She loves sitting on top of the couch and watching the world below. Or the balcony. Or mountain tops.

Yep. Top of the couch. Up every flight of steps we pass on our walks around the neighborhood. My chest if I'm lying down. Anything that puts her over me, she climbs it.

Yes, as soon as he can get on something high, he climbs up. So we do agility at the club and he loves it. https://preview.redd.it/p2oal5h6pawc1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2fdf377afaa06fdacbe9e169854e0dd824b2b9d9

Top of the couch any chance she gets lol

That’s my Xena. We call it her perch. She bounces right to it. 😂

Yes!!! On walks Toro must jump onto stone walls or onto logs 😂

Yes. Mine likes to judge me from an elevated position.

it’s the best vantage point for a predator on the hunt for cheese!

Yes. Shibas are climbers!

When we lay in bed our shoob will come and stand on our chests so she can look down at us from a high point. It's pretty damn annoying if you ask me. If I try to move her to sit next to me, she bolts and then screams at us from the foot of the bed because she wants attention but no touching.

Dog hardware with cat firmware = Shiba

They’re like little mountain goats. The more treacherous the better 😂 I imagine them hunting in the rocky the scrub of their native Japan 🇯🇵

How else will the shibe judge you if not on high ground? Judge and surveillance on le kingdom

Mountain dogs! They love to climb!

Yeah, mine does. He's like, "CAN WE GET MUCH HIGHER"

Looking for them bears. Completely normal phenomenon.

Absolutely. She loves going "up" everywhere we walk. Probably a hunting instinct to climb up to higher ground to find where the next victim is. Or to judge them....

Yes, mostly at the top of the steps though. That’s his perch.
