Likes:
Attention!, digging, chewing, going for walks, chasing bees, chasing the water from the hose, playing chase.... and much more.

Pet-Peeves:
Having his muddy paws wiped off, baths, being ignored, and sometimes being on a leash.

Favorite Toy:
Mr. Duck, Mr. Bunny, Crinkle Fish, squeeky pad...anything soft and squeeky.

Favorite Food:
Anything we're having.....including carrots! But he loves fish, popcorn, peanut butter and cheese especially. (not all together...ew....well he'd probably like that, huh)

Favorite Walk:
Anywhere! But if he were on his own, he'd walk straight to his friend Miss Molly's house so they could run around and dig in the dirt together.

Best Tricks:
Sit, Down, Stay, Wait, Fetch....dig a giant hole, eat lots of grass and plants and then throw it up, outrun pregnant mommy in our circular floor plan.

Arrival Story:
Mommy has always wanted a dog, but never had the time to put into caring for one. Now she and daddy have been talking about what kind of dog for the past couple of years. After researching different breeds, they pretty much decided that a Shiba Inu would be the one. Then they went to Japan where there were Shibas everywhere! Well, they just got married in May and moved into their new home. Once they got settled, daddy surprised mommy with a trip to a nearby breeder. I was only 1 week old and hadn't opened my eyes yet, but they could tell that I was going to be a dashing young pup once I did. They came and picked me up and brought me home to Seattle a couple months.
