She is one strong little puppy! How do I measure how tall she is? I don't know the right place to measure :P I would like to compare to other shiba's out there. ## sunyata · 2009-01-07T17:14:57.000Z Legs is absolutely beautiful in the snow! And so is Mr. Miso. :) I want snow... ## tsukitsune (moderator) · 2009-01-07T17:21:41.000Z you measure her from her haunches to the floor ## Sangmort (moderator) · 2009-01-07T17:22:06.000Z You measure from the ground up to the withers with the dog standing standing with front legs straight & parrellel to eachother, & hocks "straight" & parallel to each other. & in case you don't know where the withers are.. :) ~ ## KFontaine04 · 2009-01-07T17:46:24.000Z Thanks Jen! I <3 Osy and her doggie knowledge (With Pictures!)... Bringing the tape measure home tonight! ## ILuvMy2Shibas · 2009-01-07T18:49:14.000Z aww how cute!!! I wish i could let me dogs off leash to play in the snow....but its not allowed in our townhouse community!!! ## brada1878 (admin) · 2009-01-07T20:52:05.000Z Great pics! Looks like they had a blast! ## Sangmort (moderator) · 2009-01-08T02:09:03.000Z lol Kristin! Sometimes I think I have too much knowledge for never having had a dog ;) I want to know how tall she is! ~ ## KFontaine04 · 2009-01-08T10:13:41.000Z She wouldn't sit still long enough for me to get a good measurement! That Sake, she never stops! From my guestimate I would say about a foot (12"), but I could be totally wrong. I will try and get her during some down time tonight. ## JessicaRabbit (admin) · 2009-01-08T12:00:19.000Z Osy, I think what is going to blow you away is how quickly any and all knowledge flies out the window when the dog is in front of you and misbehaving, or having a health issue... ## CrimsonO2 · 2009-01-08T12:08:03.000Z Hey Kristin, After reading your thread I went and tried to do the same to Ichi but he'd be doing his elongated sniffing or shying away from the tape measure. My guess is that he's about the same also since they share the same birthday:). Jesse ## KFontaine04 · 2009-01-08T12:09:19.000Z Yeah, I pulled out the tape measure and Sake ran away or went and pulled a "dead dog" on me...silly girl. I may try with some string or something and then just measure the string. She didn't like the sound of the tape measure for some reason. :) ## brandon_w (admin) · 2009-01-08T12:19:02.000Z String would probably be a better bet. Nemo would not like a tape measure either. Jess - You are right, all bets are off when a Shiba decides to get naughty or a dog gets sick/injured (possibly). Especially the sick thing early on with your first baby. I once dropped $250 at the emergency vet after Nemo slipped on the ice and limped a little. I had only had him three weeks and I was terrified that he was so injured, really he was just being a drama queen. ## KFontaine04 · 2009-01-08T12:26:15.000Z LOL, I know what you mean Brandon. Every time Miso yelped as a pup I would freak out! He is a wuss though and I know that now. Im gonna try the string tonight...although knowing Sake, she will try to eat the string. :P ## Ryu · 2009-01-08T12:38:30.000Z Been there. After a week of having Ryu (and being clueless!), we ended up in the ER for diarrhea. I was convinced that he had parvo. $250 later, I now know to TRANSITION food changes LOL ## _dlroberts · 2009-01-08T13:53:09.000Z Hehe. You guys think you are bad, my vet knows *ME* by name. I don't even have to mention my dogs when I call. :-( ## Sangmort (moderator) · 2009-01-09T00:57:06.000Z Oh, I have no doubt in my mind guys! :) I'll post a thread on here..."OMG! He WONT poop! What the hell is wrong with him?! Should I take him to the vet?! Is he sick!?" or "He blinked eight times in a row! Is that normal????" or "He wont stop running around in circles! What should I do?!" o lol Expect other such insanities when the time comes ;) It doesn't help that I am COMPLETELY paranoid about my babies' health. The vet & all the vet techs not only know my name, but my iguana's as well. [ & I just started going there 4 weeks ago ] I've been freaking out since he hasn't been eating since he broke his leg! & when he first broke it I thought they'd have to amputate! I was SO scared & cried the whole night & the 30 minute drive to the vet :( [ & I never cry! ] & then when I told the vet after he put the cast on & said Shinra would be fine..he LAUGHED so hard at me. UGH! I'm a very paranoid Mother :) ~ ## KFontaine04 · 2009-01-09T10:30:21.000Z HONK HONK HONK HONK HONK. So I measured Sake last night and would you belive she is near 14 inches! Yowza, that is a tall girl! ## tsukitsune (moderator) · 2009-01-09T11:08:36.000Z I'm like "why is Kristin Honking"? got it. Osy. ## KFontaine04 · 2009-01-09T11:15:50.000Z :P~ ## Sangmort (moderator) · 2009-01-09T14:36:57.000Z lmao ! :D ~ --- **Navigate:** [Forum home](https://nihonken.org/community/?format=md) · [Sitemap](https://nihonken.org/community/sitemap.xml)
