The bible of the Shiba Inu.,
By
This review is from: The Total Shiba (Hardcover)
If you are going to buy only one book on the shiba inu in English, this is the one you should own. This is the most definative book written on the shiba inu. The book includes a 26 page gallery of the most influential shibas in most breeding programmes in the western world pre 1995. The book includes very specific information on genetics of shibas. Also includes detailed drawings of the standards. All in all this is the most informative book on the shiba inu currently. This book's title is definately what it is, The TOTAL Shiba. It is clear that the authors have done their research, and have done it well.

A Must for a Shiba Breeder,
By Rebecca Baxter - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Total Shiba (Hardcover)
This book is EXCELLENT for the Shiba breeder. I have found it extremely helpful in pedigree research, genetics of the breed, and the detailed explanation of the standard is fabulous. However, I usually do not recommend it to first time Shiba owners. Most of this book is geared to breeders. For my pet owners, I always suggest the Complete Shiba Inu by Atkinson. If you can buy both, GREAT! If you need to choose one, think about what you need and get the book that covers that area.

A Necessary Reference Book for the Shiba Owner,
By "net-tech" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Total Shiba (Hardcover)
This is my favorite Shiba book. I have been involved in the breed since 1987 and this book (to me) is a culmination of the years of knowledge and experience I had to glean by hanging out with the best. It has almost everything that a person would want to know about the Shiba Inu. The authors are highly knowlegeable and have been involved in the breed since before 1986. Fred Lanting, world renowned judge and Shiba Breeder, gives this book a glowing review...he calls it; concise, constructive,accurate, and comprehensive.In the back of the book are over 100 photos of the Shibas that were the foundation of the Shibas in America today. Many of the Shibas in Shibumi Shiba Inu's pedigrees are pictured there. I wish this book had been available in 1987.

Look before you leap,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Total Shiba (Hardcover)
This book was interesting, historically, and if you are thiking about showing a Shiba. But if you just bought a Shiba, it gives you little details. I would recommend it for a coffee table book, but not if you are looking for details on your puppy and training advice unique to Shibas.
