At Satika Kennels, our focus is simple: the preservation of the breed. We gauge our success through participation in CKC and AKC confirmation shows, achieving high championship levels that reflect our commitment to breeding quality dogs that exceed the standard.
Our goal is to produce puppies with show potential. At eight weeks of age, we assess the litter to determine which puppies meet our strict specifications. We typically retain at least one puppy from each litter to develop its potential, but if multiple puppies show promise, we may offer a show agreement to prospective owners.
Our puppies undergo extensive socialization from infancy to nine weeks, using techniques from programs like Puppy Culture and Avidog’s Savvy Socialization courses. We encourage you to research these methods to familiarize yourself with their approach.
For videos of our puppies learning in new environments, check out the Satika Kennels Facebook page. We strive to expose them to a variety of sights, sounds, textures, and heights to ensure they grow into calm, outgoing companions.
Shiba puppies are naturally curious and enjoy exploring, even in the snow. We ensure they have a warm and cozy environment when they need a break from the elements.
