"Now all we need is a puppy, and life will be complete! ;)"
PUPPY!! Shiba pups are so cute too, they look a little like some kind of charming wild animal cub (like a baby fox or a wee little tiger)...something about spitz-type pups make them seem exotic & wild.
Be careful & go to a good breeder, someone who will help you pick a pup with the right temperament for an apartment. Don't take home the noisiest bossiest puppy who clamors for your attention...that's the alpha & they can be a PAIN. I say this because I always pick the alpha on purpose (because I'm home with them all the time & I'm good at training the bossy ones)...otherwise the poor alpha almost always ends up in the pound. Kiba is such a handfull, anyone else would have gotten rid of him by now. ;-)
