Learning about the rainbow bridge...

I have a furiend named Curtis. Mommy told me he crossed the rainbow bridge last week. I iz sad. I dunno what the rainbow bridge is but I don't get to see him anymore. I will miss running up to you and jumping in your face and making you run in circles to escape my hyper puppy ways. You were a good furiend. I wuv you and will see you again someday!

Curtis

Curtis' brother Porter is my bestest bud. He iz very sad cuz he misses his brother. Mommy takes me over to visit Porter a few times a week to cheer him up. I wuv Porter and don't want to see him sad, so I give him many shiba hugs and kisses.

cheer up Porter!

Mommy iz very sad. I lick her eye sockets when she is sad. She's giving me extra hugs, kisses, and noms for some reason. Whatever this rainbow bridge is, I don't like it! It makes everyone no fun.

I'm a free pup, finally.

The stitches are finally out and the cone is off! I used my Shiba mind control to make sure we made this weekend count. It was my first weekend back in the game and it wuz PAWSOME! I went to the dog park and dog store on Saturday and we went to a nice beach in Gloucester on Sunday.

Humans were really nervous about this weekend. Incase you havent heard (most of it iz lies anyway)..but in the past, I was accused of mounting and marking other dogs at the dog parks and beginning to act really dominant. I even used to try to mark places at the doggy stores and da vet. The marking of other dogs wuz rly bad. I don't know what came over me then. But this weekend it was all about DA FUNZ! I could care less about making sure I was the boss. I didn't mark or mount ONE SINGLE THING! I just ran around (yes, off leash...I iz a fake shiba) playing and chasing other dogs. My humans were super happy and gave me extra noms cuz of it!

Saturday wuz the first day back and we took a nice long walk to the doggy store then all the way to the doggy park. Although humans were stoked cuz it was sucessful, they weren't gunna get their hopes up just yet.

Come on MOM! I don't wanna stop to take pix! Let's GOOO!

But when we went for round 2 on Sunday, they were SUPER STOKED!  As long as I getz extra play time and extra noms...It'z all gravey! Plus I LOVE the beach!

 Guarding humom...

Hudad!

Humom!

Here's some pictures of me playing the role of Shibasquatch...

Taking in the scenery...

After my pawesome day...I came home to take a little nap.

Pawrents are pleased, so they gave me a brand new pig ear to chew on later in the evening while we kicked back and watched sum human football.

Shibas are not PAPER DOLLS!

Just because I am THE cutest creature on the planet, that does NOT MEAN YOU CAN CONTINUE DRESSING ME UP LIKE A DOLL. Wasn't Halloween good enough for you humans?! This is abuse!!!!

THIS IS NOT FUNNY!

When it rains...the humans put this stoopid rain coat on me. SO EMBARASSING. I show my hatred for it immediately.

And the worst one of all....

I iz sad.......

They should know by now not to do it. The second they put any clothing on me, I freeze up and refuse to move any part of my body. Serves them right!


HUFF!

N is for NEUTER.

Sorry, that sounds kind of crude. But as crude as it is, we (the humans) had no problems bidding farewell to those little tiny things that made our cute little pup turn into a crazy man! Knox is finally neutered!

In 1 month, Knox has picked up "marking" what was cute in the beginning has turned into a huge and embarrassing issue that clearly needs to be addressed and worked on. He has begun marking other dogs, and even has marked areas in dogs stores, other homes with other dogs living there, and even the vet. NOT OKAY. We all have our fingers crossed that neutering itself will fix this problem. If not, we have a serious problem on our hands. Obviously Knox is in his recovery stage so no rough play, and NO play dates. We don't even let him go up or down the stairs. He has to wear the "cone of shame" almost all day and he has a sedative the vet gave us to administer the next week if he gets too rowdy.

I'm hoping and praying that this post has positive updates. He LOVES to play with other dogs, but it seems his dominance has gotten the best of him =(

Here's a pic of the miserable sad face I look at daily....so pitiful.

Happy Halloween! ...Or not.

...wait....so Halloween means the humans get to dress me up in really itchy and uncomfortable clothing?

  Worst.Holiday.Ever.

I am not amused...

I was "Hugh Hefner- the ladies man" with my bathrobe and pipe. Humans said it was fitting because I love the ladies. Whatever. Still not reason enough to dress me like a doll. HUFF.

But don't worry. I got my revenge. When they dress me, i like to stiffen up and pretend like I can't bend any limbs. I also refuse to do any tricks. BOYCOTT!!

But....I guess the benefit was, the ladies really did gravitate towards me.

What can I say? I'm a ladies' dog.

Meeting Charlie

Charlie is one of humom's new DW Clients. He's a 1.5 Y/O pup who was adopted from The Humane Society just a few weeks ago. He's a sweet and happy boy, although he's sometimes a scardy cat. But that's okay, he's getting used to his new life. Humom brings Charlie over to our house so we can play and wrestle. We have lots of fun. We like to beat each other up and chase each other until we're pooped.

Saying "Hello"

Enjoying a nice walk. Beginning of a sweet bromance.

Nom Nom Nom!

 Charlie: "Hey can I have sum?"

Knox showed us a new "trick" he can do now after the introduction. He started mounting poor Charlie. Fortunately, Charlie didn't seem to mind (too much). But this is new with Knox. He only seems to do it with Charlie, and one other dog he met. But still, it seems our little puppy is growing into a dominant man pup. (We have scheduled his neutering a tad early- he has been maturing quicker than most since he was a wee pup)

 Knox: The "Boss"

Charlie: "OK THAT'S ENUFF!"

And now we rest....

After a couple weeks of playing together, it seems Charlie has gained more confidence, though. He is not letting Knox mount as much, and he is realizing his own strength and really can flip Knox on his back quick. Then of course my drama king whales and screams. Once the tables have turned, it's a whole different story. Figures. 

Puppy Teeth Farewell!

HOORAY! It's finally here! The puppy teeth are falling out! It all started last week with a loose tooth and a week later, he has lost at least 7, probably more but he seems to be swallowing them or losing them during walks or play time with other dogs. But all 4 sharp canines are GONE! See ya! Adios! Ciao!

 What little evidence we have of puppy teefers

Although I do feel slightly guilty because poor Knoxy is a tad confused about what's going on. He can't pick up his big orange ball anymore. And I can tell he's a little sore. So we've been giving him cold treats and baby-ing him extra amounts =) 

But Amos and I are quite pleased since just a month or so ago we were going nuts with the puppy teeth.

Next stop..neutering. 2 weeks from Friday. I'm very nervous about this. I'm hoping Knox will not be traumatized by this. But it probably needs to be done earlier rather than later. He's quite the alpha male. And he has just begun mounting other dogs. Yuck.

BEACH DAYZ WITH KAIJU!

Last Sunday was GUREAT. The humans and I played LOTZ and then the best part of the whole day was I had my first BEACH DAY! I had never been to the beach before and what better way to do it than with another Shiba?

We met up with Kaiju and his humans at Plum Island. Kaiju is a sweet boy who lives with his humans in Boston (check out Kaiju's blog for more amazing pics of this day). The humans have been following Kaiju's journey for a while, even before I came about. So this day was very anticipated! Naturally, Kaiju and I became buds very quickly. That's because we're shibas and we're pawsome. We played and played and played until the sun was almost down.

TEETH!

The Humans and I were very glad to finally meet Kaiju and his humans and can't wait to have a play date again! Hopefully the next time we will go down to Boston and play in Kaiju's hood!

We FURIENDS now!

The weather was pawsome as well. And after leaving the beach, I had a nice joy ride back home

Ahhh this is the life.

Licks,

Knox

My new ha-bee-tat

It's been a while since my last post. That's cuz pawrents and I moved. I wuz kinda scared at first cuz there wuz lots of loud noises but I'm really starting to like it here. I even have my own backyard.

But I am, like always, keeping things interesting. I don't like to pee in my backyard. That's GROSS. why would I pee and poop where I play? COME ON. Instead, i like to hold my pee until a walk :) They don't like it.

I love to lay out and catch some rays, though...

My other new favorite past time includes stalking anyone who dare come near my house. I'll sit at this window for hours. 

And humom snapped this as she pulled up to the house. I was awaiting her arrival...

So basically I just hang around the house n' stuff. Lots of new places to hang.

Lots more later!

Licks,

Knoxy Foxy

PUPPY TEETH MUST GO.

WHEN ARE THEY GOING TO FALL OUT?!? Our hands, arms, legs, and feet are all cut up from these DEVIL SHIBA PUPPY TEETH.

Please tell me there's light at the end of this tunnel.


Love,
The Humans.
