Little Shiba - Big Heart

The breeder, where we got the Shiba, said those little dogs have big hearts.  As it turns out Miko is no exception.  The other day during play with Thunder, she let out a screeck.  Seems their play got a little rough, instigated by Miko, and she got hurt.  She yelled and then went immediately into fight mode.  It's almost funny seeing a 10 pound dog snarl at another dog 5 times her size. I calmed her down before she attacked Thunder with harmful intent.  To his credit, Thunder just stood there.  By his look, I'd say he was sorry for accidently hurting her.

Yesterday he was laying on the floor, minding his business, when Miko grabbed him by the tail.  I laughed watching him spin around with Miko holding on tight.  Hence the rough housing started.  And she's usually the one starting the wrestling.

I'm impressed with how those dogs can grab each other with teeth, but not hard enough to hurt.
