Negative Positive
Title: A good primer, but nothing like the real thing!
Review: After 2+ years of researching, thinking, and searching, I am now the proud pack leader of my own Shiba Inu. This book is a great beginning on the basic breed personality, finding a good breeder (take your time!!!), and some things you can expect with Shibas.Still doesn't prepare you for the joys and challenges of raising/owning a well-socialized, good canine citizen Shiba. While the book convinced me that the Shiba was the dog for me, actually living with one is a lot of fun-- with the caveat that I have the time it takes to socialize and train my dog. (Because of the human-dog bond, I'm not sure he'd follow his commands from a different human in my absence).I do wish the training tips and hints were expanded and continued-- these smart dogs will have more commands under their harnesses in their first week with you than you'd believe!
