Oh yes...the blow their coat quite dramatically...similar to a husky.

Gone2Dogs

Yes, very much so.

Dobergirl

thanks my bro wants one

Criosphynx

They are not for the faint of heart!

Mikey

Yes-VERY high energy dog.

Also basically any dog who has fur (instead of hair like a poodle type) is going to shed. Those with long coats or spitz types (like huskies, shiba inus etc) are going to be BIG shedders-re:brushing twice a day and still needing a pet hair vaccum-type shedding

Gone2Dogs

With Shiba's it isn't even the high energy....it is the piss on you attitude. "You want me to do that? Tough"

They are clean personlly usually but shed like mad.
But to me it is like having a husky with the brain of a cat. Good mousers.

I do believe that they are also quite the escape artists!

I got 2 that were puppy mill rescues a little over a month ago and LOVE them. They are energetic but very smart. Even in winter I'm brushing once a day minimum or when they get on my lap there's hair on me. To me though the personality is well worth the shedding.

Dobegirl-take note-that's a lot of shedding and grooming

Janesse-would love to see pictures of your two Where did you get them from if they were puppymill rescues? Did a shelter do a seziure?
