Morty is such a ball of fun. He hasn’t met a person he doesn’t like or a dog who he thinks is bigger than him. He has so much energy and personality.

Communication with Kathy was fantastic. She was very professional and informative, a pleasure to work with. We couldn't be happier with our new Shiba, his name is Max and he is strong, healthy and absolutely amazing. I would 100% recommend Kathy. We absolutely adore our new Shiba Inu. He is highly intelligent as well. Kathy does a great job preparing/potty training and caring for the pups for there new families.

We adore our puppy Koda! It has been about a month now and he is healthy, already potty trained, so intelligent and easy to train. It was clear that Kathy cares a lot about the puppies and she did a lot of the ground work for potty and crate training before we picked him up, because he adjusted so easily. She was also very understanding and communicative. I definitely recommend Kathy and Shinobi Shiba to anyone looking to add a Shiba pup to their family!

My experience with Shinobi Shiba was phenomenal. They were very patient and understanding. I am incredibly happy with my experience especially since this was my first time adopting through a breeder.
