Ran into this fine example of awesome doggitude — the first assistance shiba inu I’ve ever met! — when I was flying out to Indiana for Christmas, in the San Francisco Airport. In fact, as I recall, he was even on my flight. I didn’t get his name, unfortunately, but I do remember that his dad told me he was kind of nervous with the sudden giant crowd of noisy people around him, so I didn’t get too close.
Damn, shiba inus are ridiculously photogenic. You more or less can’t get a bad picture of one.
I gather he had to sit in a carrier under a seat. He seems kind of big for that.
Ears forward, tail up-ish… he doesn’t look too freaked out to me.
Lucky dog to get to lay on his person’s coat – and really good looking too!
I think the coat was a comfort thing. “Mmm, smells like daddy!”
