Thought I would share some photos of Remy and Guinness. Hope you enjoy! You can see the size difference Remy is 2 years old and Guinness is 1 year old, Remy is a tad larger than a Shiba should be LOL.

    Cute boys. Remy looks like he might be part Jindo.

    We got him from a breeder and his papers show his family history of Shibas for at least 3 generations, both his parents were taller though.

    I loooove the picture of Guiness sitting on Remy's head.

    And um, not to be rude or anything, but Remy definitely has a more Jindo-esque face/head than a pure Shiba. Just an observation.

    Remy has a very shiba face. He looks more like the pure shiba of the olden days before the cutesy small features are now what is desired by most breeders.

    Of the shibas I've lived with and know their faces like the back of my hand... no two faces or features are a like on any of them.

    Jomon shiba type:

    Not to be contrary or anything, (and sorry to jack your thread!) all the "olden" shibas I could find very much like the Shibas of today with very slight differences.

    I would be very surprised if Remy's breeders were breeding Jomon Shibas, as I understand they are quite rare. His face just looks more like a Jindo than Shiba IMO. See the following Jindo/Shiba crosses:

    why is there even discussion of whether or not the dog is a shiba?

    Both your pups are awesome, actually Remy's stoic face reminds me a lot of my male shiba.

    His papers say Shiba Inu no kind of variation listed.

    Not that I really care since we am not breeding him or being anal about it.

    I am not sure why this came up in discussion, I just mentioned he was taller than most shibas /shrug

    I didn't ever say he was not a Shiba. I just said his face was more Jindo-like.

    Edit: If this is causing a problem, a mod can delete my posts.

    @tsukitsune Thanks!

    His face does resemble the faces of the Jomon type on that link you shared. Interesting how they reconstructed that skeleton!

    Both your pups are cute, Remy has a regal face and Guinness just looks to be a little whipper snapper.

    And as I recall, there are quite a few shibas on here that are taller/bigger than standard, and quite a few face types as well.

    Standard only matters if you are breeding and/or showing. Otherwise who the hell cares? Your dogs are very cute.

    I looked at your other thread and postred there too, but I'll say it again. Remy is one handsome dude. I think my Shiba boy looks a lot like your guy, the ears, tail and markings are especially similar. It looks like he gets along well with your little guy Guinness.

    They get along great. We made sure to introduce them properly when we brought little Guinness home March 2008. I'll post the video of them when Guinness was a wee pup soon.
