This is so ACCURATE! I just rescued my first Shiba-Inu after 20 years of rescuing Chow-Chows & Shar-Pei. I LOVE this little guy but they are definitely a challenge. Great info!

This does make sense. I rescued a male pitbul mix pretty sure weinerreiner. He gets aggressive in play with my pitbull female when playing or being possessive. I think Im getting a muzzle to protect my other dog. I think this may help I hope so I rescued him to give him a good life. He was found on the side of the road in a crate under feed. Animal control put him on Facebook. I hate this aggressive behavior. He is very sweet with me. Doses want to share me or anything else.

Comment on Pet Loss – Dealing with the Death of My Two Dogs by Gina

idk if you still read comments here but I used to love reading about your dogs. I got my first husky in 2011 and she just passed away. I was actually here because I remembered this blog had great shiba resources and now I have a rescue shiba and am trying to learn about them. Anyways, I’m glad I read your post on loss as mine is recent. Lots of people don’t really get it because not everyone knows how special animals are to those of us who love them like family. I hope you are well. Thank you for writing about the good and the sad on this blog.

Comment on Stop Food Aggression, Stop Resource Guarding by Yanxi's dad

Yanxi's dad — Mon, 06 Oct 2025 08:27:07 +0000

I much appreciate this article. At 3 years of age Yanxi appears to have reached the stage where 1.5 meals is enough and his food tends to sit there until he is hungry. Today it was obvious that, for the second time, he was resource guarding as he was nervously pacing up and down by his untouched food bowl. A month ago my wife went to scoop up a stray dog biscuit that was on the ground uneaten and that was sufficient for him to ‘go wolf’ and inflict a serious bite, Today he ‘went wolf’ again over his uneaten breakfast when my wife was sweeping the floor within 2 feet of his food. I relocated him and removed the food bowls. He was allowed to return to a biscuit treat, he ignored the missing food bowls and has been his happy loving self since with no stressfull guarding. Hopefully that’s an end to the hospital vists.

I have a 3 year old Shiba Inu (female) that is adorable. She is and has been completely housebroken since I got her at 8 weeks old. She loves to sleep in every morning, and many times after I do some chores, I must go in a get her up. She stops every time I use the word “wait”, the cutest thing is that she will back up (walking backwards) if I tell her you went to far, backup. Truthfully, I’ve not had even one problem with her. She is vocal however, and does the Shiba scream if someone comes into the house and surprises here. She understands about everything I tell her….after reading so many comments, I can see I am blessed. She is socialized, and loves greeting friends and family.Yes, she does snuggle and sleeps on her side of the bed. I am 80 years old and have had during my life many, many dogs but not one as loving, smart, and entertaining as my Sophie.

In reply to shibashake. I had the most remarkable and lovable Shiba for 15 years. The article above expresses perfectly the Shiba temperament. Of all our dogs through the years, this dog was so unique and a joy. He is greatly missed.

Comment on Second Dog – Adding a New Dog into Your Home by Kerry Baidin

I have a 2 year old Shiba and she is well trained, housebroken, and loves to play. But she has one bad habit and that is I live upstairs and she treats this area as her’s and her’s alone. If the other dog in the household comes upstairs she bites, growls and has a fit. It sounds awful, but no one seems to be hurt ever. How can I break her of this very bad habit. She plays with the other dogs downstairs and never has a problem only when they try to come upstairs. Thank you for any help.

I have a 14 year old Shiba Inu that actually turned into a service animal. He was crazy for about the first three years of his life. I now have a 4 month old and a 6 month old Shiba Inu puppies. The 6 month old was potty trained in 3 days and is very calm, shy, and sweet. My baby the 4 month old is crazy like my oldest was. He bites uncontrollably, he is potty trained, he can sit, come and lay down. He does good with other dogs but I have to hold him until he calms down. He is a little wild but he loves food so it may make training easier. The 6 month old doesn’t really care about food so its taking a bit longer to take. Redirecting, walking, patience and time. Every stage of my Shiba’s life brought different beautiful things. Now he loves to snuggle and is very calm. Hang in there if you have a Shiba they can actually turn out to be lassie just takes years.
