Jenna & Snickers Promote Humane Education and Responsible Dog Ownership
Shibas can be difficult to train, aren’t recommended for first time dog owners, are too smart for traditional dog training methods, and they bore easily. So, how do you train a Shiba Inu? You think of it as a partnership. And bring cheese.
One month after Weatherbee was transported from the shelter to his new home, he’s living the high life. Here are some photos from his mom, Nancy, showing how he will be spoiled and doted on for the rest of his life.
When we lived in Indiana, we couldn’t walk the dogs outside because loose dogs in the neighborhood would approach us – even chased us a couple times. Luckily, we had a HUGE backyard to play in there. When we got ready to move to Mississippi, I made a point to find an apartment complex that […]

A lot has happened since my last post, but most importantly, we’ve moved (again). We’re all settled into our new apartment and routine in Mississippi, so hopefully I’ll be blogging more […]
Rest in peace baby girl. I hope we gave you everything you needed and that you knew we loved you ferociously to the end. We miss you sweetie.
This is a quick and dirty blog post, but I thought it would be easier to point everyone towards one post instead of writing and rewriting what’s going on into a bunch of different emails, postings, etc. Despite her age (16 1/2), Brandy has been very bouncy and energetic on walks since we adopted her.

I haven’t written a real post for awhile. I’ve been focusing more on making time for “walkies and snuggling” with Snick when I’m not at work or working on the various projects (Shiba rescue, crazy Twitter projects, meetups, etc.) that he gets me involved in. I still want this site to be a place to […]
