Fall is in the air, which means Shio no longer finds it too hot to run as fast as he can in the park! We went to Prospect Park today and took some nice photos of Shio and his new best friend Feta in the fall foliage. Here is Shio feeling the cool winds on…
I walked by a pet shop in our neighborhood and saw a Shiba in the window. Went in and asked about the price. Me: “How much for the Shiba?” Pet Store Guy: “She is 1450 ‘randomly’ discounted from 1650.” Me: “Okay.” Pet Store Guy: “She’s got a knee problem. Her knee…” Me (interrupting): “Luxating patella?”…
AWW! This breaks my heart! I have often wondered if we got Romeo from a puppy mill. It was kind of a weird deal and the breeders met us at a Mcdonalds to deliver him. And I never saw his parents! But I am SO glad he is mine now so I just try not to worry about it. Seeing that baby Shiba makes me want another one! Romeo just loves being the only child so I am not sure I could do it to him! Plus, I am not sure I could handle 2 shibas! Ha! Hope Shio is doing well!
oh man 
i started imagining….someone’s going to get this little girl, realize that it’s going to cost him/her tons to fix the physical issue, is unable to afford it, and…. ok, i’ll try not to imagine the worst. i really hope she lands in good hands…
Aww… I remember being lured by pet stores when shibas were the craze. Thankfully they’re no longer ‘popular’ so I don’t see them as often.. It woulda been so hard for me to walk away from that doggie
D’oh-
That looks like the NYC pet shop (grrrr, forget the name right now) I’ve seen on USTREAM-they always have the shredded newspaper.
Been trying Halloween costumes on Shio for this year and I’m not sure it’s gonna happen. He looks incredibly upset with clothes on! I’m a bad mom and I laugh at him as his legs suddenly stop working and flops down into a pile of miserable mush. That and the airplane ears (like Zuko on…
i think it’s fitting that he’s wearing the i survived shirt: he survived wearing all those costumes!
and the whale eye for the L.A. jersey is because of it’s a kobe bryant jersey, not because it’s a costume (go suns!)
lastly, the polo shirt is fantastic. makes me smile every time.
Awwww, Shio! Your Robin Hood moments–with Maid Marian too–are so memorable! Good to see you in so many blog entries and to hear about your visit with Georgie the kitty cat.
OMG, these are great fashion poses, Shio. do the catwalk, baby!
Haha Pong Pong does the same flop on the ground and doesn’t move.
I’m sitting at work and starting laughing out loud for real. Poor Shio! 
But I’m a bad mommy too — I laugh at Zuko when he gets all “sad” and pathetic looking. Thanks for sharing!!
hehe. this year Lucas is being a chinese supermannnn!!!
Whenever we see a cat, Shio will tug with all his might at the end of the leash to try and sniff the funny little creature that doesn’t want to have anything to do with him. We’ve never officially met a cat because the ones we bump into have been traumatized by dogs and run…
Awesome! Zuko loves kitties, we had two when he first came home. They were both old and had no tolerance for an uppity little Shiba pup. He learned to respect their authority 100%. Maybe Shibas are so cat-like they are in tune with their feline friends?
Great job Shio!!
I have a huge soft spot for lens flares.
And shibas, of course.
hi you have amazing photos!! and a cute dog too
i just have one question.. whenever i take photos that’s directly facing the sun, there’s always this red dot on my picture… how did you get rid of that? and how can i take glorious pictures of the sun in the background?
thnks
I love lens flares as well (clearly)…
Thanks! Instead of shooting directly in to sun, try keeping it angled to your lens while being present in the frame. That is a better way to get some of the flare and brightness without having to post-process…
