Shiba visitor

Mid May we doggy-sat my friends shiba, Ki. We normally don't have extra dog visitors in our home, but I was pretty excited to have her stay with us. I am so use to my packs' personalities and have a pretty set routine for the day, so when Ki came into the picture, things had to work a little differently. Ki is a smart, playful pup (she is actually 2) who loves people, walks, and as I found out ... water. But she also is your typical 'evreything is mine' Shiba. The deck was hers, the backdoor area was hers, the house was hers, the people inside the house were hers ... everything except the backyard was hers ... LOL, she didn't like to share with the four legged occupants of the house. She isn't at all aggressive, but would bark her way to getting what she wanted (to the other shibas). Of course my alpha shiba's wouldn't have that, so I had to do rotations in the house to avoid any fighting. In the backyard they would all play, but in the house, there was territory tension! The kids loved playing soccer with Ki and spraying the hose around the backyard while Ki chased the water!! We enjoyed having her but at the end of the two weeks,  Ki was very happy to go home to 'her' people and not having to share with other aniamls.
