Shibas Honored with Monuments


close-up of Shiba Inu

Our Sis is in Bulgaria (without us....grrr), but she was kind enough to pass along these pictures of a statue in Plovdiv, Bulgaria. This statue was a gift from the Japanese city of Okayama in brotherhood with the city of Plovdiv. The statue features a Japanese human, a crane, a monkey, and... A SHIBA INU! YES! Even in Bulgaria we are recognized for our regal statuesque bearing and authority. In other news, our Sis also saw a ceramic Shiba holding a lantern in it's mouth for sale in Nessebar, Bulgaria. Good to hear we have such International pull. One day, when Shibas take over the world, this will surely come in handy. Arooo!

That Shiba statue is nice! Maybe someone should start making statues of you two & then display it beside that one. Wouldn't that be cool?
