Welcome

Welcome to Shomaisou Shiba Inu. We are undergoing a facelift at this site so you may still see pages in the old format. This page includes current litter announcements, puppy updates, evaluation links, and placement information for families following our breeding program. We will be doing a complete re-write of our FAQ and have decided that Newsletters and the Blog below were redundant, so we will continue doing updates to our Blog below and we will preserve the older Newsletters.

Our puppies are raised with careful attention to health, structure, temperament, breed type, and best-fit placement. Final placement decisions are made thoughtfully as puppies mature and are evaluated.

Kuzya X Bella Bravo Litter DNA Results and Coat Color Characteristics

by Rex Gaylord on 01/25/21

When working with sesame lines, determining coat and color characteristics can be a little tricky. For the first time we ordered DNA on all the puppies instead of just the one(s) we will keep. The results came in today and we had a few surprises. The #1 girl that we were expecting to be sesame turned out to be red (ayat, same as her mother). #2 was confirmed as black and tan (atat) carrying the recessive cream gene Ee). #3 boy confirmed to be sesame (awat). #4 boy who we believed to be red or sashige turned out to be red (away). The sesame gene AW is hidden. He may produce a sesame if bred to the correct female.
