ball to lure him out and it worked. It was a simple thing. Thanks! We just came back from long walk. There are lots of fallen palm leaf and coconuts after storm here in Florida, which are his favorite street toys. He had a …
-
Yes, I AM the first dog owner. I think there are still a lot to learn, then. Thank you for the comments, JessicaRabbit and tsukitsune. I am glad that I have people to ask anything about shibas. There are many knowlegeable and experienced people he…

I have to watch Takumi very carefully all the time when I walk him outside, otherwise you never know what goes into his mouth :-( I hate when he eats other dog's poop. I really wonder what kinda taste buds do dogs have??
-
I am in Miami, FL. It is also rare to see shiba here. Wish my dog had some shiba friends.....really :-(
-
Yes, Kaddy. That's what I am concerning about.... I remember that he's been doing this once in a while since he was a puppy, though.
-
Welcome to Jumbo Shiba Club, primitivedog! lol You also have made me worry again, though... :-( Here are the some more pics I just took, in addition to the ones I previously posted at the begining of this discussion. As I mentioned before, his tumm…
-
So cute! I printed it out and post it in front of my desk.
-
Takumi and me are so happy about all the positive comments! I guess I was worrying too much. But I will keep an eye on him to keep him in a good shape.
-
I have to admit when I was chosing pics to post here, I tried to select the ones in which he did not look fat...lol Now me and Takumi are happy, and Takumi has just got his favorite treat that he hadn't had for a while. Thank you all !!
