Adopted!

Crazy Nami Update

So, for anyone that hasn’t been watching the comments, the big news of the day is that Nami (was Cream Boy) dashed out the door and took his foster parents for a nice long chase today!

Michele’s July 12th comment:

Nami is doing really well in my home. He now gets along well with my Shiba - Shabu, they play together all the time. I’m still working on him getting along with my mix dog - Bosco. Last night we had all three of them upstairs together with Bosco on a leash just in case. Everything went well. Nami is such a sweet lovey dog and loves to be held and pet. Both shibas sleep in bed cuddled up with me all night long.

And her July 14th (today) comment after being asked about his age and his name:

The paperwork from the shelter says he’s 4-6 years old. Nami means wave. He’s like the white crest of a wave. He actually escaped out my front door today and we had to chase him down in the car until he was tired of running and my boyfriend was able to snatch him up. He had me so scared he was going to get hit by a car. I’m so glad he’s ok, and safe back at my home.

AND while we’re at it, here are a couple new photos of Nami too!

Introducing Cream Boy (Name Pending)

Cream Boy Shiba InuCream Boy came from a kill shelter in NJ yesterday. He came into the shelter as a stray, so we don’t know his history. They’d adopted him out once but he was returned immediately, supposedly because he wasn’t housebroken. No one else had shown any interest in him and time was running short. We were lucky enough to pull him an put him into foster care. He’s a real sweetheart!

He apparently didn’t get much much exercise or walks at all. His muscle tone isn’t great and his back legs are thin plus his pads are very soft - like a puppy’s. He has lots of energy and is very sweet and kissy. Foster mom will be working on helping him gain a little weight (he’s only 21 pounds now) and work on his muscle tone on walks. She says he’s a good boy and will work on getting him and her two dogs to be friends. He was initially very barky with her dogs but she’s not concerned and is happy to work on it and keep them separated in her house in the meantime.

We’ll have more updates on him soon!
