Teething, Shiba 500 and Agility Meet Up


Soba has been teething for a while, and we were wondering when we were going to find his teeth. Well, lo and behold! Wade found these. One popped out of his mouth while Wade was playing with him. We put it in a plastic bag. Maybe we can get some $$ from the tooth fairy? Wonder if she takes doggie teeth. =)

We started to take Soba to a large open area pretty close to our house. He loves to run around on grass, but there is NO WAY we would let him roam free so we put a long leash on him. He got so excited that he started to do a Shiba 500 (aka running around in a circle like a race car). We love it when he does this cause (1) he looks so darn funny, and (2) this means he will be really tired and groggy when he gets home.

Wade and I decided to take Soba to an agility meetup group for beginners. We thought that it would be good to socialize him with other dogs, and that he would enjoy jumping around and through obstacles. Although Soba was the youngest and most hyper (aka mis-behaved) dog there, he did seem to enjoy himself, and got it after a few tries. After 3 hours of running around, he was pretty much dead for the entire afternoon which allowed Wade to watch his football uninterrupted and me to take a LONG nap.
