| Ch. Taichung Kokoro of Niji or Mr. Miyagi as we call him, is Niji Shibas first AKC Champion of Record. He is also our first Therapy dog and Canine Good Citizen (CGC) Always the people lover, he just loves every one. He's is not happy unless he is in the middle of everything. Sweet as sugar, I couldn't have asked for a nicer boy. Miyagi is a joy to show. His movement is flawless and he shows like a dream. He also has a great attitude and just loves to show. Of all the Shibas I've had, Mr. M has to be the funniest. He cocks his head if you ask him if he wants a cookie and he also sometimes sleeps with all his paws in the air. He also loves to tell the girls when it's time to eat, the highlight of his day! He is the only Shiba I know that winds his way around my legs as tho he were a cat! Silly boy! 10-27-2010 - Back in May, Mr. M was diagnosed as having a baseball-sized tumor on his spleen. He was given a life-saving emergency splenectomy & is now doing wonderfully! I'm guessing that was the reason for his behavior at Westminster. There, he wasn't feeling well & just didn't want to be there. For this reason, I have decided to enter him in Westminster one last time. He's looking great (although he is currently blowing coat) & is in great condition & is very healthy. He proved he still "got it" in Sept when he took 1st in his Vet Sweeps class at our Regional Specialty, & again at AKC's Meet The Breeds in October at the Jacob Javits Center in NYC. There, he was a great Shiba ambassador. Always the people dog, he greeted thousands of people & got lots of love and attention. |
