sutsibe Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 I have no personal experience, but it seems to me that a lot of the top Siberian Kennels I've seen advertising also breed Shibas, so I assume that they do... I suppose it would be more how the individual dogs got along... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosemary Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 I know @raindog has a Shiba Inu, if you do a search on the forum you can see some of his posts, or send him a PM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raindog Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Shibas get on really well with Huskies. Beware though, they are just as bad (if not worse) than huskies off lead and as escape artists. Not only do they go "deaf" when you want them to come back to you, but they are more aloof than huskies and much less dependent upon people. They are also very tough little devils. A Shiba escaped its owner in Battersea Park some years ago and it lived there wild for almost a year before it was caught - hunting its own food. When it was finally caught it was sleek, fit and in fantastic condition. We've had Shibas as companions to our Sibes for 16 years - brilliant little dogs (who think they are brilliant BIG DOGS). This is our Shiba "MIssy" with her brother Elvis as Baby pups Chilling on the sofa Keeping Merlin company Part of the pack Mick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Removed #5 Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Had to go wandering on the net and the National Shiba Club of America has an excellent site about the breed. Whoever wrote their "An Introduction to the Shiba Inu" definitely had a good sense of humour as he was passing along some excellent information: If your puppy chews the straps off your favorite sandals it will make you very angry, but don't take it out on him. It was your fault for leaving the sandals where the puppy could reach them. Dogs don't make mistakes, people do. They sounds like a wound up Husky in somewhat smaller size!!!
