About Shiba Inu

Independent, catlike, loyal but reserved, strong-willed, high prey drive, needs early socialisation, firm positive training and regular exercise.
About Halden Hound (Haldenstøver)
The Halden Hound is a rare Norwegian scenthound, medium-sized, athletic and robust, bred to hunt hare in cold, snowy terrain. Calm and affectionate at home but driven in the field, it has a short white coat with black and tan markings, low grooming needs, and high exercise demands.
