Shio @ Central Park

This week, a few friends (furry and non-furry) and I have been taking advantage of off-lead mornings at Central Park. Picture 3 adults, 2 large dogs and 2 medium dogs piled into a 4 door Honda. Quite a hilarious sight to see if you are on the road heading North at 7:30am commuting to work….

Barking Shio

Uhhhhh… do we own the only Shiba that barks? They are short and loud sporadic barks that give you mini heart attacks in the middle of the night. That’s so not cool puppy. Tweet This Post

hah we were told shibas do not bark either- lie. Our shiba babes has completely learned to mimic our dog boo’s bark- its crazy. When we were one of them barking we do not know which one it is. Does Shio do the shiba scream? Babes has also mastered that too.

His bark started as a small hiccup to a full on bark now! Drives me bananas!

He hasn’t Shiba screamed in at least 6 months. Been told that they grow out of it.

Puppyyyy…

Feeling pretty sad about Shio moving on to adulthood. In 2 weeks, he’ll be at his first birthday. Lately, I’ve been feeling pretty sad as the mum of our precious fur-baby and calling him “puppy” all the time. “Puppy – sit.” “Come here puppy.” “Puppy, no!” “Pupppyyyyyyy…” *sniffles* I guess he had to grow up…

LOL at your ‘puppy’ remarks. Please know you can call Shio puppy for quite some time yet! After all, all the vets I speak with [I volunteer at shelters] ‘say’ that they aren’t really out of that full-on puppy stage for sometime yet. [or at any rate you can slide into the "listen here kid" or "oh you youngins!"
Hope this helps… [me chuckling]
Thank you for this wonderful blog. I don’t always stop to comment, but I love visiting it and following your adventures with your own lives and that of your furkid!
