Hi, my name is Jack.  I got my first Shiba in 1997, Kira, and have been in love with the Shiba ever since.  We got Oberon in 1999 after we moved to Reno, and then finally added Bailey to the family in 2002. In February of 2007 we had the opportunity to rescue Max from the animal shelter in Las Vegas. They had an outbreak of a very fatal virus and put down 1000+ animals, but Max was spared. We fell in love with him, and he has joined our "pack". We feel fortunate to have the four most wonderful shibas in the world, at least that is what we think!

Dogs For Sale, SacramentoColorado Shiba Inu Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, no-kill organization dedicated to the rescue, training and rehoming of Shiba Inus and Shiba Inu mixes in Colorado. We do not have a shelter or facility that can be visited by the public. Rather, all of our dogs are cared for in loving foster homes. Our directors and fosters are located throughout Denver and Northern Colorado’s front range.

Colorado Shiba Inu Rescue takes in Shibas from animal shelters statewide, as well as from people who can no longer keep their beloved friend. This way, we relieve the shelter load and we are able to commit to the individualized attention of the breed and to each dog that comes through our doors. While awaiting adoption, our Shibas are assessed with men, women, children, other dogs, cats and public situations such as going to the dog park or into a retail pet store. This way we know exactly what to look for when finding the right permanent home for each dog. Every dog adopted out receives: All potential owners must agree to at least one home visit prior to adoption and agrees to complete all training recommended for the Shiba Inu that is adopted from the rescue. “If you want a dog who loves you unconditionally, who never has a bad day, who always has a smile on his face, and lives to please you…get a lab, golden retriever, boxer, etc. If you want a dog with fire in his heart, spirit in his soul, a twinkle in his eye and a mind that will keep you on your toes…get a Shiba!”

“Owning a Shiba Inu is an adventure in itself.”An absolute must read for anyone planning to add a puppy to their family, Dr. Ian Dunbar’s Before you Get Your Puppy (.pdf) and After you Get Your Puppy (.pdf) share effective methods and ideas for training and developing good and healthy habits at an early stage in your puppy’s life. Dr. Dunbar introduces the reader to the use of Positive Reinforcement based training methods. These methods have been proven in study after study to be much more effective in teaching dogs the behaviors we want. In clear steps, with helpful photos and easy-to-follow training deadlines, he presents a structured yet playful and humorous plan for raising a wonderful dog. Dr. Dunbar’s guide is based around six developmental deadlines including: Just as children have sensitive periods so do dogs, and training in certain areas are ideal during this period. Moreover, we are seeing more dog on dog aggression in general. Much of this is due to the outdated advice of isolating one’s puppy until they have received all puppy shots.
