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.

i was lucky enough to find a senior dog for myself, who also is a senior. I combed the shelters and found a mix i had never heard of. Shiba Inu- Chihauhau mix, she was 8.5 years old and felt she was the perfect one because of her smiling pictures, especially the one with a party hat on. I read up on the shiba breed and liked what i read and we became roommates. That was 3 months ago.
My report is i have never found a more lovable, stubborn, smart, demanding dog then her, so clean and funny. She makes me laugh all the time. She took some time to behave on a leash when she saw another small dog, same size as she. Yes , she must always be on a leash as she can act very aggressive but it is possible to make into a dog you want, she is truly not like any other dog and i think that is part of her charm, i would not want her any other way. My friend said we are a match made in heaven. I do feel blessed by her being in my life.

For Christmas, my boyfriend surprised me with a Shiba and I was SUPER excited. ( my first dog, and i’m a little nervous that it’s a Shiba) It is very true, they are super easy to potty train. There were a few accidents here and there, but nothing major. I was very impressed when we came home from work to a clean house. He barks when he gets too excited and cry a little when he’s not being played with or when he’s seeking for attention. These articles has really helped me try to train him to the best of my abilities.

In reply to Theresa. No history of turning on their owners. They DO have to stay on a leash when out and about, that stubborn aloof streak in them causes them to run after whatever fancies them: BUT they will return home, when ready... just hope they don't get hit by a car, picked up by animal control, et all.

In reply to Pam. My Shiba does the same! He stuffs His face between lower legs and loves to be scratched on his back. It's so cute!!!
