Breeding of Shiba Inu

The Shiba is a breed of hunting dog originally from Japan. Shiba inus are usually small to medium-sized dogs, although their size can vary greatly; Shiba inu males typically weigh 20-30 pounds (9-14 kg) and stand 16-17 inches (41-44 cm) tall at the withers, while females typically weigh 16-24 pounds (7.3-11 kg) and stand 14-15 inches (35.5-38 cm) tall at the withers. Shiba inus come in all sorts of different colors and patterns, but all Shiba inus have one identifying factor: their red nose (although this is not always the case). Shiba inus are often referred to as the Shiba Ken, Shiba Shuu, or simply Shiba.

Shiba Inu dogs come into heat (estrus) twice a year; once in the winter and once in the summer. When a female Shiba enters her first heat cycle (known as proestrus), there is usually a bloody discharge from the vulva or vagina accompanied by behavioral changes, including increased urination and restlessness. Shiba inus are not good at predicting when they will next come into heat, so their owners should be vigilant about keeping them away from male Shiba inu dogs during this time.

Most Shiba inu dogs are not spayed or neutered unless they have health issues that require it, so Shiba inus are often allowed to come into heat twice a year. Shiba inu females can become pregnant as early as five months old, but waiting until the Shiba is about two years old will maximize the Shiba’s chance of having healthy puppies.
