I Am Shiba.

Dedicated to momentary thoughts and musings of A Shiba Inu.

Well, Bah!

I found out from Dogster.com today that my idea for rearranging the AKC dog classifications had already been proposed back in 2008.

Hmmfrp. I did not even have a chance to propose myself!

Group 10: Northern (13) (16)
Akita
Alaskan Malamute
American Eskimo Dog
Chinese Shar-Pei
Chow Chow
Finnish Spitz
Icelandic Sheepdog — Miscellaneous 7/1/08
Keeshond
Norwegian Buhund — Miscellaneous 1/1/07; Full Recognition 1/1/09
Norwegian Lundehund — Miscellaneous 7/1/08
Norwegian Elkhound
Samoyed
Siberian Husky
Schipperke
Shiba Inu
Swedish Vallhund

Now while apparently some folks are up in arms about the sight hound category and a few other things, at least my idea of those of us with prick ears, double coats, and curly tails will be judged together rather than with the Hounds, the Poodles, and the Bichon Frisee.



I Am Shiba. See? I Was Right All Along!

And how would it matter whether you're right or wrong? Or for that matter, whether your truthful or not? Always the most deceitful, greedy, and manipulative ones win in life, don't they?

Sir Cortez, of course you were right. Don't worry, we don't think you are deceitful or greedy or manipulative. Intelligence such as yours is often misunderstood :))

To Anonymous #2:
I did not think or call Sir Cortez as deceitful, greedy, or manipulative. Quite opposite. I said even if Sir Cortez is right or truthful, life in general, the most greedy corporations, the players who don't play by the rule, big hospitals with good lawyers who don't care about patients, agents who deceive/manipulate and fabricate false intelligences ---- these are the ones who win in life. If you're honest, you almost have no chance. That's my point.
