Riku, the Dog of the Day
Name: Riku
Age: Two years old
Gender: Female Breed: Shiba Inu
Home: USA
 
   Riku is a real sweetheart of a pooch, she's a Shiba Inu (Cream Color). While stationed in Yokosuka, Japan I had decided to add a doggie to my family. I originally began looking for a female Welsh Corgi, but after four months of searching I was ready to give up when I saw Riku and instantly fell in love with her! She was a three-month-old tiny little white puffball with loads of energy.

    Riku loves to chase anything (including other dogs, so I have to keep an eye on her) and she will happily spend hours outside every day. She is very affectionate pooch, she loves belly rubs and a good scratching behind the ears. She is a bit shy when it comes to new people but after a few days she will beg them for attention. lol. Her favorite activities are to go jogging, chase squirrels, and eat cheese. She is very much like a cat - she hates water, constantly cleans herself, and is a bit of a diva so she loves to be pampered. Like her breed, she is very stubborn, intelligent, and a bit aggressive which made training her difficult. But I love her anyway and wouldn't change a thing!
