So for those that know some about my dogs...Sasha is a nut and barks at the wind. We do our best to get her under control. We never get concerned until Niko barks. She somehow knows what is not ok and acceptable. She doesnt care if people are in the cul de sac but like this morning the meter man was in our yard and that wasnt ok. Well she was just outside going potty and she loves being out there so Sasha came in before her. Well she starts to psycho shiba howl and I went to look and there were some kids at the top of our hill messing around. I went out, asked them to go back in the woods where the dogs couldnt see. Well Niko then proceeded to sit at the back door and stand guard for the next 45 minutes. Sasha didnt even see the kids, thank God! That would of been a mess. Niko is an amazing guard dog! She knows exactly when to react and warn us! She got so much praise and treats...Im so proud!!

What is it with kids and the hill in the back of your house? Isn't that like the fourth time you've had an issue up there? Good thing Niko is around to stand guard! :-)

Great Job Niko~ That is really cool!

Awesome job, Niko! Do you think Niko could "Shiba email" Tosca about how to refine this ability? I'm getting tried of standing in the middle of my yard late at night as she barks into the woods across the street or just stands there. No joke, I've been approached by the police asking me what I was up to.

Yay Niko!

YAY NIKO!! Nancay, you never know, Tosca might be seeing something your non-shiba eyes can't see ;) lol ~
