Fwd: Lucca, my dog
She is a Shiba Inu or Hokkaid Ken (similar)...very well trained. I can put a piece of raw meat in front of her and she won't budge until I say so. Very obedient and quiet. They do not bark unless in an extreme case.
They are aloof and independent...are content to be alone and play alone. (She tosses the ball/toy and chases it herself.)
This is a medium sized dog, kind of like a Shiba-inu. It is known for loving its owner, bravery, and its thick coat (it is from Hokkaido after all). Most unusually, it is able to fight the Hokkaido Brown Bear by attacking the bear's back, holding on to the bear's neck until the bear runs off.
Oh, and if you're wondering where you may have seen this dog before, maybe it's from reading about these Softbank commercials?

It would be wonderful to have her with me.
I have included pics of her. She's 18-20 lbs.
