決める前に知っておくこと
Important behavioral traits that potential owners should understand:
Extreme stubbornness. If a Shiba doesn't want to walk, it will plant its feet and refuse to move. This is not a training failure - it's a personality trait.
Unlike Golden Retrievers that tolerate hugs, Shibas have strict bodily autonomy boundaries. They may snap or scream if touched in a way they dislike - risky for families with toddlers.
Highly common for Shibas to develop aggression toward dogs of the same sex, typically emerging at 18-24 months. Dog parks become impossible.
You can almost NEVER trust a Shiba off-leash. Their prey drive and independence override training. If they see a squirrel or decide to explore, they're gone.

Tip: Teach children to be gentle, never disturb during eating or sleeping
Children (5-12 years)
