I think the worst thing about Shiba's is that they are unfortunately a very trendy meme dog. And a ton of people who own them have never owned a dog before and this is a breed that requires A LOT of experience to manage because of how stubborn and independent they are.

[@RozanneMiller]

They aren't independent dogs. That's a myth. They love cuddles, and being with people. They are stubborn though. I do as I choose is their mantra.

[@gusandlulu]

GOOD point! It certainly adds to the ongoing issue of people not doing their own research of a particular breed and their tendencies before making the purchase. I think social media has perpetuated a lot of that unfortunately, like you said with the shiba inu recognized as the ‘meme dog’. I agree that they are pretty independent (borderline standoffish and that’s totally fine). I work as a kennel tech and every single one I’ve worked with has been like this. Not misbehaving or anything, just… a polite “fuck off” attitude lol

[@VictoriaxCharlotte]

as a Shiba owner, these dogs require a lot of attention, time and training. We trained ours very well and he doesn't mind being washed and even voluntarily goes swimming at the beach or in lakes and he loves sailing trips (as he usually gets to swim). So fear of water is definitely something that can be trained out of them, however it's easier if you start while they're still young.

[@jasonpocsatko]

Trust me, it has nothing to do with water.

My Shiba loves the water. He likes the bathtub. It's the nail clipping he's petrified of. He has to be sedated to clip or he almost has a heart attack from stressing out. He was fine till his 1st BD then he decided in his doggy brain that clipping nails was evil. I had clipped his nails forever. Just a tiny sliver of a nail everyday. He didn't care , he watched. I don't know what changed but it's not worth me or the vets getting bit from his freak outs.

His aggression was directed at the dryer or water nozzle and not at our girl specifically. I think she made the right call to put the muzzle back on.

I hope his fur parents put in the work to help him overcome his sensory challenges.

[@Roman-hg6rg]

​@@guilhermehank4938 I think some must be able to truly understand some words in any tone... Most of the common swear words I'm not able to use at home because my dog is scared of them. Whether they're whispered to myself from another room, or said with joy or excitement or laughter; it's always had the same sad result of a very frightened girl who sneaks out of the house very very quietly and goes to hide in the bushes in the garden. :( (Don't worry, I have never sworn at her. She was a rescue.) So I have to say silly ones like "jiminy cricket" and "fiddlesticks"... A big, tall, bearded dude, home alone with a 'scary' (not at all scary) black german shepherd, saying "fiddlesticks" in quiet agony to himself because he got chilli in his eye or closed a drawer/door with a finger still in the way. Or spilled a cup or uncooked rice behind the oven. 😑 Sometimes, it feels ridiculous. In a funny way. Like if somebody overheard me they'd think I was weird for not using proper swear words. But she isn't afraid of the kid-friendly substitute words. So it works! ☺ ...it's hard to remember to use them when something is funny or exciting though. There isn't a good, punchy replacement for "that's fucking awesome!" which still feels authentic.

[@Dickstick]

@@Roman-hg6rg They obviously dont know the literal meaning of words but they associate them with stuff. Just like they learn commands, they learn the meaning of other words too. If the dog learns what the word "treat" means then youre in for a treat. Your dog is a rescue and I, the armchair dog psychologist, assume the swear words are linked to her past. People frequently curse animals out (or sadly do worse things) and the animals are of course emotionally damaged because of that. Just like some people shouldnt be parents, they also shouldnt have animals.

[@shibaweebas]

I started taking my shiba to the groomer at 16weeks 😂 the groomers were VERY appreciative i started her early. So far they say no shiba tantrums or screaming after a year

[@Stella-xh8hi]

I have a shiba who actually LOVES being groomed. His groomer always shows him off to her coworkers because he happy dances when you blow dry him.

[@AJGecko18]

It's like Shiba Inu is Huskie's and Chihuahua's mixed distant relative all the way from East. An ultimate vocal ball of sass and nerves! ✨😈💕

[@astrinymris9953]

They're all considered "primitive breeds" who are closer to their semi-domesticated ancesters. And they probably are related; huskies and Teichichi dogs are believed to descended from dogs northeast Asian nomads brought with them when they crossed the Bering land bridge to colonize America. Or at least that's what I've read.

[@agathevikredanielsen1856]

As a Shiba owner I can relate to some of the little protests in this, pulling paws, stressing a little and dropping the tail. My shiba was showered since he was a pup, we clean expecially his paws often and he doesn’t like it but accepts that it has to be done. Never had him screaming or growling, so I think this is more a lack of exposure and not being consitent in what you expect from the dog. He does look like a cutie tho so hope they get him used to it ❤️

[@DenmarkRadar]

Proper upbringing and training makes a huge difference. You have taught your dog that cleaning his paws is safe and thus ok. That's the difference. The owners of Goku will have to pay for some proper training to get him to accept bathing.

[@eva-w]

Are Shibas notorious for getting into dirt? Like no mudd puddle or pile of horse manure is safe? I'm reading the comments and wondering why they need to be bathed all the time..

[@RozanneMiller]

Shibas need a lot of brushing, but rarely need bathing.

[@agathevikredanielsen1856]

@@eva-w mine will jump over any puddle it can and dodge mud at all costs. In the fall and early winter before it freezes it is impossible for him to dodge it all so it is a seasonal thing. We also live in an appartment without a proper hallway so rinsing off his paws so he is allowed on furniture is a must for us. We live in Norway and most our walks are in forests and on gravel, not on roads. Generally the Shibas coat is very selfcleaning and a lot of dirt and stuff will fall off, but when it’s really soaked outside it doesn’t all fall off☺️

a friend who had a shiba inu once mentioned to me they're very cat-like. That makes a lot of sense with how you described them,"does not do what he doesn't want to", a trait cats are notorious for! Beautiful dog, either way

[@reginalunaraea]

Also, as a cat in dog body, Shiba relatively clean, they love to groom themselves like a cat. Sooo yeah, while they still need professional groomer, at least they can do some of the job their own

[@aaronutley]

They are SUPER cat-like, esp in that most want to be near you, but are sort of aloof and not super cuddly, and that they groom themselves obsessively, so as long as you can get them to let you brush them routinely (they shed CONSTANTLY), they don't really need a whole lot of grooming.

[@battlchikn2975]

I own a 13 year old shiba, who is a CGC. No attacks while grooming except to my ear drums as she screams bloody murder (she is convinced she is dying every time). Remember to start training the moment you get a shiba, lest they become hellspawn

[@Lytshi1992]

[@Kiryuu238]

As a owner of 2 Shibas (and more in the past) I have some recommendations for those considering this cat in a dogs body breed. As a puppy, day one when you get them, touch their feet. I’m talking hold their paw and tickle those toe beans. EVERYDAY. Reward for good behavior meaning no pulling or snarling. Introduce a brush, several brush types early. Water introduction can be difficult as both my Shibas will gladly run into a puddle or ocean surf but bath time they can get vocal. Again small steps and lots of positive encouragement. Did I mention touching their paws everyday? Both our current Shibas get their nails dremeled at home with no fuss or screaming, handle the velocity dryer like it’s a itch that it can’t quite get, and brushing is tolerable for about 15 minutes. I invested in one of those nifty nozzles that allows soap and it’s made things a breeze. I call it the full dog daily massage, as I rub them down looking for and lumps or bumps or random plant matter that hitched a ride, ending with a toe touch. Yes Shibas are dramatic and screamers and will fight you over dumb things, but YOU as a owner can make things better for the groomers or vets in the long run with basic everyday training and positive reinforcement. Touch those toes!

[@Avatinfernus]

Yeah I've a friend who has a Shiba (as her first dog) and it's the most well behaved dog. Friendly to cats, dogs, friendly to many people, lets people handle him and dress him up for pictures. Only thing her dog can't stand.. is other dogs with poor manners. lol So clearly either she got a gem of a dog either they're just very trainable if you start young as you say.

[@Kiryuu238]

@@Avatinfernus They can be absolute stubborn logs when they want to be, mine will lay down right in the middle of a walk if we don't go the way THEY want to go. Also they are kinda snobbish, I have seen them give the side eye or ignore people trying to fawn over them. But absolutely you must start early with them. I see many youtube videos of screaming shibas and so much of it is lack of training and exposure. So just give them a little bit everyday, this goes for any dog (or cat) honestly

[@dawnmitchell11]

I was wondering if they're quite cat like! I have a GSD/heeler/chow mix. You can't tell chow by looking at her, but she totally has the personality. 😆 I had read that chows are very cat like and as a previous cat owner, I can confirm this is true. She is a velcro dog, but yet fiercely independent. She tolerates hugs from her people and is the fun police whenever people or other animals are playing together (thanks to the herding genes!).

[@ListenAndWhisper]

Ah yes, the Shiba scream and bath time. When we got a Shiba I had to always have our well behaved german shepherd go first, with the Shiba in the bathroom so he could see what was expected. Then the shepherd had to stay in the bathroom when it was the Shibas turn for a bath. If the German shepherd wasn’t in there, I was dealing with that from the video. He got used to it enough that he’d mostly stand through bath time without issues, as long as he got lots of praises!

And grooming was one area I wanted to see more of, so to have it be done by my favourite grooming channel is amazing! Edit: Thank you to people commenting suggestions, advice and stories of their own Shibas. It’s so sweet to hear, not to mention very helpful in my knowledge quest before getting a Shiba. 🥰

[@lasgsd1]

If you are really serious about getting a Shiba, talk with as many Shiba breeders and rescue groups as you can to learn about the breed. They are amazing little dogs but require a very specific type of owner. Good luck!!

[@Babs-Veterans-are-Family]

I have 2 Shiba's mine do not act like the one in this video. Liberty the one in my pic will not let my family pick her up or try to move her bathing tho she doesn't scream or anything will try and run from it but will tolerate a bath. Stryker doesn't like to be bathed but will tolerate it. I love this breed like all dogs they need to be worked with. They can be amazing wonderful family members with the right person. There's a lot of Facebook groups for Shiba's. If you're in Washington Oregon area there's a group called Pacific Northwest Shiba's
