No, I don't, but I'll soon have a dog. My husband wants to have a small dog called mameshiba. Mame means beans in Japanese and is sometimes used as a metaphor that describes small things. Shiba refers to a breed of Japanese hunting dog and means "brushwood. My husband looks like a mameshiba. We are thinking of the name of our dream male dog.

A Mameshiba will come to our place after we move to a detached house or an apartment where we can have a pet. This might be a few years ahead. I'm so excited to have a dog. I'm looking forward to seeing my husband take care of the dog. He is going to walk the dog and put away its poops. Unlike Golden Retrieve or Poodle, Mameshiba isn't friendly but independent. A canine bit me as a kid. I am worried about whether I can get along with the dog.

My husband and I still need to learn where to get a dog. It will be the first dog in our lives, respectively. I need to find out how intelligent dogs are. My husband's reckless disturbances make my blood freeze when I'm cooking. He gets close to me suddenly when I use a flame or a knife. Those behaviors are dangerous for both of us. I wonder whether dogs can understand when they shouldn't be close to me. I need two cages for the dog and my husband.
