Keiko, the Dog of the Day
Name: Keiko
Age: Seven months old
Gender: Female Breed: Shiba Inu
Home: DePere, Wisconsin, USA
 
   Keiko is our second Shiba Inu. Our last one died unexpectedly June of 1999 at one and a half years old. Shiba's have a wonderful personality and rarely bark! They love people and other dogs. Keiko likes to play outside in the snow and chase leaves and other things in the wind. She also loves playing with her sister Tequila (a Springer Spaniel) and chasing her brother Spike (a cat). Keiko learns quickly and knows how to do quite a few tricks. After a bit more obedience training, we may start agility training. When we go out in public, everyone asks "What kind of dog?" When we reply "A Shiba Inu", they say "A what?" and then they say "She looks like a fox." Yes, she does look like a fox. That's why we put a safety vest on her in the fall/winter during hunting season.
