I have a female shiba. She’s great and loves all dogs and humans. Pretty friendly towards humans but definitely not eager to please. Also not food motivated. Found her as a stray and I love her she’s amazing.
Mine found me too as a stray... under my house to stay warm when it got below zero degrees. Pet Rescue couldn’t get her out and told me she was abused and I could never trust her. But now that I found out what she is... it’s her personality. 🤣
Biggest difference i noticed is my female having a much higher prey drive and seems to love every person/dog while the male was more aloof towards strangers but much more energetic in general.
We kept the male shiba and sold his sisters. One of the females was definitely waaaaaay smarter than her brother. However, we kept the male because of his sweet personality. He is a super smart dog too, but not a genius dog like his sister was. It would have been fun to keep a dog that could be taught how to fetch and use the doggy door instantaneously at 4 weeks but our male is so good natured it outweighs any of that.
Have male and female, they’re problem solving smart, so know they are not without their own ideas. They’ll pick up things just by watching you. They are my babies and love them very much
It's so odd you feel the need to share that they're your "babies" and that you love them 😂 That aside, Shiba are the most intelligent dog I've ever seen.
I recently got a male pup. He's really smart and clever... when he wants to be. Lol I taught him to 'sit,' 'shake' and 'lay down' in a few tries. Highly food motivated. Only issue is he's still learning to go potty outside, but he hasn't had many accidents. He doesn't like mud. As someone who has grown up with huskies, shiba are not as difficult to train.
So I haven't had a Shiba but I have worked with them before and if you take them outside half an hour to 45 minutes after they eat they should eventually get the idea they are extremely smart and beautiful dogs and all the ones I've met have trained themselfs
I have 3 year old female and needs to be in the same room with us all the time loves to be cuddled and very vocal she loves other dogs and strangers and her family she is the perfect dog it was not easy to train
Our little girl definitely is picky about where she goes to relieve herself, and she has NEVER rolled in the dirt. I have to be careful where I stand so she doesn't kick dirt up on me after she goes.
OMG, I was laughing so much at the first 3 minutes of this vid! I have littermates, a male and a female. My female is the pleaser, super smart, learns tricks and is much more friendly than her brother. My male is EVERYTHING Shiba … wants affection on HIS terms, knows his manners but only when he feels they are necessary (usually for treats), and couldn’t give a rat’s a$$ about being friendly, esp around other dogs. They have been this way since puppyhood and they are now almost 11YO. Both are extremely clean (my female is grooming ME as I watch this vid) and very healthy. And to me, I agree with the “females look softer” comment … I usually see a “delicate”-ness when I see females. Boys usually look a bit more “beefy”. But as you said, everything is in general. 😊
I've got a male and a female Shiba-Inu. My boy (Shiba, 4yo) walks without his leash most of the time (he nearly never leaves my side or comes right back when I call him). He learned 'sit' right away but after that he wasn't really interested in learning other tricks. I took him to different teachers but in the end, he only knows basics and important commands like 'come', 'stay', 'give' or 'stop'. He is not really talk-active but he loves all kind of animals, other dogs and people, even strangers. He may look like a big bear but he doesn't always like cuddling. He is afraid of nothing but fireworks. Sora (6months old), female, is the opposite: she loves training (she can do tricks like, sit, give paw, roll etc etc) and omg she talks A LOT - Like all the time and she tries to do so with other dogs as well. While Shiba doesn't like water - it's hard to get her out of the water. She is bit more of a scary-kitty tho - so while she loves other doggos she is keeping her distance from strangers and many things she doesn't know yet. But she loves cuddling very much! They both aren't really food motivated, so I often have to be creative. Both are really clean - they would constantly clean each other at home. I don't know which gender is ""better"" but my girl is sassy and more of a drama queen. A while ago she even tried to train me but I made it clear that she can't order me around as she pleases but since then she seems more obedient than before. 🤷♀️
I hear female shibas are drama queens. I only have a male shiba and some of the females i have met are pretty loud. But some are very calm. It's what jimmy's mom said about training. I get a lot of compliments on how my 10 month old is very calm, social and playful. It could also be his personality from his mom. Because we met his mom and she was sooooooooooo friendly and calm. So i guess a few factors go into what you might except from your shiba in general, regardless of gender.
I have a female shiba and she’s definitely a drama queen, and she is very vocal to say the least 😂but she loves me very much and loves my other dogs and cats and my nieces and my girlfriend❤
I have a girl shiba. She's obedient with me, but couldn't care less about anything or anyone else. We have two other dogs (different breeds) and she does not like to interact with them. She dislikes going on walks and she doesn't like rides in the car. She will take off if not careful when opening doors and she is extremely food motivated and very agile. She has caught mice in the backyard. Her fur is soft ASF; like a stuffed animal toy come to life.
I grew up with cats, so I never really got to know dogs. That all changed when I met my future wife, who owned a female Shiba pup. 13 years later and they are still the leading ladies in my life. Shibas are somewhat cat-like so it actually was an easy transition. They are awesome.
I have a 5 year old male who is super smart and was super easy to train. He caught on quickly with hardly no accidents at all. We have 4 kids that have done everything with him so he's super friendly. He loves visitors and he loves all 6 family members the same. He listens great and has to be in the same room as one of us at all times. However he is not super cuddly. Only on his terms. He is obsessed with playing fetch ALL THE TIME. We recently got a female who is now 9 mths. She is more timid and very affectionate to all 6 family members. Always laying with us or trusting us to protect her. She took forever to train and is very picking on where she uses the bathroom. Even still will have an accident here and there. And she is super scared of strangers. She barks and growls at them like crazy. They were raised in the same environments so its just crazy how different they can be. Just our experience.
I am on my second set of shibas which were/are both brother/sister. I have found what you talk about to be true. I have noticed differences in the personalities both good and bad. I love the differences, so I keep getting one of each! I noticed the males are more laid back and clever while the girls rule the house and just get right into trouble without bothering trying to be clever. The girls would also have the tendency to clean the boys up especially cleaning the ears. Gross. I love watching the mix of the personalities. The boys do seem more eager to please and are slightly easier to train.
I have a 7 years old female Shiba (first dog) and just got a little male Shiba (he's 6 months old now) and I don't know if it's just because of gender but Wow! They are so different one to another! Haha! Definitely my little boy is more dependant to me than my girl. It's not just because he's a puppy still. He always wants to cuddle and come close to me but my female, even as a puppy, was the most independant haha. This is one thing I like more about him. But it all comes to a balance. I believe that the fac my female is more independant and doesn't care about anything around her, makes her very calm and silent. She never barks unless very specific. I notice my male barks a lot more for more reaons! For cleanliness it's also night and day! My female was clean from almost day 1 I got her (at 8 weeks old). Never really got an accident inside. Little male still needs the pee pads and have some accident beside when too excited. He was also a very big eater at the beginning. I had to buy a slow eater bowl because he was swallowing everything at once haha My female was always a princess when time for food, eating super slowly. In summary, I absolutely don't know what would be the preference! I love the fact that he wants more cuddles, but I love that she is more calm and silent. When I got her I was still at school and in an appartment (not supposed to have dogs allowed...) so the fact that she was that calm (still excited as a puppy though!), no one noticed I had a dog haha. The breeder suggested me a female to be more independant and let me study when I need so she wouldn't feel left aside because they are more independant. I think it worked well :)
So far, I have found male dogs in general to be more eager to please then females. It probably helps that the male is super food motivated. Definitely want to get a male Shiba.
They are Both Awesome! Trust Me! Actually, they choose You! Mine did. 'Friendliness' has to do a lot with how You bring them up. Start Early! They Are Highly Intelligent. My first, Nikko, chose me, he was Absolutely an Awesome Fellow. He passed on 7/25/20. I miss him Terribly. I Highly recommend neuter/spay.
I have both. Both are rather friendly. Female is way more friendly. Especially to strangers. Trainability, male is more handler oriented. He looks for guidance. Female has more drive, works faster and really wants to do work for you. Female also works for everyone, as long as that person has Food. Girl is friendlier to dogs. Male only wants to be with me. I like the female more. 😂 Appearance wise, boys are bigger bulkier with more cheeks.
Great video as always, I know you speak out of experience and I must admit I disagreed with much of this one with my 20 years experience with the Shibas I find the females to be much easier.
Interesting. Most information I gathered are either from online or past experiences working with breeders. I never have a female Shiba so if someone has had both would love to hear more about their experiences with both gender!
I have a female, she was easy to train. She's definitely sassy.. But don't do something she doesn't like she'll smack the daylights out of you wth her front paws.
My Loki is a sweet loving boy. Always wants attention. Will definitely allow you to smother hun with cuddles with very little complaints. Always ready to play but also always ready to attack anything that comes into his yard. Loves other dogs and new people though but with dogs he thinks he’s always top dog.
Great video! I got myself some books about the Shiba Inu and was surprised about the different opinions about gender preferences. Iit would be interesting for me, if you recognize some differences in socializing with other dogs except to other breeds. Sorry if you already answered this question.
My daughter is thinking about getting another shiba inu ,she has a male now, I was wondering if she should get a female or another male which do you think would get along better
Hi in general a female and a male will be a nice balance but it really is totally up to you and your daughter what she likes. The breeder likely will also recommend a female if you mentioned you already have a male dog.
@@SuperShiba anyone know where I can talk to a reliable breeder about adopting one of these amazing animals I was super excited to have her join our family but the puppy I paid for will never come

Who the hell recomends shibas for dirst owners- I mean i am a cat person but even i find it difficult to handle the female mixbreed Shiba, /Pomerian from my flatmates
Males are a lil bit of bozos, they are easier to train and friendlier but that comes with stubborn rambunctiousness of testing constantly. My shiba will be 6 in march and only now is he starting to calm down and act like an adult dog who is mature. 🤣👍
I have a female shiba. She’s great and loves all dogs and humans. Pretty friendly towards humans but definitely not eager to please. Also not food motivated. Found her as a stray and I love her she’s amazing.

They’re all great. Love Shiba’s.
So far, I have found male dogs in general to be more eager to please then females. It probably helps that the male is super food motivated.
Definitely want to get a male Shiba.
we have both and both are super I also do rescue for the breed since 2000. Each one has their own ways with the core basic behaviors
My male shiba learned all tricks in 5 minutes

Which one is better ?
Both are better .
I wished you talked about the behaviours of you don’t spay or neuter your shiba. So you can be prepared to make that decision.
Very lovely and Oh' Beautiful this dogs 💞💞🐕💞💞. Like this and this wonderful breed 🏆🥇🍃🌹〰️〰️👋Thank you. Byee
My girl is more aggressive and talkative. My boy he is more laid back
JIMMY IS SO CUTE!!
Love You And Jimmy ~
4:35 my shiba puppy has not taken his 3rd vaccine yet so we need to carry him when bringing him outside
im gonna get one at the next bull run
I am aware of a Shiba named Kylo that you should have a look at.
I like male shibes more because their personality is cuter in my opinion when it comes to appearance i cant tell the difference between them
where can i adopt a shiba inu in india?

Yes the personality section is more relative to real life. Always have problems with these females.
male shiba inu is better for me
I think the girl is really cute
Well, just buy both of them eventually. 🤭

Preferably Jimmy clone
