He is pretty sitting like that. ## Sangmort (moderator) · 2009-02-02T04:13:41.000Z I see....arctic fox! :) ~ ## Sangmort (moderator) · 2009-02-02T04:15:14.000Z & I disagree, I think this is my favorite! [ imho :p ]~ ## sujewel · 2009-02-02T09:13:21.000Z WOW. Maui pix! So rare to see him on camera. Those are beautiful pix. I especially like that he's squinting. Gives him more personality in 2D. ## Leonberger (admin) · 2009-02-02T09:35:34.000Z The little guy is handsome with his posing face :-) It's incredible how he keeps himself so thin. ## brandon_w (admin) · 2009-02-02T10:14:03.000Z I like the second one. Nice lighting, nice cloud reflection in the window. Maui is a cute boy. ## KFontaine04 · 2009-02-02T10:47:57.000Z Maui is so adorable. I love his little face. How much does Maui weigh? Pictures of shiba's are always so deceiving. ## tsukitsune (moderator) · 2009-02-02T10:51:51.000Z he's a handsome guy ## _dlroberts · 2009-02-02T11:08:12.000Z He looks so content in those. Did you make that perch specifically for him? ## asia · 2009-02-02T11:41:30.000Z Very handsome! ## brada1878 (admin) · 2009-02-02T13:54:31.000Z Kristin - Maui is pretty thin, he eats like a super model. Last time we weighed him he was 14lb. The dog has had more [medical] tests done on him to see why he doesn't eat and why his skin is so dark... but we never find anything. I think he is just strange. lol. Dave - Yep, that is his "safe place" outside. When he freaks out and gets all zoomie crazy on us he will retreat to that spot to escape the other pups [they like to chase him, and he likes them to chase him - until he wants them to stop]. The only other pups that go up there are Loa and Kona, and they are very gentle with Maui so he is ok with them. It's kinda like his "base". ---- ## KFontaine04 · 2009-02-02T13:56:41.000Z 14lbs! Wow that is small. Sake just weighed it at 16.6! ## sunyata · 2009-02-02T13:59:50.000Z He does look rather content on his perch. :) I really like the first picture. You caught his expression just right. Were you using your 50mm or your zoom? ## brada1878 (admin) · 2009-02-02T15:31:56.000Z oops, Jen just corrected me, he is 16lb. I was using my 70-300 @ 70mm - that lens is perfect for catching the dogs unexpected. I LOVE my 50mm, but it is hard to use w/ the dogs since they move around so much. ---- ## ddowdemers · 2009-02-02T15:36:33.000Z I love Maui. She was so sweet when we met her in December. I love the first picture. ## Romi (admin) · 2009-02-02T17:31:19.000Z Maui Maui Maui! He is the sweetest Shiba! You know what I noticed...Maui and Ninja look very similiar is build. Since they are both skinny and not very fluffy - it really makes their upper body look buff! I think we should introduce Ninja and Maui - they would probably be best friends and talk about all their issues - HA! ## ddowdemers · 2009-02-02T18:14:11.000Z whoops...of course I know that Maui is a boy. Sorry Maui. ## brada1878 (admin) · 2009-02-02T18:40:59.000Z No worries, he is a very feminine boy anyway. lol. Romi, that would either go really well or horribly bad. I'm willing to give it a try. LOL! ---- ## Calia · 2009-02-02T19:24:47.000Z Bit late, but those pictures are just adorable, you can almost see him smiling ## lindsayt · 2009-02-02T20:47:16.000Z "Feminine boy", I like that description much better than hearing "bitchy dog", it doesn't make him sound all mean and nasty that way. ## baanton · 2009-02-02T21:15:19.000Z Maui is adorable! I love the first pic of him --- looks very regal and satisfied with himself! Thanks for sharing! ## brada1878 (admin) · 2009-02-04T21:42:01.000Z A new one of Mr. Taco [aka Maui]... ---- ## JessicaRabbit (admin) · 2009-02-04T22:12:54.000Z That may be my favorite picture of any cream colored shiba ever. ## KFontaine04 · 2009-02-04T22:57:10.000Z He looks like a doggie model. I love Maui. (don't tell Sake:) ## sujewel · 2009-02-04T23:52:38.000Z Maui is so photgenic! LOVE that last pic. ## hondru (moderator) · 2009-02-05T01:29:26.000Z The first one is my favourite. ## tsukitsune (moderator) · 2009-02-05T11:08:42.000Z why "mr taco"? ## brada1878 (admin) · 2009-02-05T14:54:56.000Z We used to eat a restaurant called "Maui Taco" - I think they all closed... but early on in Maui's life, because of that restaurant, we started calling him "Taco", or "Mr. Taco". ---- --- **Navigate:** [Forum home](https://nihonken.org/community/?format=md) · [Sitemap](https://nihonken.org/community/sitemap.xml)
