Jenna & Snickers Promote Humane Education and Responsible Dog Ownership
Today was a good day. Snickers and I started off the afternoon (which is the beginning of our day after all) with romp in the snow covered dog run. Then Snick managed to take me to his favorite liquor store. Yes, I said my dog has a favorite liquor store. Jersey City Wine & Spirits […]
This video says so much. Just watch it. This is what we do in rescue. I wish more people would help so less dogs would suffer and die. If you help, thank you. If you don’t… well, suffice to say, I just don’t understand.
Brandy seems to be more attached to my daughter than to me, probably because they spend more time together and go on more walks together. Brandy’s crate has been in my room with me and Snick, but, since she’s more attached to my daughter, this weekend my daughter rearranged her bedroom and Brandy moved.
Brandy went to the groomer on Tuesday. They brushed out all the loose undercoat, clipped her nails, gave her a bath, cut out the mats and trimmed her little butt feathers. She came back looking like a different dog. Here are a couple photos of her that night, while she was still wearing the little […]
One week ago today, my daughter and I added a third Shiba to our pack. Please welcome darling little Brandy (who we’ve affectionately started calling Ms. Brandywine, as it seems to really suit her). Last Friday, I received an email about this little girl. She’s 16 years old and had been surrendered to a shelter in Connecticut after her owner passed away. This is a good shelter in a nice area with a policy of only putting dogs to sleep “that suffer from medical or behavioral conditions that are beyond treatment and render the pet unable to be placed with a family,” but Shibas don’t tend to adjust well to shelters and the idea of a senior Shiba most likely living out her last days in a shelter was more than I could stand.

Oh. My. God. This may be one of the most fun things you can EVER do with your dog. This past Saturday morning, Snick and I trekked to Central Jersey with friends Catherine and Nick and their two dogs Wylie and Tigger. I believe the course was about 700 yards long. No one was officially […]
I’ve been spending all my “free” time (of which there is very little) working on the restructuring plan for NYC Shiba Rescue and recruiting volunteers to fill the new positions. Snick and I manage to post tidbits on twitter and facebook occasionally, but finding time to write a whole blog post has been difficult. One […]
Snick and I planned the National Shiba Club of America’s booth at NYC Meet the Breeds 2009. Along with volunteers from the NYC Shiba Meetup and NYC Shiba Rescue, we had a great booth and lots of fun.
What will Snickers and I be up to this weekend? We’ll be at Meet the Breeds! The National Shiba Club of America – along with volunteers from the Shiba Club of Greater NY, NYC Shiba Rescue, and the NYC Shiba meetup group – will have a booth FULL of Shiba Inus for the public to […]
