		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mom brought something home called a bonsai. It is a tree, but very small. I sniffed it and couldn't decide if I should pee on it or try to eat it. I am still pondering, however - she put it up on a table so it will be difficult for me to get to it now.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I am 5 today. Mom took me to PetSmart to pick out a new toy. I got a purple stuffed octopus toy. It squeaks and has dangly legs I can chew on. I am also getting a cake, but I have to wait until next week to get it. Mom is going to get it in Dallas at Three Dog Bakery. I can't wait to eat it! I guess I have to share with Yukiko and Deshi, but I want the biggest piece.]]></content:encoded>

I made an emergency trip to the vet, and Tetsu has now has an E-collar, stitches, antibiotics, and pain meds. Feel better Tetsu!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mom bought two bird seed feeders and I've been nibbling on seed that has fallen onto the ground. Mom always stops me and calls me to come inside. But, it is ever so tasty! If you haven't tried bird seed - I highly recommend it. It is a bit dry though. It could use a side of salad dressing.]]></content:encoded>

Afterward, we went to Freddy's Frozen Custard and had cake. I got some cool toys - a new ball, a basketball toy, and an ostrich toy too. What a fun day. Now, it is time for bed.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ So, I really didn't want to go outside today... Mom made me go out to potty a couple of times. The other times throughout the day when Deshi and Yukiko would go out I refused and would run around wanting to play with my gingerbread man toy. After all, it was cold and rainy out - much nicer to stay inside.

Well, later that evening when Mom went to work I found myself in quite the predicament. Dad was still on his way home from work and I felt the need to poop. What to do? I asked Yukiko to open the back door, but she didn't know how to open it. So, that was out. So, I would just have to poop in the house...

But, where to poop? In the kitchen would be easy cleanup for the parents... so, no that is out. On the couch would make it easy for them to find, but no - I like to nap on the couch. Maybe in the hallway? Nah. Oh, I know... the perfect spot! Right in front of Deshi's crate! Maybe the parents will think he somehow got out of his crate and pooped and got back in his crate! Perfect! So, that is where I pooped.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mom took Yukiko, Deshi, and I for walkies today. We walked all around a couple of neighborhoods then on a sidewalk off of a somewhat busy street. While on that particular sidewalk I spotted a KONG bone toy. It was dirty and looked like it had been there on the sidewalk for quite awhile. Deshi and I both sniffed at it and Yukiko couldn't care less about it. Since it wasn't next to anyone's house and obviously didn't belong to any dog in particular Mom decided we could have the toy. She brought it home and it is soaking in the sink with hot water and liquid soap. I can't wait till we get to play with it! 

On a related note about our walkie - while along that somewhat busy street Mom noticed in certain places there was broken glass from beer bottles. She was having to make us walk clear out of the way so we would not cut our feet. People littering and throwing glass onto a sidewalk irks Mom and us too. Why can't people dispose of their trash properly? Grrrrrr.]]></content:encoded>

"Ode to a Tetsuya

Tetsuya The Red
Wearing Happi Coats  Earns You
Merrick Wing-A-Ling"

Thanks Yuki! I love my gifts. Happy Valentine's Day!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I was tagged by Heidi. Here are the rules: Write 7 things about yourself others may not know, then tag 7 of your pals by paw-mail or rosette. Have fun! 

Here are my 7 things:

1) I don't mind Mom picking me up and cuddling with me.

2) I love my shiba get togethers with other shibas in the Hill Country Shiba Inu Club.

3) I get excited when packages arrive because they are usually for us dogs.

4) I have a favorite water bowl inside that I prefer to drink out of.

5) I received a new red leather collar from Raw Dog Leather today which I think makes me look like one sharp dressed shiba.

6) I sleep up on the bed at night.

7) I eat my food very slowly - I am always the last dog in the household to finish eating.

I'm off to tag:

1. Yuki-san
2. Kenji
3. Chipper
4. Yvie
5. Tinkerbelle
6. Dragon
7. Missy]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ ... Mom dropped Deshi and I off at the groomers'... there was talk about a bath, brush, nail trim, and something about anal glands?! I am desperately seeking someone to get me out of here. Mom said she would be back at 7pm tonight to pick us up. That is too long! By then I'll be clean, brushed, have trimmed nails, and we won't even talk about the anal glands! If you only have enough room in your car to free one shiba from the groomers'  - take me. Let Deshi get cleaned! He is so mellow and laid back he won't know what is going on till it is over anyway. Please, I implore you - get me outta the grooming salon!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ My gumball treat machine arrived today. It was just one day late from my birthday - so, not too bad. Mom was trying to teach me how to operate it. She held my paw and pushed down on the bone shaped handle and treats came out. I am still trying to figure it out for myself.

My birthday was fun. Mom baked me a cake and put treats on top of it. It was tasty. Then, that evening she met up with her friend Jennifer and we (Mom, Jennifer, Deshi, and I) went walking around the hospital track and the surrounding neighborhood for an hour. Yukiko didn't come because it was still too hot even at 8 PM for her.

I wanted to also send out a big Thank You to all you pups who sent birthday pawmails, rosettes, and special gifts. Big shiba smoochies to you all.]]></content:encoded>

She emailed the online store yesterday and they apologized for the delay. They had just received a new shipment from the company that makes them. Mom was told that she should receive the gumball treat machine and treats early next week. I hope it is very early next week since my birthday is on Monday. Oh... gumball machine... when will you be all mine?]]></content:encoded>

Then we came back home and we ran around the house and played a bit then we took our play outside to the backyard. A little after that it was time for breakfast. Mom decided to add a can of Merrick to our kibble. Yukiko, Kuma, and I got to eat some Cowboy Cookout. It was nice and tasty. After that we had a mini-play session and then a good long rest. Kuma's Mom picked him up about fifteen minutes ago. But, I get to see my pal Kuma at the Shiba Pawty this coming up Saturday. I am looking forward to that.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Kuma and I went for a walk last night. We had a fun time playing throughout the day... we played and played for hours and hours. Mom had to give us 'play breaks' periodically yesterday so we could rest. Once she took Kuma in the computer room with her for a bit and he napped in there while I napped in the living room. Another time she put me in my crate and let me nap while Kuma napped in the living room. We had plenty of treats throughout the day and at dinner time Kuma, Yukiko, and I split a can of Merrick Mediterranean Banquet - Mom mixed it in with our Kibble. Yummy!

Mom took Kuma and I out for an hour walk this morning. It was a lot of fun sniffing around - we even checked out a sprinkler in one of the yards and had our faces misted. Mom laughed at us standing there by the sprinkler. When we returned home surprise, surprise - we wanted to play some more. So, we ran around a bit in the backyard. Yukiko even chased us and played for a bit as well, but she got hot and wanted to come inside. We then came inside and rested a bit. A little later Mom fed us. We decided we didn't want our own food, but wanted to eat the other's food. We both get Innova although Kuma eats Innova puppy and I eat the adult formula.

We have been having such a great time playing together. We are now having a little nap - I think we are just gearing up and saving some energy for more play later. Woof!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mom and I went to the shiba meetup today at Georgetown Dog Park. It was a lot of fun, but it got pretty hot outside even though there was lots of shade. We stayed about an hour and a half. I saw my pal Kuma there and made a new shiba friend named Ella.

Kuma's mom was going to spend the weekend with friends north of Austin and was going to drive back down to San Antonio to board Kuma and then back up to the Austin area. Mom said she could watch him for the weekend. So, guess what? My pal Kuma is spending the weekend with me!

Mom is excited to have two shibas in the house for the weekend and I think it is a lot of fun too! Kuma and I ran around in the backyard and did our shiba zoomies while Yukiko woo wooed at us. Afterwards the three of us got a Groovy Dog Bakery treat. Yummy! Now we are relaxing. I think this is going to be such a fun weekend!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I woke Mom and Dad up at 3am in the morning. I wanted outside, but Dad told Mom not to let me out that there were cats fighting or something in the backyard. Mom had a look out in the backyard with the flashlight and then she called Dad out to look. They made me stay in the house. They said there was a raccoon and the shone the light on it as it wandered around the backyard and eventually scampered up the fence. Once the raccoon was gone they let me out. I could smell it still and I ran around the backyard in all the places it had walked. First opossums in the backyard and now raccoons... it is like wild kingdom here!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Ugh. It happened today pups... the dreaded B-A-T-H. I had been a bit itchy on my feet and legs these last few days so Mom figured a oatmeal shampoo bath would help. She bathed me with the oatmeal shampoo then I got a blueberry facial and she also washed me with the blueberry shampoo along my back so I would smell real nice. She even took a picture of me in the bathtub. I hope that picture doesn't show up one day on my dogster page. I have the sneaky suspicion it will though. The best part of the ordeal was getting out of the bath, getting dried off, and then doing the Shiba 500. That was a lot of fun.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I really did... I met Emmitt Smith at the Mighty Texas Dog Walk... he was about my size and a 7 year old shiba inu. Mom talked to Emmitt's mom and told her all about the shiba inu meetup group we have. I hope she and Emmitt join. He seemed like a very sweet shiba. I wonder if he can play football?]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mom had the not so bright idea to go roller blading with me today. I was fascinated by these rolling feet Mom had suddenly and was barking and play bowing at her. So, as she is skating down the driveway she slips backwards and lands right on her butt. She also scraped up the palm of her left hand as she hit the street. I ran towards her and was jumping around. I was ready to go after all. But, she just said a few choice four letter words then took off her roller blades and came back in the house with me. That will teach her next time to listen to that voice in her head that said, "Maybe roller blading with a dog is not such a good idea."]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I had agility class tonight. Class was ended a few minutes early because there was a rabbit on the field.  It must have gotten through the fence somehow.  Mom spotted it and told the instructor. Drat... I was hoping for a tasty bunny. The instructor had our parents hold onto us dogs as she tried to get the rabbit off the field. No luck it just hopped around. We dogs barked and made quite the commotion when we spotted that rabbit. The instructor really should have let us dogs help catch the rabbit... what fun that would have been!]]></content:encoded>

Mom was shining the flash light on me and telling me to come inside. Did I listen? Of course not... I could smell him... he was near... the hunt was on. Mom walked out further into the yard and said, "What are you after?" She shone the light up in the one of the trees in the backyard and along the length of the fence and didn't see anything. Then she shone the light onto one of the trees in the pasture behind the fence and there he was... my arch nemesis... Opossum. He was just beyond my reach. I will get you opossum. I will.]]></content:encoded>

He let me have some pieces. Of course Tetsu loved it and totally focused on me. It looks like I am going to have to make him steak from now on for agility. Is he spoiled? Just slightly. :)]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I had fun this Christmas. Mom and Dad gave me treats, and some sushi squeaky toys. Yukiko liked the sushi toys too. There were two in the package. She took one and I took the other. Mom was surprised that Yukiko played with toys. She usually doesn't. I also received a stuffed opossum squeaky toy. (It looks a lot like that opossum that was hanging out on my fence a few months back.) I guess they couldn't find a real opossum to give to me. I can't help but think it would be more fun to play with a real one.
My dogster gift exchange pals Kilimanjaro and Vesuvius sent me a cool blanket with my name on it, and a pillow. They also sent me treats and a red loofa dog toy (you can see Yukiko liked that toy - there is a video of her playing with it on her page). I also got a little squeaky bone toy. My shiba forum exchange pal, Yoshi sent me a cool yukata, which is a casual form of the kimono. (I opened that gift last month). 
I hope you all had a great Christmas! Bark at you later!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Mom took me to Petsmart today to get my nails trimmed. She stood outside the grooming salon and watched as the one groomer  held me while the other trimmed my nails. I am 26 pounds of shiba-tude. BOL! I put up a fight trying to wriggle my paws away - but the groomer won. The groomer cleaned my ears as well, which wasn't so bad. I did get a cool bandanna too and they sprayed me with some pup cologne. Bark at you all later!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I have a new kitty cat toy. Mom never thought of getting a cat toy for me before until she read about it on the Shiba Inu Dogster Forum. My pup pal Sarah mentioned cat toys in the 101 Reasons Why Shibas Are Great list. My new toy is one of those sticks with the feathers attached and a little bell. I love chasing it around! What fun!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I went to an adventure trail in Hutto, Texas yesterday. I met my shiba inu pals Kira and Yoshi (they are in my shiba meetup group). It was a lot of fun. It was a two mile trail and there was also obstacles like A frames and tunnels to go through. There was also a swinging bridge. I only went over that once, I didn't like it too much. I'll post some pictures when I get them developed. Woof!]]></content:encoded>

When I woke from my nap, I realized it was an evil pumpkin and started barking at it. Mom had to put it away in the kitchen so I'd stop barking.

My big sis, Yukiko was out there too and woo wooed at him, but that didn't do too much. Maybe she was trying to lull him into a false sense of security with her mala-song. It didn't work though... Mom carried me away from the fence and again foiled any chance I had to get that darn opossum!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Everywhere I turn there seems to be an opossum. I was in the backseat of the car the other night and I saw one cross the road... well, I made sure to scream nice and loud in Mom's ear. Nothing like a good shiba scream to get your point across. Well, Mom didn't get the point because she didn't let me out to chase after that critter. The nerve! I bet I could have caught it too.  
Tonight there was another opossum, right in my very own backyard! It was on the fence. (Maybe it was the same one from the other night... who knows?) Well, I jump and jump on the fence. Mom is standing on the back porch and she comes out to investigate what was going on. She sees that opossum and what does she do? Makes me go inside! Sheesh!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ So, here is a tasty new snack I recommend all you woofs out there try. Rollie Pollies... mmmm... a tasty moving snack! Whenever mom lets me out in the evening to potty, I run quickly to the backporch and lick up those rollie pollies faster than she can stop me. Mom tells me, "Ewww. Don't eat those!" I don't listen of course. Anyway, like I said before, they are a tasty treat and it grosses out the humans when you eat them. Bone appetite!]]></content:encoded>

I also chewed up a figure mom has, a Kitty's Critter, it was a little mouse. I chewed off its hand and chewed on its face. Mom has been leaving me out of the crate in between classes and coming home. You think she would have learned from yesterday... guess she didn't!]]></content:encoded>

I have a Texas shiba inu meetup group I meet up with two other shibas today there in San Antonio, Yoshi and Abbie. It was so much fun! I ran and played and wrestled other doggies. Mom got some pictures of me wrestling around. I also got to try out some agility equipment there at the park, that was a lot of fun! Looking forward to the next shiba meetup!]]></content:encoded>

Apparently this snow stuff is a rare occurance in Texas because mom kept going on and on about the fact that it was snowing! The best part is mom and dad both stayed home with me because their work was cancelled. Mom's work is cancelled tomorrow as well and dad's may be too! Woof!

I also tore the paper off of one of my gifts and I tore a hole in one of dad's gifts as well. Apparently I can't open my presents till Dec. 25. But will that stop me? No!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ It was a cold winter night and all through the house.
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
Mom was wrapping presents in the other room.
So, I dash around for a quick shiba zoom. 
When what do I notice by the front door?
There is carpet  I hadn’t noticed before.
I decide to sneak over and have a little chew.
I discovered this is tasty, better than an old shoe.
I chew and chew a hole clear to the floor.
Then I hear mom open that bedroom door.
I continue chewing like nothing has gone wrong.
Then mom sees my deed and sings the NO song.
I don’t see what all the fuss is about.
Chewing is great, woof woof I shout!]]></content:encoded>

I have all my vaccinations now, I have for awhile. These vaccination things are good - well, don't get me wrong pups, it hurts a little bit when you get a shot - but only for a few seconds, but these shots help you stay healthy. I now get to go for walks all kinds of fun places! Before I just got carried around everywhere. I have been to the park - both the one here in town and the one in New Braunfels, to the botanical gardens in Austin, to the walking trail out by the hospital, and the neighborhoods by my house. Oh, and best of all, I have been to Petsmart and Petco. So much fun! Woof!]]></content:encoded>

This hole is quite fantastic if I do say so myself! The only downside to digging is if you get your feet dirty, which of course you will, your human(s) will clean your feet. That isn't much fun at all. Mom washed my feet in the kitchen sink! The nerve of her... I'll show her though... by digging will go on...]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I dug a nice big hole in the backyard today! What fun! I dig it right by the back porch. If one of the humans steps in it and falls down maybe my sister and I can raid the treat jar inside. Hmm. That is a thought. Yet, the hole I created did not last long. *Sigh* ... later in the day dad filled it in. I guess I will need to dig another one in a more strategic location next time, one that the humans won't easily spot.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ ... And no, I am not talking about George, Paul, John, and Ringo. I love to hunt for beetles out in the backyard. Mom always stops me from eating them. Drat! There are so many bugs out there to chase and hunt... beetles, grasshoppers, butterflies, and many more. It is so much fun I tell you! My sister, Yukiko doesn't hunt bugs though. She is just so lazy. She just watches me hunt them. If she thinks I am going to share the bugs I catch with her, she is sadly mistaken!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I always try to grab a stick to chew on in the backyard. I would say they are the greatest thing since sliced bread, but I have never tried sliced bread, so I really wouldn't know. Another thing I like to do is chase bugs, crickets, butterflys... whatever! I haven't caught anything yet, but I am honing my skills!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ It is so much fun to zoom around the house and zoom around the backyard! My big sister just looks at me... sometimes she will run too... most of the time, she likes to nap. Chewing on things is something else I like. Mommy and daddy have to tell me 'no' a lot because I am chewing on something I am not supposed to be chewing on. Don't they know what fun it is?]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I arrived yesterday to my new home after a 3 1/2 hour car trip. My mommy and grandma picked me up. I got a little car sick on the way... that wasn't fun. I arrived home and got to meet my daddy and my big sister, Yukiko. She woo wooed a lot at me and we ran around and played in the livingroom a bit together. That was fun. I got to explore my new home and I tried to chew up a few magazines but mommy and daddy wouldn't let me! Drat! It has been fun. I look forward to learning more about my home and my new family.]]></content:encoded>
