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.

Picasso × Oami Alpha Litter Arrives – “Up In Smoke” Theme on 4/20

by Rex Gaylord on 04/21/26

We are pleased to announce the arrival of the Picasso × Oami Alpha Litter, born on April 20th — making this a naturally themed “Up In Smoke” litter in honor of the famous 4/20 date.

 

This special litter combines two exciting pedigrees, pairing the proven qualities of Picasso with the lovely Oami. We are looking forward to watching these puppies develop over the coming weeks in structure, temperament, and overall promise.

 

Current Arrivals

So far, the litter includes:

Red Boy 1 – temporary name Chong

Red Girl 2 – temporary name Cheechie

Both puppies are off to a strong start, and we are enjoying their first days as they settle in with Oami.

 

Litter Theme: “Up In Smoke”

For those who know their classic comedy references, the theme is a playful nod to the iconic duo behind Up In Smoke. Temporary names are just for fun during early puppyhood, but they help us track each puppy as personalities begin to emerge.

 

What We Expect. This breeding was planned to produce puppies that reflect the qualities we value in the Shiba Inu:

Sound structure

Correct breed type

Confident, stable temperament

Strong health potential

Performance and companion versatility

As always, final evaluations will occur as the puppies mature. Early promise is exciting, but thoughtful breeder assessment takes time.

 

Follow Along

We’ll be posting updates, photos, and development notes as the litter grows. The first few weeks are all about health, nursing, sleep, and steady progress—but before long, eyes will open, personalities will emerge, and the real fun begins.

We are excited to welcome the Picasso × Oami Alpha Litter and can’t wait to share their journey.
