Welcome to Roscka Shiba Inu Roscka babies are lovingly hand raised in our home by our familyDr.Kyle,Carla,Alexis and Austin Ross.They are handled everyday from birth, and are socialized with other dogs, animals and people. Some Shibas can become headstrong if not raised correctly, so we start with the type of handling that will insure a well adjusted adult. It's the new owners responsibility to enroll the puppy in a socialization class or puppy kindergarten to continue this training in class as well as in the home. It's natural for some puppies to feel threatened by other dogs. As a result, the pup my growl or snap at another dog. Classes will help the pup learn the self control and confidence it will need to become a well adjusted adult. It is important however, to make sure young pups are not dominated by large dogs that may scare it. Shibas can be very good with children if the parents take precautions to teach the small child that a puppy is not a toy to be carried around and pestered. The puppy also needs to learn that it can not expect to treat the child as if it were a littermate. Both puppy and child need to be taught to respect each other and to give each other the space needed. We feel there is no excuse for an ill mannered or bad tempered Shiba They, as all dogs, thrive on discipline. Respect is gained of you as their leader, through proper training and affection.We take much care and pride in proper training to assure and outgoing and stable puppy.
A typical shiba litter of 3 | A Shiba from Roscka: A naturally clean dog and very catlike, they have a good start with potty training and beginning leash training when they leave for their new homes. With little effort, a Shiba puppy becomes trustworthy at an early age. We recommend crate training for most puppies as they begun here with us. Not only is it easy for house training uses, but for the overall safety of the puppy while the new owner is not available to supervise.
These dogs shed twice a year, but combing and bathing will help get through this time when the fur fly's. The rest of the time is hardly noticeable. Of course , a good diet and proper health care makes for a shiny less shedding hair coat.
We plan a 1or2 litters a year with the hopes of retaining one for ourselves. The rest are either placed in good show homes, or as family companions with spay neuter contracts. Once the puppies have been born, potential buyers are notified and given the opportunity to decide if they want to put a deposit on a pup to hold it for them if they haven't already. The deposit is refundable in the event something would be wrong with the pup when taken in for their health checks. Visitors are welcome to see the babies, but not until they are at least five-six weeks of age. They will be too young at that time to select a puppy, but a great time to interact with the babies. All puppies leave us with the following: a collar,proper comb brush, a health check record, a shot and inoculation history, a pedigree, a picture and health check certificates of the sire and dam, and enough puppy food to last a few days. We encourage all buyers to stay in touch. We are always available to answer questions and offer advise. ****Most answers on the same day or maybe a few days later if we are at a show. |
