Julie, who writes The Misanthropic Shiba, has had a site about Shibas for a long time. It was one of the sites I read when researching the breed before buying Snickers years ago. Over the years it has evolved into a fancy (in a good way) site with a lot of information – a real Shiba resource – but there will never be anything quite like her original breed description, aka RANT.

Today, Julie retrieved the text of her original page and re-posted it on the new site. Take a look at The ORIGINAL Misanthropic Shiba (and then wander around the rest of the new and improved site. It’s pretty good too! :)

Dear World,

There are many factors that contribute to the overpopulation and mistreatment of companion animals in the United States. I believe the key to change is education. This website is my next step in attempting to do my part to educate the public.

Please take a look and let me know what you think. There will be many more blog posts and pages of information added as time goes by. I hope you’ll stick around, contribute your opinions, and become part of the experience!

Sincerely,
Jenna (& Snickers, of course)

A few days ago, I logged into Meebo and found this message waiting for me:

[12:45] Bibby: Hi, I have been enjoying Snickers Blog for a while. I have a Black and Tan Shiba called Lily, she is 5 months old and we just started puppy classes. Shibas are a new breed to me, I had big dogs in the past. i am amazed everyday how intelligent and brave my little dog is and often forget how young she is. I have also enjoyed the links on to other sites, especially about Shibas escaping, we laughed as Lily could not be held in a puppy pen and baby gates only slowed her for a few days.

[12:45] Bibby: look forward to your new piece

I just want to say "thanks Bibby! you made my day." I know I have a lot of lurkers, because I can see all sort of stats on the hits on my blog each day. It’s nice and fun to get a note now and then though. :)
