Taking over Long beach



Last saturday we went to the Annual Naughty and Nice Shibas - Naples holiday Lights walk. It was held at the city of Long beach in the very small Naples island. It was a perfect night for a walk, perfect weather, the views are awesome, seeing all the houses full of eye catching Christmas lights and decorations.

I didn't get to take a lot of pictures cause it was already dark and I hate using the flash. Who can take great pictures if you have two leashes in one hand carrying two overly active dogs and a big camera on the other hand.

Christmas shibas! i didn't get their names though, there were like thirty or more shibas who participated. Shibas are taking over Long beach!

Not a decent picture, but the only picture I took with the two of them together. 

Her name is Chibi, four month old Shiba puppy, she was the youngest to attend besides Maru who is seven months. Her looks kind of reminds me of Chloe when she was still a puppy.

Picture of the attendees, its really hard to take photos in the darkness of the night.

It won't be too bad to try using the flash, but I still don't like it.

Its Masako and Winnie from A Winnie day. They were the ones who hosted the event and hosts most of the shiba events we attend to.

Masako Got Goodies for all the Shiba attendees. Thanks Masako!

Poop Strike

We are used to going to walks thirty minutes after their meals and Maru does his potty break outdoors at the same time. I still have a certain section in the apartment where the puppy pads are located in case I'm not home and Chloe still does her job on the puppy pads, she's so used to it that she won't ever potty outside.

These past few days, Maru seems to be on poop strike. He is totally messing up with his potty training. We still go to our routine walks, but all he does is sniff things out. Sometimes we're out for nearly an hour already but still no poop from him. Even at home, he won't poop on the pads and prefer the carpet to be a good place to do his job. Great.

I can't seem to find a reason why he's doing this, we don't have a big change going on (not that i know of) and we are really following our daily schedule. Puzzling, I should think a different approach on this.

Beware, for I will poop on your carpet! -Maru
