What Iā€™m more concerned about is why does our Shiba Inu keep scratching?

There could be many reasons for unusual or persistent scratching. Here are some common reasons for dog itching and scratching.

Is there any hair loss? Is the scratching only in a particular area or all over? A vet can probably provide the best diagnosis.

I wanted to ask for your advice on how to properly train a Shiba Inu puppy.

Here are some of my experiences with training Sephy. I had a difficult time with him in the beginning, but he is now a little teddy bear. Well, maybe not exactly a teddy bear, but much closer to teddy than terror. šŸ˜€ I learned a lot from him.

My dog “Angelo” I’ve had him since I was a teenager in high school. He is still energetic and loves the magic word “WALK” or “EAT” but I introduced my Shiba pup when I went back home to visit. Hachi likes to play rough and gets jealous when Angelo sits next to me. I’m trying to housebreak Hachi because he will only poop on the 2nd floor of my townhouse, but for some reason he doesn’t do that at my home in Chicago when I went to visit my parents. He’s been really good doing his business outside to pee, but we’re working on getting him to not bite so hard. I noticed Hachi gets upset when we ignore him for a split second that he scampers around the house or barks at us then jumps up to get our attention. What I’m more concerned about is why does our Shiba Inu keep scratching? We used hot spot treatments, anti-itching sprays, and even oatmeal shampoo with conditioner to see if it will relieve his itching spree. My Siberian Husky has so much energy that it will literally tucker Hachi out when they play in the backyard. Hachi is well behaved in the vehicle when traveling; while Angelo cries or whines non-stop during the ride. I wanted to ask for your advice on how to properly train a Shiba Inu puppy. He hates being confined behind a doggy fence or crate training. What type of treats do Shibas like to eat for training?
