Shio eats better than me. You don’t believe me? Every week, Shio’s food is professionally prepared with a meatloaf recipe adapted from the inu-baka blog: The base of his meals is the “Ultimate Shiba Meatloaf”, which consists of ground beef, turkey, chicken, liver, assorted veggies (broccoli, carrots, string beans, etc), blueberries, parsley, eggs, flax seeds,…
I love how Shio chews from the side of his mouth…
And so gentle taking the treats! No snatch and grab! Good Shio!
Where is Shio? Why does he look so concerned? Why is there a mess around him? On the next season of Shio the Shiba… Photo taken with Nikon D700, 24mm f/1.4G (aka the Suki lens).
Tell Shio, tell!
hmm 24mm f1.4. hmm. how tempting (but oh so pricey). do you love it?
and, when does this season start?? we’re waiting!
I personally think the 50mm f/1.4 will is a more useful everyday lens, but the 24mm is definitely very sharp and renders the out of focus areas (bokeh) nicely.
The next season will begin very shortly actually! 
Haha, “The Suki Lens”
I read that while wondering if you knew of Suki. Glad I found your blog! I always tell people that if I had no choice but to choose one lens to have, the 24 1.4 would be it. My favorite lens ever =)
Shio had a great time this morning at Prospect Park. Now that the ice has most melted away, he can run free again! Photos taken with Nikon D700, 85mm f/1.4. Trying out the square crop for fun…
After a few days of warm weather, Shio was pleasantly surprised by snow fall. He dragged us to the Pier — as he always does when there is snow. Photos taken with Nikon D700 + 50mm f/1.4.
Awwwwww, look at that happy, happy Shio, especially in the first pic–as always, thanks!
He LOVES snow!! He looks so happy!
I’ve seen some really nice Lumix pix out there. Thanks for the rec!
I’m trying to save up for a DSLR though… even a used one would be nice right now!
And indeed, that looks like some mighty fine muttloaf.
You can get better action photos with the DSLR for sure, but for the most situations the GH2 performs just as well, and the size is a real advantage. When we take Shio in a car, and then also make sure he has his water, snack, etc., it is much easier to carry the GH2 than a DSLR. I often wonder what it’s like to have 2 dogs too…
In terms of DSLR, new entrants like Sony makes really interesting, and cost-efficient, alternatives to Nikon and Canon…!
mmmm yum! Shio is lucky to have a personal chef.
