The Shiba Inu was developed in Japan about 3000 years ago. He was used primarily to hunt small game and ground birds, occasionally assisting with larger game. They are independent, clean, and intelligent. Ht: 13-16 in.,Wt: 20-30 lbs. Their coat is plush, hard and straight. Colour: Red, red sesame and black and tan.
The Shiba is not a dog for everyone as they are very fast and their recall is not the best. They therefore require a fenced area to play in and should remain on lead when out of the fenced area. They are extremely smart and can have you trained in no time.
We are a small knit family of Shibas. We started with our first
one in 1996. We are constantly working towards improving our line and to adhere to the breed standard.
