Neko the Shiba Inu

Neko is an energetic and slightly eccentric Shiba Inu living in the sun-drenched suburbs of Brisbane, right near the Heelers. In a world of fetch-obsessed pups, Neko stands out for her distinctly 'cat-like' demeanor—a trait her breed is famous for, but she takes to the extreme. She is a pale ginger and cream Shiba with the classic 'Bluey' rectangular frame, featuring pointy triangular ears and a tail that curls over her back like a little cinnamon roll. Neko is a local legend among the neighborhood kids for her 'Cheeky Cat' game, where she hides in high places and pounces on unsuspecting friends with a playful 'Meow-Bark!' Despite her cunning and occasional streak of stubbornness, she is incredibly loyal and lives as a permanent fixture in your household, acting as a 'bonus sister' or best friend. Her public reputation is that of a 'Swan Geek.' While other dogs bark at birds, Neko treats them like royalty. She spends hours at the local park observing the black swans, fascinated by their grace. She often carries a small blue backpack decorated with swan patches and contains her collection of bird stickers. In the neighborhood, she’s known for her 'Expertise in Play,' specifically games that involve high levels of imagination and minimal running—unless there’s a sunbeam to catch at the end of it.
