# ATL Shiba Meetup *12/21/08*, a few new pics added Today we had a shiba meetup that I was so thankful for. This weekend has been a lot of fun because all of my family has been in town, but it's been fairly emotional as well.

This weekend has been a lot of fun because all of my family has been in town, but it's been fairly emotional as well. My uncle gets very emotional when he sees me because I look a fair bit like my mom and it makes things just a bit much for him & with it being Christmas, etc, etc. Anyway, today we gathered together at a coffee shop that has a small dog park area attached. I got there a little bit late, but it was a great day. I don't have that many photos, but Dave took a bunch, so I'm hoping he throws them up on picasa so I can steal them all. Here's the few that I took and one of the 19 that my niece took (group photo). Niko Lucy Jazz Sasha, Yumi, Jazz Chad, Dave & Lucy Here's Jazz after the meetup while waiting for me to get set to leave. ## ljowen123 (moderator) · 2008-12-21T23:14:18.000Z Also, this was the 1 year anniversary for me meeting Rachael & Dave - my, how time flies! ## MommyofNiko · 2008-12-21T23:16:36.000Z Love the group photo...with Sasha sitting right in front. You had to put that one in huh LJ? Sasha couldnt do a full orbit this time, even though she tried. She did really good today. So did Jazz, they both wandered away from us! The 2nd pic of Niko is so cute. ## ljowen123 (moderator) · 2008-12-21T23:17:19.000Z I had to make sure to get Sasha's photo in there! ## MommyofNiko · 2008-12-21T23:17:20.000Z Happy anniversary Dave and LJ!! ## ljowen123 (moderator) · 2008-12-21T23:18:09.000Z Right back at ya, babe! ## _dlroberts · 2008-12-22T00:29:03.000Z LOL. Thirded! Today was the PERFECT weather for pictures. I took 160 pictures in the first 45 minutes and then it occurred to me that I should probably, ya know, be a little social. Anyway, the 160 shots I have will take a bit to sort through and edit, so I'll post them in a few days. ## KFontaine04 · 2008-12-22T10:16:55.000Z Awww, Jazz got her pretty pink Puppia! YAY, Sake has the same one. Now everyone knows they are GIRLS :) Cute pics, can't wait for some more. ## ljowen123 (moderator) · 2008-12-22T10:54:16.000Z I know I can't wait to see the photos either! Jazz did pretty well yesterday - especially compared to last month's outing. We had one dog that was a bit rude and Jazz was not happy about that, but after Thor & his owner left - things were pretty good. Jazz stayed on the ground pretty much after that. ## Calia · 2008-12-22T11:07:12.000Z what's a Puppia, if you don't mind me asking ## KFontaine04 · 2008-12-22T11:13:11.000Z It's the harness. ## tsukitsune (moderator) · 2008-12-22T11:24:43.000Z Jazz looks like she at least enjoyed her ground time! Thats awesome! Great pics! ## ljowen123 (moderator) · 2008-12-22T11:24:54.000Z Jazz needs a harness that she can wear 95% of the time and won't hurt her when I have to pick her up very quickly by it to avoid confrontations. The puppia harness and others like it fit the bill perfectly. ## StaticNfuzz · 2008-12-22T13:47:00.000Z Wow a coffee bar attached to the dog park....you guys are posh (LOL). Best we get are poop bags if they are in stock and running water to fill water bowls. : P Looking forward to other photos of the ATL gang. : ) Snf ## ljowen123 (moderator) · 2009-01-22T12:09:35.000Z One of our meetup members sent me more photos of the December meetup and I thought I'd share my faves. Jazz is practicing her Shiba mind control – she’s trying to get someone to pick her up. The funny thing is I think everyone takes a photo of Jazz like this - she is used to a camera and will look up at you until you take her picture. Pububuu takes on the rude bulldog that kept body-checking me Jazz in her jacket Reminded me of kids covering their eyes which meant you couldn’t see them. ## Sangmort (moderator) · 2009-01-22T20:53:27.000Z That first pic has to be one of the best I've seen of Jazz! She's SUCH a pretty girl! [ & knows it haha ] The last one is super cute as well. :) ~ ## _dlroberts · 2009-01-22T20:56:23.000Z LOL. That is such a typical Jazz pose. When I think of Jazz, I either think of that image or of LJ holding her. ## tsukitsune (moderator) · 2009-01-22T21:11:45.000Z Jazz is so regal, thats the best word I can come up with... just a total queen! ## brada1878 (admin) · 2009-01-22T21:19:18.000Z LJ - were these taken at that coffee shop / dog place downtown? ## ljowen123 (moderator) · 2009-01-22T22:15:59.000Z Osy - I swear, every meetup, there is a pic taken of Jazz doing that exact thing - I mean, after all, there was dirt. Dave - that's because she likes to be held when we are outside. Compare how she does indoors to outdoors - you've got to admit it's vastly different. Jen - She knows that she's royalty. Brad - They were - Park Grounds in Reynoldstown. ## _dlroberts · 2009-01-23T00:58:58.000Z Oh yeah, she was a different dog this month. I've never seen her like that. I was shocked (in a good way). :-) --- **Navigate:** [Forum home](https://nihonken.org/community/?format=md) · [Sitemap](https://nihonken.org/community/sitemap.xml)
