Best Shiba Inu book

This is one of the best books on Shiba Inus out there. It tells you everything you need to know about this amazing breed of dog. It's got everyting from health care, training and showing. It even tells you the shibas best fit for the AKC and Nippo. It's one of the best shiba inu books and no shiba owner should be without it.

Great book, so far

I got this book because we were adopting a Shiba Inu pup. We already have one Shiba & they are an interesting breed. I feel that the more knowledge about the breed that you can gain, the better the relationship will be for everyone. This book has a lot of in depth information that should help any potential Shiba Inu owner. It has lots of pictures to go with the topics.

Worth Having!

If you're a Shiba Inu enthusiast, this book will be a welcome addition to your library. It's written by someone who owns and loves Shiba Inus, so unlike other breed-specific books that deal mostly in generalities, this book is specific and reasonably honest. The book is substantial and contains a lot of good, respectable information without being too heavy-handed or condescending. It also contains a lot of beautiful color photography.

Shiba Inu

Wonderful book if you have a Shiba or plan on having one. Lots of tips.

Author shares Shiba experience

The author penned a very amusing book on Shibas and shared with us his experience and knowledge of the breed. This is a well organized book for the new Shiba owner or someone contemplating this breed. ... stories and facts are told to tickle the reader; in contrast, Payton's thin tome is packed concisely but serious in delivery. I strongly suggest both books as the best of the lot out there.
