Summary
About Shiba Inu
Ancient Japanese spitz-type hunting dog, small yet muscular with foxlike face, curled tail and plush double coat in red, black and tan or sesame with urajiro. Independent, catlike, loyal but reserved, strong-willed, high prey drive, needs early socialisation, firm positive training and regular exercise.
About Peruvian Inca Orchid
The Peruvian Inca Orchid is an ancient Peruvian hairless or coated hound in three sizes, elegant and athletic with low‑to‑moderate grooming needs but delicate skin care. Sensitive, deeply devoted, reserved with strangers, it’s a calm yet alert watchdog needing gentle training and steady companionship.
