Please do NOT purchase pet store (puppy mill) puppies! All they care about is money and not about proprly testing the parents of the pups for genetic defects. Do your research to locate reputable breeders in your area!

Likewise, do NOT buy puppies over the internet! No reputable breeder will ever advertise pups/dogs for sale on the internet (this includes streaming sites). You should be able to visit the breeder to see the conditions of the pups/dogs and get a chance to bond with the pups before you decide on whether or not they are right for you. If the breeder doesn't allow you to visit beware, it's likely a puppy mill.

Do note, that most reputable breeders have waiting lists prior to a litter being born. Once you have located a breeder you feel good about ask to be placed on the waiting list.

Another option would be to consider adopting a rescue Shiba. Go to this link to view rescues across the country or to make a donation:
