Boomlay Shiba

Boomlay Shiba Located in Florida. Sharing the adventures, daily life, and my musings on the Shiba Inu. I focus on temperament, structure, and type – in that order.

Boomlay is a up-and-coming Shiba Inu kennel located in Tampa, Florida, specializing in versatile AKC and NIPPO registered Shiba Inu. I strive to produce mentally sound Shiba with balanced structure and a good work ethic. I not only show my dogs in conformation but I also participate in performance events with my dogs including Barn Hunt, Fast CAT/CAT, AKC’s Trick Dog, AKC’s Canine Good Citizen, Ra

lly as well as training for agility. Our goal is to preserve & promote the Shiba Inu as the breeders in Japan intended the Shiba to be. Our dogs are raised with other animals including other dogs, cats, rabbits & birds (budgies, pigeons, ducks). Socialization and good genetics is key. The dogs travel to wherever dogs are allowed, making them more well rounded and less likely to develop fears or phobias. Our Shiba are health tested before breeding – eyes, hips, & patellas are OFA certified. I’m a member of the Heart Of Dixie Shiba Fanciers, the National Shiba Club of America, Nihonken Hozonkai (NIPPO), and the Florida Cracker Horse Association

Last but definitely not least - the wild, the wonderful, & very obnoxious Wallen! Just like his BFF Brently, he figured this photo shoot was a personal invitation to make it about him 😂 I’m glad Katie got good photos of him because he was having a lot of fun being Wallen 😂

First hike of eight down for the Hillsborough County hiking spree. We went to Lake Park & hiked the Lake Vista trail (1.6 miles) the wrong way 😂 The dogs had fun as it’s been a while since we could go hiking due to the heat. I’m excited to go on more hikes, especially to parks we haven’t been to before.

It’s Brently’s turn to shine. & oh was she a ham when getting her photos taken. She looks so beautifully rustic in the Ocala wilderness. The woods just match her so well.

My original wild child - my first homegrown brat. Oh my how much you have matured, this makes me hopeful for your son 😂 Delilah has always been something else, really testing me when she was younger but now she’s reminding me more of her mother Nekora.

I had the honor of having Katie Osborn Photography photograph the dogs! I think she did an amazing job capturing the dogs’ personalities. I’m in love with all the photos of the shoot. I’m going to share some of my favorite photos throughout the week but it was hard to pick a handful per dog.
Here’s Nekora looking all posed & proper before getting the itch the be silly 😂

Today was our last show of the year! With pet sittings & a taxidermy competition coming up we’re taking a nice break. While he didn’t get any points, I’m proud to say that Wallen took Reserve winners dog & I think showed very well. He has matured a bunch these last 2 weekends - from goofy young puppy it finally clicking and him acting like a show dog!
He’s a great ambassador for the breed, maybe a bit too friendly but he really loves meeting people & making them fall in love with him. We had a judge beeline to us while waiting ring side because she had to say hi to him. She really liked him & we chatted for a while about Shiba & Kishu. It’s a humbling but proud moment when a judge of your breed, who isn’t judging & is a spectator comes up to see your dog. It made me really proud of my little boy & he did his best to charm her. 😂

Today Wallen took winners dogs for 2 points! He showed beautifully even though we both were melting in the heat. He just loves to show - life is his party!

He has 7 points with limited showing - always owner handled from the bred by class 😊
Thank you Jesse for the ribbon photo & Ronnie for the ring side photo.

Happy 7th birthday to my home grown brat Delilah!
I can’t believe 7 years ago you came into the world - a physical representation of everything I wanted at that point in my life & what I hoped to achieve.
You have aged gracefully & remind me more of your mother every day, not the bad puppy that made me question my life choices (your son took that title). 😂
Here’s to many more adventures, shenanigans, & celebrations 💗

Our Story

"Temperament, Structure, and Type – Kan-i, Ryosei, and Soboku." We are small, brand new Shiba Inu breeder located in Tampa, Florida, specializing in AKC & NIPPO registered Shiba Inus that excel in temperament, structure, & type – in that order. We not only show our dogs in conformation but we also participate in performance events with our dogs including Barn Hunt, Fast CAT/CAT, AKC’s Trick Dog, AKC’s Canine Good Citizen, as well as training for agility. Our dogs are raised with other animals including other dogs, cats & birds (budgies, pigeons, ducks) while being exposed to horses. All interactions are supervised. Our Shibas well socialized – I take them where ever dogs are allowed, making them more well rounded & “bomb proof” in unfamiliar places.

Our Shibas are health tested before breeding – we check eyes, hips, & patellas with OFA. Puppies are sold on spay/neuter contracts. Show puppies are sold on individual basis. Occasionally we may have older puppies or retired show dogs available to a loving home.

I’m a proud member of the National Shiba Club Of America and the Heart Of Dixie Shiba Fanciers – a small regional Shiba Inu club .
