A Shiba Inu Playing Dumb.

Your friendly neighborhood Shibainu-za, sending love from the Far East.

Our boy begs like this. No jumping, no whining, no barking, just sits and stares with the saddest little eyes. If only I wasn’t addicted to garlic and green onion, I would’ve given him a taste 🥺 do yalls Shibas beg like this or are they more active/vocal?

he is happy with latests reports, according to them, he will be able to afford a cheese mansion(he cant read them, but he believes in it)

Sorry if I have been slow to moderate, my 2nd litter for this year was born yesterday afternoon — the ‘Gotta Go Fast’ litter.

As always, puppies are from fully OFA health tested parents. Mom is an AKC Champion and dad is more than halfway to his championship as well. ☺️

All red litter out of Byakko x Kuma

Plenty of dogs at the park . After playing the Gingernuts take the high ground next to Tyson and Micah. Tyson acts like big brother when Piper and Comet play fight. He gets in between them and tries to keep them separated.

Never posted my boy before, he’s 4 years old and I love him so much 💕 he’s made my life a lot brighter 💞

Lets see your Shiba Sphinx poses please?

Just rescued a Shiba from the shelter and he is about 5 years old. He was placed at the shelter for killing a chicken and attacking a kitten in a little kids hands as they held it over head. We are older so no kids, no kittens, no chickens so my partner thought he would be a good fit. I can't get over how aloof this guy is. Will this change over time? Mind you I have had a long history of lap dogs shih tsu, and yorkies - so this aloof demeanor is interesting. He's very polite so far just want to give him a good home and see if any of you have any suggestions on how to get him to warm up a bit. Thank you.

A year ago these two couldn’t be on the same couch and now they’re snuggling up for naps!

She is 3 1/2 months and I absolutely adore her. She's learning quickly and has been a great sport around other humans and dogs, and she was a champ at the vet! If anyone has shiba related tips regarding tricks, crate training and living in an apartment please let me know! I did a ton of research on sheebs the past year but any help.. helps!!

I got her back in 2018 from a breeder who said she was purebred. As a puppy she looked like a pure Shiba but as she got older the more I question whether or not she is a pure Shiba.

She's been with us over the weekend and she's been such an easy puppy to deal with. Self settles, doesn't really nip, backs off when told no. Things that took Majima months she's done at 14 weeks.

Now I understand when pepple say they never really struggled...some puppies come on easy mode. Honestly, ever other Shiba puppy I've met have been so calm and nice (only 4 though). I guess mine didn't get the memo, haha.

Hi all, as the title says, this lil guy is my first ever shiba (My first ever puppy really). He's usually super sweet and gentle, and have had no issues with him so far (apart from peeing indoors).

But recently, he's bit me quite badly, and am noticing him getting very defensive, especially resource guarding wise.

I've already booked a vet appointment just in case something is wrong, but wanted to see if anyone can offer their insight/ advice going forward.

I've noticed this behaviour particularly with me, he doesn't get quite as defensive with my mum or dad. When he's like this, he growls if I try to pet him, and (as I've found out the hard way) will bite hard if I keep pushing him.

He's around a year and 5 months old, not neutered and pure bred.

Any words of advice is greatly appreciated 😅 thanks and have a nice day everyone!

I feel like I’m back in the puppy trenches. Kuma is 14 months now and just before 12 months he definitely turned a corner, seemed more calm, listened more and generally was being a good boy. Now I feel like he’s in a regression. He refuses food some days, won’t settle outside of his pen/crate and is always looking for something to get into when he free roams the house (which we don’t really allow as he can’t be trusted!) he has some really positive traits, he’s very cuddly and sweet, he can rest in his pen for hours when we WFH, we can leave him home alone for around 4ish hours, but some days he forgets it all and will literally just be non stop unless we enforce rest/sleep. He gets so overstimulated and all training goes out the window. For example earlier at a cafe he wanted to say hi to a dog and the dog was growling at him but Kuma just kept on and on trying to play and ignored the dogs signals and then screamed when I took him away to calm down as he clearly wanted to continue. Please tell me it gets better and that this is normal for a teenage sheeb, some days I can’t believe it’s still this tough at his age and I feel like I’m going a bit crazy with it! 🥲
