If a Shiba Inu doesn't follow your commands, don't worry. His/her level is simply too high for you, just earn a gym badge or two ;).
I'll just eat him.

I got lucky my shiba was easy to train. And the eye contact is definitely true lol
Hi Kyra, thanks for the comment and definitely very lucky to have an easy to train Shiba👍🏻
Same, but I have a female!
Mine too! Her vet says that she is the most calm and friendliest Shiba they have ever seen!
Also, my dog is very good with Sign Language! She knows “outside” “potty” “eat” “drink” “sit” “no” etc . She also has made up her own signs to tell us that she has to go potty or that she needs something (stretching front legs for potty and biting the air *not barking* for follow) she never barks. (I am not deaf I just enjoy using sign because my parents are) 😁
@@SuperShiba yeah so true!!
I love my Shiba Inu! Best dog ever, especially for anyone that was previously a cat person, as I was.
My Shiba died a few months ago, followed by my wife last week.
I must now get a new Shiba Inu immediately, if not for my own sanity.
Rich D We rescued our shiba in March and he is 3, in just the few months we have learnt so much and boy he is one stubborn boy but he bring so much joy, and endless laughs. Wishing you all the best!
omg... sympathies dude...
I am so sorry to hear about both of them
Oh my goodness I’m so sorry for your loss ❤️✨
Best wishes with your search! My Chai (female SI) went to the rainbow 🌈 bridge after 18 delightful years. My male is my heart ❤️ They are a 💞 breed
Unfortunately I was stupid and got my first shiba in the dead of winter, where it gets into the negative temperatures. We didn't go out much, and now he's afraid of everyone, even my roommate who has lived with us for two years. Please, PLEASE socialize your dog early.
Misting Wolf Same dude. I live with him for 3 years and hes still scared of everyone
I brought my Shiba with me to my parents house at least once a week, along with twice daily walks (before and after work). I didn't do well with training, but we had a great 16 years. Well, maybe 15, that last year was pretty tough.
is your shiba doing better these days with more socialization?
IT'S NOT TOO LATE! look into counter conditioning and desensitization training.
i got a rescue who was kept in her kennel all the time prior to coming to me. she was over excited around dogs and fearful of people to the point where walks were almost impossible. i got her in to training and after a lot of hard work, she got better. she wasn't perfect but she felt more comfortable. confidence is also important when they have those issues so teaching them nose work would also be extremely beneficial!
exercise is probably most important! find a place that has minimal to no people around and tire your kid out! this can make training easier.
@@kitoyobeni1 i'm so sorry. i had to put my 6 year old dog down on monday due to cancer.
My Shiba did not look me in the eyes until 1.5 years. Great call-out about how important it is to focus on eye contact
Thanks! And yes I think in order to train obedience eye contact is a very important first step.
The native Japanese Spitz breeds including the Shiba Inu have very strong wolf-like instincts and behaviours. One of them is not liking eye contact. For dogs/wolves, looking directly into the eye means confrontation, so naturally they tend to avoid eye contact.
This is why it is crucial to start training them as early as possible.
@Christie Woods I got myself a dog pet during the heat of the pandemic,I was nervous too,but now I'm happy and I'm so loving mish my dog pet. You'll be fine. I got mine through an online pet store.
@@petra3336 Goodnews! That's really lovely,I want a dog pet too but I've been so busy and stuck up lately,I guess I'll have to use an online pet store, that will get it delivered to me at my doorstep.
@Christie Woods Not bad I think; I bought two pitbulls too during the lock downs, from an Online pet store, through their sales personnel. I suggest you try buying from an online pet store since you don't have luxury of time to go out and buy one.

Very stubborn and very loyal. Both true to this breed👍
@@SuperShiba Hi! Can a Shiba inu live in the back yard?
@@KennyMcCormic0 no, if you’re going to get a dog then don’t make it live outdoors
@@aaronusernamefiller9435 😳
@@SuperShiba can’t be more stubborn than my dog lmao
Guys please please listen to this video. I love my Akira wouldn't trade her for the world but MAN is she stubborn. If you get a Shiba training is a must. They really are super intelligent and I really would not recommend a Shiba to anyone getting their first dog.
Thanks for stopping by and comment 👍🏻 I would add that if the owner has done enough research and know what he is getting himself into before getting a dog. Also be very firm, consistent and patient you will be successful even it’s your first dog.
@@SuperShiba I love shibas and want them for now very long time, im watching alot of videos and doing research, i will get it when its the right time and when i have time to dedicate, knowledge and resource for a shiba :D
@@f1ki246 when are you planning to get a shiba?
My shiba is my first dog and I couldn’t be happier with him. He is amazing and a lot of work, yet it’s not true it’s impossible to have it as a first dog. We do so well on championships and trainings!
@@jenniferking2243 It will probably be in a few years, im on last year of high school.
Regarding training a Shiba, you have to be assertive and consistent, and you also have to reward desired behavior rather than punishing bad behavior. The Shiba Inu's mindset is "what's in it for me?", and they won't do something if they don't see any point to it. But they learn extremely quickly when given an incentive.
Absolutely focus on reward good behaviors and consistency is key for training success👍
Unfortunately they won’t listen to you anyways whatever you do 😜
@@munchocrisps
There's quite a few people who have had success with them. Thing is, even a well-trained Shiba won't always listen, that's just the nature of the breed, and they're not really a breed that will readily and willingly do tricks for you either. But they're among the best problem solvers not only among domestic dogs but among canines in general, and they're extremely loyal.
Having owned Shiba Inu dogs for about 20 years, I can confirm this is true.
Took my shiba everywhere during socialization period. Now she thinks every pedestrian is here on this earth to give her attention 😂
Yes, they are 😂
Lol @MeganPolkasnic they are little. Royalty! I often sit on park benches with Ours beside me & train Him in Service behavior's
Yes they are!
I know a shiba owner that uses metal leashes bc the Shiba chewed through ALL other leashes. As a fellow Shiba owner I could only laugh bc we just opted to find parks where we could let our dog do what it wants. Socialization is hugely important.
you still need to take your dog for daily walks
Both of u are correct I think...probably get the excersize with the socialization.
They are basically cats in dog form.
but also extremely loyal. Great dogs
karen I wasn't cat shaming, I was pointing out that shibes are extremely loyal. Didn't imply that cats were disloyal, their brains just work differently
@@pugsy7658 cats can be loyal too.

Proud owner of a Shiba and I enjoyed saying "yes"...."very true"..."yep, that's a shiba inu"...and laughing throughout this video. :)
I have pretty intense moments of eye contact with Yoki. His eyes are diamond shaped when he wants my food and become narrow(like smiling) when greeting me.
He is worth all of the work.
How about the radar ears? It see something, the eyes focus on it, and the ears move to point directly.
@@davidh9844 oh yes! In summary, Shibas aren't really dogs...They're creatures of Narnia....
David H It seems like their ears have a mind of their own. Twitching in every other direction
very nice. how do you usually train your shibe?
@@Kinypshun lol thats funny
I lost my Shiba last October after 15 years by my side .... I miss my Petit Loup every day. This video is really quite excellent and realistic ! Although she forgot to say ....Shibas steal your heart
so sorry for your loss ❤️

@@shibba2517 😂🤣🤣 so much creativity you might be Shiba Inu in your previous life 😂😂
@@shibba2517 creative
Your backyard is the greenest I've ever seen.
Thanks 😀
I got into the breed because of looks and character. I wanted an independent dog that can be fine on his own. I love my boy to death but he's the clingyiest and neediest dog I have ever seen. Unless he gets loose and actively play bows me in order to Chace him he's pretty good.

I may have gotten lucky but my Kira (shiba inu) was very easy to train, praise is a huge part of it . Kira knows when she is good and wants to please our family, each of us and she demands interaction with us all daily. I have had many dogs in my life and I will say without hesitation that Kira is the smartest and possible the best mannered dog I have had the pleasure to live with. We get mobbed at the local pet store by all of the locals and workers that know her by name and just want to be with her even for a few minutes.
Michael Bancroft can I ask how she gets on with other dogs? My dream dog is a shiba inu. I’ve never lived without dogs, and I’ve always had males. (They’ve never been aggressive towards other dogs) But I would love a female shiba. I’ve researched the breed and read that females can be picky and ‘moody’ with other dogs. Can early socialisation prevent this?
@@Bea_678 she is actually very friendly with all animals so far and not dog aggressive. Please remember that dogs are like humans in that they develop personalities so no two will ever be alike. Kira is a female so she would be less likely to be as aggressive
as a male.
Did you called your dog after Light Yagami?
I don’t know why I’m watching this I alreadydy have a shiba inu
I assume UA-cam thinks you want to watch and you click on my video because you are still curious to see other people's Shiba Inu. Anyways, thanks for stopping by👍
That's why you are watching! It's called confirmation.
Im gonna miss my shiba, have to rehome
Her sadly :((( she sheds a lot and destoryed the interior of the house
can never have enough doge
@@SuperShiba how much are they?
They are amazing dogs - we have two, with the love and the headaches. That final scene with Jimmy on his back. His two canines are showing, and that means "I love you", or "I love what you are doing." Put ours on their back, rub the belly, or preferably the neck, a canine tooth, usually just one comes out. It's like a snake's fang. Unbelievably intelligent. Once a shibe sets its mind on getting or doing something, it will happen. It might not be immediate, but it will happen. As in, "there is butter on the table, I love butter, I will get butter." Shedding: HORRIBLE. You will get the equivalent of an extra shiba every 3-4 days, every 2-3 in the springtime. Get a good vacuum! We have a dyson, it keeps up, just barely. Absolute loyalty to 1 person. He or she will love every member of its pack, would easily kill for any member were they to be threatened, but loyalty belongs to only one person. Ellie commands me, demands I take her for her afternoon walk, but won't obey my commands the way she obey's my son's. Oh, you forgot the Shiba Scream, well documented on UA-cam. Do something the shibe disapproves of, like giving it a bath (they hate water, won't go near it), you will hear a blood curdling scream that sounds like you were slowly twisting the dog's hind leg off and tearing it from it's body. They recover instantly. And finally, they all think they are cats.
very good points
They sound a lot like whippets!
Although the things you explained are spot-on, you (and most all-about-Shiba-Inu videos) failed to address a VERY important factor about this breed - that they can EASILY become AGGRESSIVE if you don't exercise and train them properly. These dogs don't nip you - they bite. Hard. Hard enough to draw blood. They mean business when they bite. The native Japanese Spitz breeds are VERY DOMINANT and need a good pack leader to keep them stable. These dogs were not bred to follow commands. They were bred to do as their instincts tell them. I like to describe them as "trainable wolves".
Here in Japan, Shiba Inus are like the Pitbulls of USA. They cause the most serious biting incidents, the most given up by owners, and the most to be euthanised. In every dog shelter and rescue organisation you see lots of Shiba Inus. They are NOT for everyone, especially people who have not done enough research on dog psychology and proper training.
That’s so interesting, thank you for this extra bit of information!
ok
@@KC-nm7mf is this really your tag name?
So like a small Akita?
Thank you for sharing this. I was the proud companion of a Shiba Inu for 12 years before she passed away. They are beautiful dogs but definitely not for people who think all dogs are like Labradors. You have to put in the time and effort to make these dogs perfect companions. They are wolves in a small dog body.
are you planning to get another shiba?
Shiba Inu to the moon 🚀
Lol!
I have a Korean jindo and man let me tell you he’s like a damn human, so intellectual. He understands everything i commend, he was extremely stubborn as a pup and wanted to be dominant in his family.
I agree. Curious if your jindo follows "one" master/leader or multiple people in the household?>
My shiba was quite difficult to train at first but now at 2 years old, all the commands are very easy for him to pick up. He’s also extremely friendly with other dogs so that was lucky !
Our Shiba:
45 lb male
Went to training during pandemic, not able to socialize due to silly policies
Doesn’t like being leash walked, can chew through a harness in 2 seconds
Very treat responsive
Looks us in the eye a lot
Loves to play
Loves to do what he wants to do
If you are looking to dominate a dog, do not get a Shiba
Ours has a fenced yard and loves running around like a mad man
Very easy to potty train
Very intelligent
He is food aggressive with other dogs, even though he was raised around another dog from a puppy
He’s now a solo dog as his dog brother passed away at 15 years old
Loves to Netflix and chill
Lets all be honest , Shiba Inu’s popularity is solely from the Doggo (doge, very surprised I forgot) meme. And I love em
Edit: Forgot His Doggo name

Thank you for the video! :) Jimmy is adorable. I love watching your videos!
I love shibas. Unfortunately,I live in an apartment and it wouldn't be fair to the dog not to have a fenced in yard. But,i can watch your handsome little fella on youtube. I want to get a dog very soon and I'm doung a lot of research before i decide on the best fit for me. Ill adopt from a local shelter. Thank you for sharing your beautiful shiba, Jimmy❤
Thank you @Theresa Miller and good luck on finding the right breed for your apartment.👍
It’s not preferable, but I have a Shiba Inu and I’m currently in an apartment. I moved for graduate school. However, previously I lived in an apartment with an accessible fenced in dog park. Now, I just take my Shiba on two 1hour walks and one 30 minute walk every day. On the weekends I take longer walks if I can!
apartment is fine - lots of walks especially first two years, to build the concept of the apartment is the "den" where the tired dog rests. A yard actually can contribute to lazy owner not stimulating the dog enough - "s/he's in the yard, that's good enough" when really, the yard is too boring. Lots of walks.
We rescued our shiba in March and he is 3, we also live in an apartment with another much bigger dog. We walk 3-4 times a day and just encourage play time when he shows interest in it (the stubbornness means he only plays on his terms 😂). He is actually more attached to our other dog, than she is to him-but it took time to get there. I think with enough walks and dedication to play time they are actually great apartment dogs. Good luck on searching shelters, I hope you find the best companion ❤️
@@miyakoakita2529 that's a great way for you and the shibe to get regular exercise!
I love Shibas. I think they’re the world’s cutest dogs, according to my little Shiba Inu puppy, Mitten.
Labrador Retriever: "I live to serve you." Shiba Inu: "What's in it for me?"
"most of the time they understand your command .. but choose to ignore you" hahaha truer words were never spoken.
This was most informative for a potential first time Shiba Inu owner. Thanks for uploading!
Jimmy is so well adjusted to other pups, my 10 yr old female sesame tolerates other pups, but never play, maybe it’s the age. And I mentioned in one of your other videos how my tri-color loves the water trick that you also do, she also plays dead in the same way !!! Your videos are so great, y’all stay safe and healthy !!!
I want to see more videos like this! very informative
Shibas are so special. I am glad this breed exists
Same....I can see why they are so popular with yt , and the internet....u know people didn't pay any attention to them yrs ago it seems like, or is that me ?
@@chaosdweller I think many years ago shiba inus are not as popular and there was no such thing as shibe. They got more popular once they got more accessible (more breeders around the world). Do you have a shiba?
I love your Shiba Inu videos. I had a Shiba Inu mix, Ivan, as part of my family for the last 13 years. Your description of Shiba Inus is right on! He was very smart and quite the character!
Thank you:)
what is your shiba mixed with
I got my Shiba Inu from a pound in Korea. Unfortunately she wasn’t properly socialized when we got her, and she was already a year old. She is surprisingly obedient to the family, but she still chases and barks at other dogs (especially big dogs; she is really scared of them), and is scared of most other humans... But my family loves her very much, and give her plenty of love every day!
This doesn't scare me, this makes me want them even more! So smart and devious. Little joy!
Same! Its Cool That There this independent
i have 3 shibas and ive never been happier LMAO they can be hard to manage sometimes but they’re the absolute best 🥺
Absolutely the best👍🏻

pretty good insights. i lost my shiba from an accident as he was being walked by my brother in law. i remember when he would do weird things just like what Jimmy did on the end of the video. shibas are weird dogs but very fun and loving. i'm excited to get my shiba inu puppy when he's ready to go home! for those also getting shiba rescues, it's common for shiba rescues to be skiddish around people they don't know so please be patient with them. they will warm up to you within the month with proper exposure of letting them know you

Yeah the same vendor has a series of IQ game and its pretty good👍
Great video, shiba's are the best. I have a 8 month old and she's so funny. While they are fiercely independent it's my experience that if you spend the time to train them from early on and you have a lot of patience, they are just as trainable as other dogs.
Absolutely, consistency and patience are keys when it comes to training a Shiba Inu. Thanks for stopping by👍
Stellar video!
Great video! Thank-you for the wise advice.
Luckily, my shiba inu has accepted her sister. We recently adopted her, I kinda knew what to look for. My shiba is a male and likes playful , mainly females AND submissive pups. I got a corgi/pitbull mix. She can be a bit too hyper, specially when he’s done playing and wants to be left alone. She is still learning the cues. My shiba inu is currently somewhere in the house while my new pup is cuddling with me. Perfect balance ☯️
If previous lives are real, then I must've been a Shiba Inu in one of mine. Personality-wise it aligns perfectly.
Me too lol
Really well done and an honest assessment. I lost my petit loup a year ago ...he was 15 and 3 months. I miss him everyday ...
You have raised Jimmy very well! Perfect example of raising a Shiba.
Very good advice! I have 2 Shiba Inu, they are sisters. Sami (Masami) a Cream and Miko (Miyako) a Black and Tan. My daughter and I spent many hours working with them and took them through 2 obedience classes. We socialized them with other dogs, but they still prefer to just be with each other. We also socialized them with people. I call Sami an attention hog as she will seek attention from anyone. Miko on the other hand is more Shiba like and reserved around strangers. They turned 13 March 1st and they are still active and play with each other. I hope I have many more years with them as they have been the best dogs I have ever had!!
Hi Judy, thanks for the comment and welcome to the channel. I treasure everyday with Jimmy although he is just 2. They are just precious and adorable❤
I'm from Canada and own a 14-year-old Shiba Inu named Sully and he's very sweet and loves walks and camping.
Thanks for the comment and welcome to the channel. You must have been taken good care of him👍🏻
My shiba Inu came from a Amish family that left it outside in a cage with his siblings and mom for most of its 8 week life. He didn’t know how to react to the toys we got him, but after patience and lots of playtime outside. He is the best decision I have ever made.
thx for the info, your presentation was very clear.

Great video! Thanks!!
3:29 the shiba licking the huskie-mixes mouth is a sign of submission ... so they are somewhat sociable with dogs
They can be sociable with other dogs if the owner provides the right exposure when they are young.
Now, if you want a REALLY compact shiba inu, get a cat.
Great information
Thanks for the info!
I was lucky that my Shiba I adopted from the humane society was such a good boy in everything he did.
What did not help was my parents doing things to either undermine his progress, teach him bad behaviors, or effect his health negatively.
I honestly hope that after all the detrimental things they did that they won’t euthanize him
Behind my back during the last few years I have with him... assuming he lives long enough to see 15.
me: default dances on Shiba
Shiba: You have asserted your dominance and now I will follow your every order...sir.
We rescued ours from an abusive and couldn’t train him the way we want, but he’s so much better now
I adore these, and I hope to get one as soon as i finish setting up my new property.
I used to own an Akita (Akita Inu) and the Shiba seems like a smaller version of the Akita! Same temperament, intellect and stubbornness in a smaller package.
It's a very good video about shiba inu. As a two years old shiba owner, I just agree with all of these points. I will just say a shiba have some phases during its first year, especially with socialization. I think he changes his behavior towards other dogs when he is around 10 to 12 months and you have to be very aware of that. It's a critical périod in my point of view. Otherwise, a shiba inu is a very affectionnated dog if you build strong bonds with him. Take him of for walk every day, play with him every day, do not use violence as an educational way. Cheers from France.
Hi Iebourse, welcome and thanks for your in-depth comment. Absolutely like mentioned in the video first year is most critical to built a strong bond with your dog including socialize your Shiba Inu as early as when safe to do so. Although I would say even after the first year it is still important to be patient, firm and consistent when it comes to obedience and behavior training. Appreciate the comment. Cheers from US👋
@@SuperShiba Sure, it was just to say to not take anything for granted. A shiba is an everyday job but it worth it.
YES!! there is exactly that!!! - I had no idea this would happen, but managed by pure instinct and some luck to correct my shiba when she did her "teenager" experiment with dog-aggression, and we got it sorted out. A high percentage of other shiba owners over the years in our neighbourhood did not catch that change as their cute puppies grew up, and their dogs are now somewhat to extremely dog-aggressive, which is a shame.
my heart melted when i realized his name was Jimmy. Hes so adorable ❤
Tysm! I’m gettting a shiba inu, so this was VERY helpful and you have earned a sub!
Yes! I can’t stress enough how important SOCIALIZATION is! It only gets harder to do this as time goes by, so start ASAP! Something to really focus on as an owner if you want to be able to take your shiba around with you!
Ha ha ha. I adopted one eight years old with no socialization or training. He became a fine pet - after four years of intense effort. I've worked with dogs for 55 years and he was one of the most challenging!
I love my shiba/beagle mix. He looks like a Shiba but has floppy ears instead of pointy. Acts exactly as you expect a Shiba to though lol
I have one too!
really informative video!
Great overview thank you
