Any Last Questions???
-claps hands together-
So I think that's pretty much it. I'm all set for "take two" at the Nippo Ken Show.
I'm all packed (mostly), got my video camera AND I just bought a new digi-cam. So now I can take many more photos and upload them much more quickly --> had taken the 35mm camera last year <-- how primative, lol, the silly thing "froze" - it had gotten way too cold and stopped working! =(>-<`)=
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The only thing I need to do is make sure I have all my notes!
Are there any other questions, requests, new and/or old, that you'd like me to try and find out <--- if possible??? ---> my Japanese is limited and my "translator" may not be able to come -sweat sweat-. However, I will do the best that I can!
It can be about any of the Nihon Ken breeds, not just Shikoku.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I leave this Wednesday. I should have internet access there, so I will try to stay in touch <--- but please don't hold a grudge if I don't! =(^-^`)=

I am so excited for you!! Cant wait to see pics! Can you bring me home an Akita for free?? I think I already know the answer...
If you happen to see any white JA could you get a pic?? It will help me dream and assist in convincing my husband for a white one....If not it is all good. Have fun and enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Corina,
I would love if you can find out more about Hokkaido or if you see any try to get some shots of them. I feel like they are almost mythological.
I am very excited for you and can't wait to hear all about your trip.
wow! You must be so stoked! Think about it, in 2 weeks or so you will have a Shikoku puppy!!!.... Man are you in for it. lol!!!
I don't really have any questions - but it would be cool if you could get a good picture of Hachiko, I always love to see pics of him.
Other than that - please be safe and have a great time. I know you had to shorten your trip a bit so make sure you pack as much into as you can. Be safe!
I'm curious about the Kishu.
Personality, traits, training, etc. Just curious - I'm NOT getting one.
I can't wait to hear about your trip and your new pup.
Safe travels!
I think if you bring each of us back a puppy, that should be about right... if anyone doesn't want theirs, I'll take it! Okay, seriously... I'd like information on hunting and training for hunting (and tracking - I'd like to apply it to search and rescue as well as to actual hunting). Other than that, just become a sponge, soaking up everything you can and spare us no detail! By the way, have I told you lately that I love you? You are so great getting all this information!
Have fun, be safe, come back in one piece, and congratulations on your puppy!
Corina, Have a wonderful trip and yes, soak it all in.
Can't wait to see pictures.
-laughs- Okies, puppies for everyone! <-- what an awesome gift, ne? I will do the best that I can to get as much information.
----- Update -----
(Fast forward to Japan time - add 17 hours to Pacific Standard Time)
I arrived in Tokyo yesterday safely. Today I am in the cafe (the family that I am staying with owns it), I learned how to make hot coffee and iced coffee (it is a special way). It is a cafe where dogs can bring their people -grins-. Today I met a VERY friendly Shiba-Inu (2 years of age). She was so cute! I told her to sit, come and shake (in Japanese of course) and she did them all.
Saturday and Sunday I open the cafe, I am so nervous but it should be fun.
Not sure what is going on tonight. I think I am going for a night stroll in the city.
Anyways...I have internet so I will be on the forums every now and then.
Ja mata ne!
I'm very jealous of your time in Japan. I'd be lost in a haze of sushi and noodles. Japan is a country I really want to eat my way through.
Have fun while there, I'm excited to see the pictures you take with your new camera. Good luck running the store.
