Bite your tongue

Yesterday I bit my tongue at Puppy K class. And there were little blood droplets on the floor and on the puppies I was playing with. I feltz kinda bad cuz one pup had a pretty white coat. I didn't even realize what happened until mom and dad ran me into the bathroom. THEY MADE ME MISS PLAY TIME! ugh. I may be the smallest pup in the class but now I've shown them all my SUPER SHIBA PUPPY POWERS. nothings gets in the way of me havin da funz! Except when the humans pick me up and take me away *grunt*

You talkin' to me?

What you lookin' at foo?

Updates..

Well, in the past 2 and a half weeks I've not only learned a lot MORE about Shibas, but also now remember what it's like to have a puppy. Everything is new for little Knox and sometimes he handles new things well, and sometimes not. Such an example would be this fine rainy morning. Knox and I were out for a walk and came across big scary garbage trucks. Knox was so scared he pulled on his leash and dashed home. Usually I'M the one pulling him for walks. And ever since then the poor thing has been randomly whining and just seems really nervous. I feel terrible =(

Shibas are a REALLY mouthy breed. I remember with my dogs in the past, as puppies they were MONSTERS when it came to biting. Knox seems to be going down the same path. But he is also biting faces, legs, clothes, etc. The face biting really scares me and I'm hoping that 1: It will eventually go away after this puppy phase is over; and 2: How we're handling it is correct. He gets into these modes once in a while when he's so hyper and overstimulated he is SO mouthy and biting us non stop. We try to either crate him, while giving him plenty of toys and/or we just walk away into another room where he can't get to.

I just want to pet him and kiss him and he is NOT having that when he's in that "mode".

I'm starting to think he doesn't have a UTI. The peeing in the house has stopped. But the occasional trips into the living room to let him explore is also over (This is where he had most of his accidents- more recently, the accident right on our brand new couch!) Ever since we blocked him off completely he has been fine with no accidents (knock on wood)

We are doing our best with socializing him as much as possible. He likes meeting new dogs so much which makes me happy and I hope it stays this way. He also likes meeting new people, although now he gets so excited when people pet him to say hello, he usually chews on their hands.  A tad embarrassing but I think most people and dogs are forgiving of that because he IS a puppy still.

Our first Puppy K class is tonight and we're really looking forward to it and can't wait to see all the puppies interact!

And check out the cool seat belt harness we got for him! He feels so-so about this. But I say tough nuggies, it keeps him safe and us safe.

A Shiba is a Shiba, NOT a fox, a corgi, a husky, a teddy bear, or an akita

If one more person tells me Knox looks like a Corgi, I'm going to go nuts!

Here is a Corgi:

THIS is a SHIBA:

He is also not to be confused with a teddy bear (inanimate object), a Fox, a Husky, or an Akita.

Thank you very much! bahhh humbug =)

SHIBA CRUELTY!!!!!!!

SOMEBODY HELP ME. THIS HAS TO BE ABUSE!

Alls I know is that wuz wet and NOT FUN. 

I am not happy about thiz.

Somebody pls alert someone of these cruel acts.

Until then, I'll just nap in my fav spot...

Licks,

Knox

Thank goodness for technology!

Thanks to my buddy Kaiju and his mom, we found this great app that lets mom + dad check on me when they're far away from me at that stupid "work" thing.  It's called iCam and they can leave a webcam on me and can check on me through their phonez and watch me sleeeeeep. Mom says it makes her breathe easier. I dunno what that means...

This is how I like to sleep in my crate! Comfyz!

I made a boo boo twice today...i peedz inside the house =( Mom and dad are worried I might have something called a UTI so they keep trying to hold a stupid cup underneath me while I go to grab muh peez. GROSS GROSS GROSS. They tell me the vet needs it but I don't care. I need MY privacy.

Updatez to come! BYE!

Love,

KNOX!
