Took Tasha in for yearly bloodwork and senior profile. She has another low-grade bladder infection (two in the past yr). Poor girl. But holy cow! Antibiotics are expensive! I about passed out from the price! We took Ronan along for the ride and had him weighed. Skinny boy weighs 37 pounds. He's also shedding ALL his undercoat and kinda looks ratty right now. Anyone else's Shikoku dropping undercoat? And what does your pup weigh? Ronan is 21 months old, 21 inches tall, and 37 skinny little pounds.

Yea, the price of Antibiotics are pretty harsh right now - I'm not sure why. It sux! Loa is blowing hard her coat core right now - she looks like a street dog or something. When Shikoku blow their coat its hectic! I think Loa is 20" and 33lb... now that her coat is gone she looks a little thin too! Loa has a very healthy diet tho. Ahi blew her coat a while ago, she is super soft right now. Ahi is a beast, she weighs 44lb and is around 22" tall. ----

Sora is coming up on 10 months (born last September), 19.5 in, 29.4 lbs, but she could stand to lose a lb (or it may be the coat that makes her look like that). She's a good eater though. I didn't realize she'd gained so much weight!! She doesn't seem much bigger to us though.

Kuma is the full brother to Sora (so 10 mos about) and is about 19 in tall and is 33-34 lbs(but maybe it is a variation on how I measure vs grandemu because he is definitely 33 lbs and not fat). He is on the thinner side as he is not a big eater. He also has lost all his coat. Wow Brad, Ahi a big girl for a Shikoku! She is bigger than Ronan and Tenji!
