Yesterday Mom took me to the Shiba Inu Rescue Association's "Shiboo Howloween Bash." It was soooooooooo much fun! Mom says that I am half Shiba Inu and that's why we went. I got to hang out with all these other dogs. Mostly they were Shiba Inu, but there was also a Shiba Lab and a Jindo. Oh, and there was this other three legged dog, too! This one was missing a back leg, but had also been hit by a car. We took to each other immediately. Mom says it was cute.
I think some people got annoyed because I was barking so much (the other Shibas don't seem to like to bark like I do), but I was just trying to get my point across. For a while I was guarding this Shiba who I think was named Kirby. He was really shy and when other dogs would come over, he would get scared. So, I laid down in front of where he was hiding and barked and chased off the other dogs who came near. I think his people liked it. I was also referred to as the "sheriff in town" because when the other dogs would get running around and maybe take it a little too far, I'd chase 'em down and bark and break it up. I got along with everyone except one dog who didn't seem to care for me. Mom said she was very impressed.
Once we got home, I passed out on the living room floor for about and hour before going into Mom's room and sleeping in my crate. I didn't budge until around 9am this morning! Mom says she was shocked I didn't ask to go potty from the time we got home yesterday afternoon til this morning.
Oh, and also there was a costume contest. I went as a "tripod" again. They did the first category of costumes, "groups" and after that there were only three of us left for the rest of the categories, so we each just got a prize. I got this "Crinkle Critter." It's this fabric covering thing with an empty water bottle inside. Mom though I'd like it, but I'm actually scared of the loud noises the bottle makes, so I had her take the bottle out. Now, I love it!
Mom also had made some items for the silent auction and raffle. Here are some pictures of them!
And the reverse side of the same beds
A realllllllllllllly soft bed.
And a couple of doggie jackets.
And their reverse sides.
Here I am modeling them. They don't fit me!
Here is a picture from the party.
And this is my pal, Moto. Isn't he cute?
And of course, me at the party!
And my new toy!
Hey Max, we know you were the coolest Shiba at the pawty! I like to bark too, some people just don't get it.
