4SHIBAS (SHIBS) There is only one Shiba breed found in the western world, and we know it as the Shiba Inu, but did you know that there are actually three other Shibas of Japan? They are the Mino Shiba, the San’in Shiba (sometimes seen as San In or Sanin), the Shinshu Shiba, and of course, the Shiba Inu, the most common of the four.  Some say there are five Shiba breeds, but those people would be including the Jomon Shiba, a “re-creation” breed we’ll get to in a minute. 0xdc44b1819c787a9ac8a6009c28a2032f0b2668e8
