How to distinguish between good and bad Shiba Inu? The Shiba Inu’s head is better with a larger head as a puppy, and the forehead should be moderately wide; the Shiba Inu’s ears should be small and triangular in shape, and those with backward ears or like bamboo leaves should not be chosen; the Shiba Inu’s eyes should be slightly triangular in shape, and the lower eyes should be close to a straight line, and the upper eyelids should start to curve more at one-third from the eye head. The Shiba Inu’s head should be larger, and the back of the head should be moderately elevated, and the forehead should be moderately wide, with a little rounded as a puppy, but it will be better when it grows up, but it is not good if it is too prominent. The nose of the Shiba Inu will be deeper as a puppy, so when considering this, it is important to choose a puppy with a nose that is neither too deep nor too shallow. Some Shiba Inus are still unable to erect their ears 40 to 50 days after birth. If the ears will not stand up, pick up the puppy’s ears with your fingers and observe the ear shape, thickness, ear position, forward tilt, etc. When choosing, choose small triangular-shaped ears, and do not choose ears that are reversible or like bamboo leaves. In addition, the so-called small type should also be in the right proportion to the head, with the right thickness, a slight forward tilt, and just the right interval between the two ears. The eyes should be slightly triangular in shape, with the lower eye curtain close to a straight line and the upper eyelid starting to curve more at a third of the way from the eye head. In the case of a puppy it is not grown to this extent. Puppies should preferably have round eyes and no eye drops. The color of the eyes is best when they grow up to be a strong teal brown, but as a puppy, the color of the eyes should be close to black, avoiding those with light colored eyes. The muzzle should be thick and round with a tightly closed muzzle, and the nose should be black and shiny. Do not pick a dog with sagging upper lip, as if you can not see the lower jaw, the thicker the color of the lips the better, the lighter the color is not good. The upper and lower milk teeth should have 28 teeth together. There should be six upper and lower incisors, two canines and six molars each. Make sure the teeth are aligned. Some puppies have all their baby teeth, but they may not have all their teeth when they are replaced with permanent teeth. In this case, it can only be considered bad luck.
