Tobitatsu Shiba Inu

Part of Nikko’s AKC STAR Puppy class is working on leash walking and recall. These are some of the focus of our homework for last week. She is slowly getting better at it! ☺️ #preservationbreeder #showdogsoftiktok #purebreddogs #shibainu #shibabreeder #dogtok #shibatok #shibapuppies #thisisakc #shibapuppy #nihonken

Just reminiscing on the past ~6 years since I started getting into showing purebred dogs. I’ve owned Shiba since 2007 but, 2019 was my first step into my first well bred purebred. ❤️ #ethicalbreeding #preservationbreeder #showdogsoftiktok #purebreddogs #shibainu #shibabreeder #dogtok #shibatok #shibapuppies #thisisakc #shibapuppy #nihonken

Maeko was hanging out with me the other day in the computer/whelping room! She is still looking for her forever home! She’s a sweet gal and loves her people so much. She needs time to warm up to new people but, once she loves you she will be your best friend! She is a Shikoku Ken, which is a cousin of the Shiba Inu. She would do well as an only dog or with a male dog that can put up with her pushy play style. I can provide more info in messages if you’re interested. ❤️

#onthisday a year ago when my first litter was just ~5 weeks old or so! #shiba #shibainu #fyp #dogtok #dogsoftiktok #foryoupage #shibatok #shibabreeder #purebreddogs #nihonken #shibapuppy #shibapuppies

I felt motivated this morning so I did some leash training with Nikko. There is a Rally trial in late May I would like to get a few of the dogs ready for to maybe try Novice. #shiba #shibainu #fyp #dogtok #dogsoftiktok #foryoupage #shibatok #shibabreeder #purebreddogs #nihonken #shibapuppy

Leash Training with Renton

Some leash practice with Renton this morning! There are a few Rally novice trials in late May so we are trying to practice a little and maybe try it out this spring. ❤️ #shiba #shibainu #fyp #dogtok #dogsoftiktok #foryoupage #shibatok #shibabreeder #purebreddogs #nihonken

Just when you think spring is here … Minnesota provides. #shiba #shibainu #fyp #dogtok #dogsoftiktok #foryoupage #shibatok #shibabreeder #purebreddogs #nihonken #shibapuppy #shibapuppies

Practice stacking with Nikko! #shiba #shibainu #shibapuppy #shibabreeder #shibasofinstagram #shibastagram #shibainustagram #shibainusofinstagram #purebreddogs #showdogsofinstagram

Nikko is becoming a big girl so she is paying back Byakko for picking on her so much the past 2-3 months. 😂 Byakko kind of deserves it though. #shiba #shibainu #shibabreeder #shibasofinstagram #shibastagram #purebreddogs #showdogsofinstagram #shikokuken #shikokudog #shikoku

Little Nikko is so fun to watch in the backyard, she is quite the character! #shibainu #shiba #purebreddogs #shibasofinstagram #shibabreeder #shibastagram #showdogsofinstagram #shibainusofinstagram #shibapuppy #shibainupuppy

Nikko doing AKC Tricks

AKC Trick Dog is a great way to build a bond of positivity and training with your puppy! And you can earn fun little titles/certificates for your pup in the process from the AKC! Check out more information here: https://www.akc.org/sports/trick-dog/ Of course I don’t require or expect any of my pet puppy owners to do these things but, it’s a great gateway to trying other AKC companion events and sports like Fast CAT, Agility and Rally! #shibainu #thisisakc

Even if she isn’t the most perfect puppy, she is #1 in my book for her temperament alone. I was very happy with the outcome of my last breeding getting a puppy like this! ☺️💞 She has been like this since she was a few weeks old, now she is almost 4.5 months old and still as content as ever. 😂
