The dog case was personally of interest to us because we had a shiba inu for just shy of 16 years. Even though we loved him oodles and miss him even though he has been gone for almost 4 years, we know it's not a breed for everyone even though they are extremely popular right now as an Internet meme. You need to be in charge so they know you are 'alpha', Also it's a breed that you never ever let off lead when out in the open. They have a very high prey drive and will either run away (and they are extremely fast) or they will look for something to hunt, birds, rodents, small animals. They are small dogs but they have big hearts and egos.
