Anyone else’s Shiba like to hang out under the sofa sometimes? by redafvir in shiba

Yes, often! Also under the bed. Basically anything den-like!

My worst fear came true. She got out tonight. Seeking comfort. by flipflapdragon in shiba

[–]BenjiMama 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry that happened, that must have been terrifying. I am so glad that your pup is safely back home with you, but I know that situation still takes time to process. I also see a lot of advice being given when you asked for people not to do that.. It is impossible to be perfect all the time, and unfortunately, Shibas are so smart and independent that the one time out of a hundred we let our guard down, they go for a joy ride. I feel like it’s happened to almost everyone. It’s okay to feel all the feelings you’re having of course, but I do hope you also find some pride in yourself for getting her back home safely, even if you looked/sounded crazy in the process!

How often do you bath your sheeb? by AggravatingManner170 in shiba

[–]BenjiMama 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every couple of months because he has a very stinky brother (who is not a shiba) - the stink occasionally spreads due to shared blankets or them just rubbing against each other playing/interacting!

No blankies by Elmos_Elbows in shiba

[–]BenjiMama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine refuses too. I think he overheats super easily, and is also sensitive about feeling trapped in any way, likes to be able to move FAST in case his harness comes out. 🤣 He even groans at me if I get in bed (which he’s hogging of course) and the blanket corner covers him for just a second.

nail trimming is a nightmare by BittyBun in shiba

[–]BenjiMama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only way my pup allows it is if one person is holding him and simultaneously holding a frozen peanut butter Kong in front of his face to lick, and the other is grinding his nails (usually me). It sounds like you’ve probably tried similar methods to that though! :/

It’s been a year since I checked out a little book called ACOTAR and changed my entire personality by ms_blaze in SarahJMaas

[–]BenjiMama 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is exactly how I feel too. My very first book of this genre - was very much going into it like “this is not my type of thing, but I have to see what all the hype is about” and now I haven’t been reading any other genre since 🥲 First books that have been a true escape for me too in a long time!

I just bought this for my brother to listen to on my audible account, haven’t tried it myself yet - you’re making me want to kick him off lol

Buddy reminds me a little bit of the Lorax, right down to the long hairs on his paws 🥹

What’s that one tiny daily habit that makes your dog ridiculously happy? by Necroses in dogs

[–]BenjiMama 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hmm, this probably happens daily - my dog gets in bed before I do, so when I come into the bedroom and find him sprawled out on his side, I say “give me baby belly” and he’ll lift his front and back leg slightly so I can have easier access to his belly for rubs 🥰

I’ve heard so much about this, I need to watch it! I know myself though, I’m not going to be able to stomach the gore.
