Wilhaven Shiba Inu

Welcome to my site. I am pleased to share information and photos of my companions with you.
 
Shibas have been an important part of my life since 1990. I have been showing and training dogs formally since 1987 with Rottweilers being my initial breed. I still share my life with a very special Rottweiler but the Shibas definitely outnumber us.
 
I have a very limited breeding program, only planning a litter when I am ready to add another dog to my own home. Being a responsible and reputable breeder is something I take seriously and I will be happy to help you in your search for a good breeder if you have decided the Shiba is the right breed for you.
 
My breeding program focuses on temperament as well as conformation.  Being a professional dog trainer for over 19 years temperament is very important to me. Shibas can live very long, healthy lives so it is essential that they have a temperament that a family will enjoy for many years.
 
If you are newly intrigued by the Shiba Inu and are thinking it might be the right breed for you please take your time and do a lot of research. Finding the right breed for your family is not something to rush into.
 
Genetics plays a very important role in the health and temperament of every dog. Finding a breeder that performs all of the basic health clearances and is selective about breeding dogs with stable temperaments should be at the top of your list.
