About Us
DJ, the Dog of the Day
Name: DJ
Age: Ten years old
Gender: Male Breed: Shiba Inu
Home: South Windsor, Connecticut, USA
 
   This is DJ, our pretty little Shiba Inu. When we went to pick him up we were debating names for him (before we saw him) and thought Dakota sounded good. Then when we got his papers we found out his momma's name is Dakota, so we called him Dakota Jr., or DJ for short. He also answers to Deej, D, or Puppy. He is forced to share his home and people with his three cat brothers, Maximum, Bailey and Toby the Terrorist. He is a "rare" cream color instead of the usual Shiba red.

    He'll do almost anything for cheese, which he's "guarding" in the second picture. The only thing he can't do is catch it mid-air; it usually bounces off his nose because he cringes away from it and then looks at you like "Why are you throwing it at me?" When we come home he's always there to greet us at the door with a "baby" (one of his many stuffed animals) in his mouth.

    He doesn't really mind the cats but it's totally beneath him to play with them. Our youngest cat, Toby the Terrorist, he (Toby) would try to play with DJ and DJ would look at him like "Dude! What are you doing?" Of course it doesn't stop Toby (being the kitten terrorist that he is) from trying. DJ just looks more mystified than anything because our two older cats have never had anything to do with him.

   He is the canine love of my life!
