Happy Friday Foot-in-the-air day!

17/08/2024

The humans just brushed Honey. I think they might have enough for another shiba (me for size).

10/04/2024

Honey decided this morning that the humans need more excitement in their lives, and that it’s her job to provide it. First, she rubbed herself in p**p (we’re guessing 🦌💩, because the 🐕💩 got picked up yesterday), and needed a bath first thing. Then, after playing all day at she decided to make a break for it out the garage door. The human lady dragged me out on my leash as a lure, and she followed me back to the garage, where the humans were able to catch her. But when the human dude picked her up, he realized she still smelled, so she got ANOTHER bath!

It’s Tuesday Tootsies in the Air Day!

18/11/2023

Could I be any cuter?

11/09/2023

I know it’s not foot-in-the-air-Friday or even Toes-in-the-air-Tuesday, but there is Stranger Danger! (The human lady says they are “plumbers” - I just know they make lots of banging noises!)

23/07/2023

There are distant booms. I will ward them off with my foot in the air, in the ancient Way of the Shiba.

12/07/2023

I am famous!

05/07/2023

It’s a two feet in the air kind of day today!

14/05/2023

Is it Honey? Or is it a T-Rex?

06/05/2023

Honey likes to roll in the grass right after the human dude cuts it…

21/04/2023

We have a houseguest, Meka, who is here until tomorrow, and we’ve been playing shiba games, like musical beds.

07/04/2023

The human lady says that Honey and I are even worse, at least when Hana and Leia were around, the cats stayed out of the yard when they were outside!

The human lady just accused us of being terrible watchdogs. How rude.

01/04/2023

Hi. It’s me. With my foot in the air.

12/01/2023

Just chillin’ on the couch with the human dude. With my foot in the air.

05/01/2023

Sometimes I feel safer behind my bed, rather than in my bed.

08/12/2022

Although I have an excellent head tilt game, Honey usually doesn’t participate, so the humans were very excited to see even this much of a tilt! (This was promoted by the human lady doing her impression of a barking Frenchie.)

07/12/2022

This is how we greet the humans after they’ve abandoned us.

07/09/2022

The humans took us to the pool yesterday to see if we like it (hard NO), and some little girls were asked by their dog what kind of dogs we are, and she confidently said, “Corgis!” The human lady had to explain to the girls (and their dad), that we’re shibas, which are specifically known for their curly tails, while corgis can be identified by their short legs and large ears.

Happy National Dog Day! (Although in our house, that’s every day!)

23/08/2022

There was a noise…

22/08/2022

We ❤️ the T-word!

13/08/2022

The humans say I’m a cute little nugget.

07/08/2022

It’s hot and humid outside. How are you keeping cool at home?

04/07/2022

Honey doesn’t do head tilts like I do, but she has very expressive ears. Right now her ears are expressing her disapproval of the robot vacuum.

02/07/2022

It’s that time of year again… I think I’ll just stay under the human lady’s desk for a few days…

27/06/2022

Honey made a new friend tonight… (Honey is fine and back inside, and the deer is eating bird seed from the bird feeder… 🤷🏼‍♀️)

22/06/2022

HALP! The humans are stealing my fur!

21/06/2022

Happy barkday to us! I turned 8 yesterday, and Honey turned 8 today! We celebrated last night with our fur-iend Luna. She’s only a year old, so she’s a bit rambunctious for us, but we all enjoyed some butt-sniffing. Later, we each got a scoop of pup cream! PS - happy belated barkday to my sisfur Pumpkin!

If I finish my treat before you finish yours, that means you have to share!

(For those who are concerned, the human lady managed to separate us into different rooms so Honey could eat her treat without interference from me!)
