Since you’ve never owned one, I don’t think you are qualified to expound on the qualities of or disadvantages of the breed. All dogs of the same breed are not alike. They share some traits. It would not be good if Shibas became overly popular because it would lead to random breeding and ruin the breed like so many…

Even if you are a vet tech, you haven’t met all the Shibas. Mine is very sweet at the vet. The vet’s office is a very scary place. Many dogs feel as though they are defending themselves not being aggressive. Maybe you should study up on dog behavior.

Shiba Inu’s are not designer dogs, they have been around for centuries. They are not someone’s idea of wouldn’t it be cute if we mixed this breed with that breed. I wouldn’t trade my mischievous little Shiba for anything.
