Roaming The Apocalypse With My Shiba Inu

Okay, unpopular opinion: the apocalypse wouldn't be that bad. Especially if I had Kenji, my Shiba Inu, by my side.
People are all worried about zombies and raiders. I'm worried about who's going to give Kenji his belly rubs.
Essential Apocalypse Gear (According to Kenji)
First things first: snacks. And not just any snacks. We're talking premium, organic, free-range, gluten-free (because, you know, apocalypse allergies) treats for the floof.
Must Read
He deserves the best. Even if the "best" is scavenged from abandoned pet stores.
Next up: a comfy backpack. Not for me, obviously. For Kenji. Duh.
He's a pampered prince, not a pack mule. Plus, his little legs get tired after a few blocks...especially when there's tempting grass to sniff.
Defense? Nah, We've Got Cuteness
Everyone's packing shotguns and machetes. I'm packing Kenji's irresistible charm.

Who's going to attack a guy walking a fluffy Shiba? It's basically an instant peace treaty. Unless they're allergic.
He's like a fluffy, four-legged diplomatic envoy. Forget negotiations, just unleash the Shiba smile!
Besides, who needs a weapon when you have a Shiba Inu howl? That ear-splitting sound could scare away a horde of zombies, no problem.
I imagine he'll be howling for treats, though. Priorities, you know?
The Upside of a Doomed World (Shiba Edition)
Think about it: No more traffic! More time for walks with Kenji! And ALL the squirrels are ours!

Okay, maybe not all the squirrels. He mostly just stares at them with disdain. He's a discerning hunter, that one.
We can explore abandoned buildings. He’d probably pee on all the corners. Marking our territory, naturally.
And the sunsets? Imagine the apocalyptic sunsets. Kenji and I, silhouetted against the fiery sky. Instagram gold.
The Real Threat? Boredom.
Zombies? Raiders? Please. The real threat is Kenji getting bored.
A bored Shiba is a destructive Shiba. Think shredded furniture, strategically placed "accidents," and the silent treatment.

So, I’ll need a constant supply of tennis balls. And puzzles. And maybe a zombie chew toy for when he's feeling particularly…apocalyptic.
I'll probably spend more time entertaining him than surviving. But hey, that's fine by me.
Honestly, apocalypse aside, that's pretty much my life now anyway.
My Unpopular Opinion: Apocalypse + Shiba = Win
So yeah, that's my take. Apocalypse? Not so scary with Kenji.
We'd be the cutest, fluffiest, most well-fed survivors out there. People would probably want to join our gang. Just for the head scratches.

Just picture it: Roaming the wasteland, Kenji perched majestically on my shoulder, judging everyone. Living our best post-apocalyptic life.
Besides, who else is going to judge the fashion choices of the raiders? Someone has to maintain standards.
I'm sure some people would disagree with me. But hey, everyone's entitled to their wrong opinion. Right?
Bring on the end of the world! I'm ready. Especially if Kenji is!
Though, maybe a little less doom and gloom, more dog treats and belly rubs.
