He's not that large. Its a big leap from Shiba Inu to Akita Inu. There are 6 breeds from japan in this family, Shiba being the smallest, Akita the largest. There are 4 other breeds in between.
i meant he is about 3 inches above, but ill check on that. I got him from a pound thing in the mall.. it said Shiba Inu on the tag where it said what breed it was..
It sounds like he might have a smidge of something that isn't Shiba inu. It is abnormal for a Shiba inu to any larger than 16 inches high from the head. And they even disqualify those dogs at competitions because of that reason.
And dog-stores/pounds in the maill, eeh.. Sorry to say, but a lot of them puppymill their dogs, so I could see how your dog is taller.
You dont know much about dogs, only a few of any breed fall into kennel club standards, and the standards are only for the ring anyway, for example most toy breeds will end up much bigger than what "they should be" and they are not mixed with anything, its just genetics at work as the are breed down versions of bigger dogs...same with the shiba its pretty much the same dog as the Akita with a few other breeds over the years trown in to create the small but strong Shiba inu.
@heilong79 Apparently you don’t know much either. My Shiba is cream colored, which automatically disqualifies it from the ring, but he fits the exact height and size measurements. Yes, Shibas are almost the same dog as an Akita, if you don’t count the one overwhelming fact that Akitas are massive dogs. But you are right about one thing, that certainly could be a pure bred Shiba. But you shouldn't be trusting pet stores for healthy breeding. They are trying to make money, not animal friends.
whys the other dog look so tired, hes like breathing with his tongue lol

Are you sure it's a Shiba inu and not an Akita inu? Shiba inus are compact, not large.
