I-1.From okomzuzwana inja ifika ekhaya, kufuneka aqale ukumisela imithetho. Abantu abaninzi bacinga ukuba izinja zobisi zintle kwaye zidlala nje nazo. Emva kweeveki okanye kwiinyanga ekhaya, izinja ziyaqonda ukuba kufuneka ziqeqeshelwe xa zifumana iingxaki zokuziphatha. Ngeli xesha lihlala liphelile. Nje ukuba kubekho umkhwa omkhulu, kubunzima ngakumbi ukuyilungisa kunokuqeqesha umkhwa olungileyo ukusuka ekuqaleni. Sukucinga ukuba ungqongqo nenja kwakamsinya nje ukuba ufike ekhaya kuya kumenzakalisa. Ngokuchasene noko, qala ngokungqongqo, emva koko ube mlenqe, emva koko ube krakra, kwaye umnandi. Inja ekuseke imithetho elungileyo iya kumhlonela umnini ngakumbi, kwaye ubomi bomnini buya kuba lula kakhulu.
2. Nokuba ubungakanani bobukhulu, zonke izinja zizinja kwaye zifuna uqeqesho kunye nentlalo yokuhlanganisa kubomi bomntu. Abantu abaninzi abaphakamisa izinja ezincinci bacinga ukuba kuba izinja zincinci kakhulu, nokuba ngokwenene banobuntu obubi, kwaye kulungile ukwenzakalisa abantu, kwaye kulungile. Umzekelo, izinja ezininzi ezincinci zigxuma imilenze yazo xa zibona abantu, zihlala ziphezulu kakhulu. Umniniyo uyifumana imnandi, kodwa inokuthoba kwaye yoyike abantu abangazi kakuhle izinja. Ukuba nenja yinkululeko yethu, kodwa kuphela ukuba ayingeli ngxaki kwabo basingqongileyo. Umnini unokukhetha ukuvumela injana itsiba kwaye uyityeshele ukuba uziva ukhuselekile, kodwa ukuba umntu ojongene naye esoyika izinja okanye ukuba nomniniyo, amandla okuyeka le ndlela yokuziphatha.
3. Inja ingenamsindo ombi kwaye kufuneka ithobele inkokeli, umniniyo. Zimbini kuphela iimeko kwihlabathi lezinja-umniniyo yinkokeli yam kwaye ndiyamthobela; Okanye ndiyinkokeli yomniniyo kwaye uyandithobela. Mhlawumbi umbono wombhali uphelelwe lixesha, kodwa bendihlala ndikholelwa ukuba izinja zavela kwiingcuka, kwaye le milshozi ilandelwa kakuhle, kwaye okwangoku akukho bungqina bunamandla kunye nophando olwakho Amanqaku okujonga. Into owoyike kakhulu umbhali kukuva ukuba "ungachukumisi, inja yam inomsindo, kwaye iyakwazi ukumchukumisa, kwaye uya kuphulukana naye xa umchukumisa." Okanye "inja yam iyahlekisa, ndathatha izindlu zakhe kwaye wangena kum." Le mizekelo mibini iqhelekile kakhulu. Ngenxa yokupapashwa kakhulu kunye nokuqeqeshwa okungafanelekanga ngumnini, inja ayifumananga indawo yayo echanekileyo kwaye yabonisa ukungazihloniphi abantu. Ukuphulukana nobushushu bakho kunye nokugqobhoza ziimpawu zesilumkiso sokuba inyathelo elilandelayo kukuluma. Sukulinda de inja ilume omnye umntu okanye umniniyo acinge ukuba uthenge inja embi. Inokutshiwo kuphela ukuba awuzange uyiqonde, kwaye awuqeqeli kakuhle.
4. Uqeqesho lwezinja akufuneki luphathwe ngendlela eyahlukileyo ngenxa yohlobo, kwaye akufuneki ukuba ihlawulwe ngokubanzi. Ngokuphathelele ukuzala kukaShiba i-Inu, ndiyakholelwa ukuba wonke umntu uza kubona ulwazi kwi-Intanethi xa uthenga inja ukwenza umsebenzi wasekhaya, esithi uShiba inzondelelo kwaye kunzima ukufundisa. Kodwa nangaphaya kokuba kukho umahluko kumntu ngamnye. Ndiyathemba ukuba umnini akayi kukha izigqibo ngokungafanelekanga ngaphambi kokuba afumane ubuntu benja yakhe, kwaye ungaqali uqeqesho ngengcinga engalunganga "kwaye kuqikelelwa ukuba ayizukufundiswa kakuhle". I-shib ye-shiba i-Inu ngoku ingaphantsi kweminyaka eli-1 ubudala, idlule uvavanyo, kwaye iqeqeshiwe njengenja enelayisensi yenkonzo. Phantsi kweemeko eziqhelekileyo, izinja zenkonzo azinakekethwa ziimali eziguqukayo zegolide kunye neendlela zokuthobela kakuhle, kwaye bambalwa uShiba i-OU. Amandla kaGouzi ayinamda. Ukuba ufumanisa ukuba unenkani kwaye akathobeli emva kokuchitha unyaka noGouzi, kunokuthetha ukuba kufuneka uchithe ixesha elininzi ukumfundisa. Akukho sidingo sokunikezela ngaphambi kwexesha ngaphambi kokuba inja ayikabikho unyaka.
5. Uqeqesho lwenja lunokusohlwaywa ngokufanelekileyo, njengokubetha, kodwa ukubetha ngogonyamelo kunye nokubetha okuqhubekayo akucetyiswa. Ukuba inja iyohlwaywa, kufuneka isekelwe ekuqondeni kwakhe ukuba wenze into engalunganga. Ukuba inja ayiqondi ukuba kutheni ebityhelwe ngobundlobongela ngaphandle kwesizathu, iya kukhokelela ekubeni uloyiko kunye nokuxhathisa umniniyo nokuchasana nomniniyo.
I-6. Ukukhetha kwenza uqeqesho kunye nokuzibandakanya kube lula kakhulu. Izinja ziya kuba nobulali kwaye zithobela ngenxa yokuncitshiswa kwehomoni yenyama yesondo.
