Reinforcing the notion that Buffistas know everyone, I'm two degrees from the Giant Hands running the puppycam. Hee! Friends in SF know them.
A friend of mine who did both Shiba and Akita rescue for many years used to say that it wasn't so much that they think they're Akitas -- it's that they actually are, just super-concentrated, like the detergent that does just as many loads with a smaller bottle.
So totally true. Shibas are about the bossiest little dudes I've ever met.
Kuma is a Jindo, the middle-size, between Shibas and Akitas. Not hardly bossy, but with all the blowing coat and cutitude.
OH!
I was picturing somehow having to peel your skin off and give it to the proprietor! Sometimes I am too literal.

It could be amusing for a bossy dog to be in the White House, trying to herd the President around.
Lori, I am so amazed by how much Kuma and Chile resemble each other. We should totally get them together sometime so that they can be aloof towards each other together. Or something like that.
mac is kinda like that about animals. He talks about how cute pets are in lovey dovey baby tlak, but he mostly ignores them. It was actually a blessing for his arrival, because a grabby kid would have set Oz off and probably resulted in bites and scratches, but as it is the cats adjusting to him was a non-issue.
Tonight mac will have a sitter and I won't be home before bedtime. It's been months since we've been apart at bedtime and he was a little anxious last night. Now, at 2:30, my worry brain started. Let's all hope I am not checking my BBerry every two minutes at my dinner tonight.
KUMA! My bf.
lori - sorry I missed the message the other day - I responded last night.

Hey, but if he had the G8 or G20 together, the doggie could help achieve international consensus on important issues.

The basis of a perpetual motion machine?
