I just recently had a Shiba come into my life, see the Cute Dog Wandered Into my House thread in the general dog chat section for more details. I do know that they can be independent and can have a strong prey drive. I have seen the independent streak in Loki but not the prey drive. He also has shown a cat-like nature, cleaning himself a lot or preferring to sleep on the back of the couch. Any info you guys can give me about the breed would be very much appreciated. I am researching about the breed but I feel that getting first hand info from actual owners may be more helpful. Then again all dogs are unique and none are the same. Whatever you can give me is welcome. Here is Loki he is 16 inches tall and weighs 21 pounds: Click on the above picture to view the video
