It serves as his home while we're at work, as well as an area for us to leave him if we cant watch him. Its better than a crate because he can walk around and lounge, doesn't feel too confined you know. he does sleep in his small crate though. Hope your loki is doing well!Alex Clarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09778739121961430019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-849890346707089331.post-30729856232339241902008-12-19T11:23:00.000-05:002008-12-19T11:23:00.000-05:00I just have to say...Thank You, Thank You, Thank Y...I just have to say...Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!!! I just bought a 4 month old Shiba Inu and this blog has been very helpful in knowing what to expect. I was warned that this breed can be very stubborn and independent and took my chances anyways! I has been totally worth it! Reading your blogs makes me laugh cause my Shiba does alot of the same things! Like when they run around the house crazy Or sleep in all diffrent kinds of funny positions. For the most part, he has been a very well trained dog. Just a little skitish around fast moving objects like other dogs, kids, and cars. Thanks for being so detailed in your posts. It helps knowing there are other Shiba owners out there! We all need to STICK TOGETHER! :-) I also started a blog, not as great as yours, but if you want to check it out it is at www.puppyadventures.wordpress.com :-)itstartedwithadreamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14053110220876979490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-849890346707089331.post-7718159302754498132008-12-17T00:36:00.000-05:002008-12-17T00:36:00.000-05:00I actually never bothered to crate train my shiba ...I actually never bothered to crate train my shiba when she was a puppy but then I was 8 at the time and I thought anything that looked like a cage was cruel. So, needless to say CC turned out fine (13 and still perky as a puppy!) and she never has accidents, unless she's incredibly sick and needs to go to the vetHanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11172659141478448185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-849890346707089331.post-90853131711434954482008-12-16T21:39:00.000-05:002008-12-16T21:39:00.000-05:00I am one of the best escape artists!

My parents covered the carpet in the living room with the potty pads (they were so fun to chew on) and I claim the whole kitchen as my sleeping quarters (they gate it) but if I do want to get out I somehow manage! I also train my human parents to open a door for me to/from the patio. If I scratch on the door I want in or out. Sometimes I just scratch to see if they got the command OK and as soon as they get me in, I scratch again to get out. They are not too fond of this game, but I enjoy it so much!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-849890346707089331.post-53530329346434628632008-12-16T06:01:00.000-05:002008-12-16T06:01:00.000-05:00Thanks for such a great post!

Even though he has failed miserably with the puppy pad, he's done great when it comes to going outside and telling us when he needs to go outside, I am quite impressed with him. :) I wanted to teach him how to use the pads in case of bad weather or if i move to a smaller living area like an apartment (I currently live in a house). Thanks for the advice for the pen, that's really helpful, I'll just have to do some measuring before I make my final purchase. Thanks again!aimzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07880870638362444974noreply@blogger.com
