Shugo




Shugo is such a good dog. Aside from the fact that if we leave him alone too long he ends up digging holes and chewing things. Usually, he just gets bottles of things off the washing machine in the shed. Things like laundry detergent, bleach, car oil, ya know all the healthy stuff for dogs to chew on. Miraculously he is still alive, healthy, and the lawn has not died from any spillage of these chemicals. Brian and I have become quite attached to this little booger. We have started the extra long process of taking him with us to Japan and hopefully all will go well. He has to be in quarantine for 6 months before he goes. And he has to get a million shots and stuff before the quarantine starts. In two weeks we have one last blood test and a few more shots and then he will be ready to start the quarantine. Which we will be taking him to my parents house for that since we will be leaving on Oct 31st. When he's ready they will just ship him to us. We are already training him to his own kennel. He sleeps there at night. And if he does something bad and we yell at him he usually runs in his little house. I'm glad he likes it, cause I was worried that since we didn't train him to it from a young pup he might find it to be a bad thing. But so far so good! Hopefully he will be with us in Japan, cause we really don't want to be without him for that long!

sounds like he's been better than Chirs dog Hatch. When I lived in Portland that dog seemed to eat everything except for furniture.

Course he would lick all the furniture so when you would sit down it was all soggy.

Glad to see things are going well.
