Please note that we have multiple litters planned for 2025 & 2026 and we welcome your puppy application.
To submit your interest in a puppy from us, please click the link below
Submitting your Application is going to take some effort on your behalf and likely will be considered too invasive by many of you and I am ok with that. 😊
- We will keep all information supplied confidential and will use this information to inform decision making about which has pup we might offer.
- We do not take deposits until we have an actual pup to offer you and pups will need to be paid in full before they leave.
- I do regular live streaming of the pups, provide photos and updates and I socialize my pups very well. I health check (hip, elbow, patella & eye) all adults before breeding and supply
copies of those results, along with comprehensive diet and training advice, meal packs and a substantial puppy pack to new puppy owners with lifetime support.
- I try to match up puppy and family personalities - they are not always the easiest breed to live with!
You can see more info on the Puppy Information page, including video's of an example Puppy Pack and Puppy folder - please take the time to review the information on this page as well before you
submit an application.
So - with all that in mind, its only fair that you go to an effort in your response to me about why you would be a good home for one of our pups.
- If you have previously visited us or met up with us at a show – note that in your application and the approximate timing.
- If you are looking for a show prospect - why? Are you a member of a State/Territory controlling body? Have you ever shown before? Why your interest in a show dog? (Note that Show Dogs / Main
Register are also sold on contract
- Why do you want a Shiba and why do you want one from us? Tell me about yourselves and convince me that you truly know what you are getting yourself in for by having a Shiba Inu join (take
over) your life.
- Have you met Shiba’s? What sort of contact or interaction have you had with the breed to date?
- Have you already got a Shiba or previously had a Shiba? Who from (what breeder) and what sex? Why aren’t you going back to that Breeder?
- What is your family composition – do you have children, if so, how old are they and do you have any other pets? I would like to see pics of any other pets and details about them – are they
outgoing or shy? What sort of personality are they? Who is your local vet?
- What is your working situation? In the office or from home? How often is someone home? Do you have other adults living with you?
- Where do you live? Your address and contact details? Is it your own home or are you renting? If you are planning on moving, approximately when and to what?
- If you are in an apartment, what floor and what access do you have to the outside and how do you plan to manage toileting, especially if you are not working from home – how does the pup get
out to toilet?
- If you are in your own home, do you have secure fences and a non-toxic backyard (you will need to consider the plants you have and ensure they are safe for pets) and for apartments and
houses, I would like to see pics of your fences, gates, backyards and how the pup will access the house (such as dog door or what are your future plans) and for apartments, pics of your balconies
and the living spaces you will be sharing with your puppy.
- What colour and sex puppy are you seeking and have you any idea of what sort of puppy personality might be best suited to your family situation?
- What about an older dog? Are you interested in an adult dog (2-6 years) or even a mature dog (7 years plus)? Tell me why those age options might work for you?
- What is your time frame for a new puppy or new addition?
At this time, we do not request deposits but please, be respectful - if you have requested a pup from us and instead get a pup from elsewhere or change your mind, please let us know - we dont
then waste your time or ours.
