I never heard of this mix before, but I am currently looking for a shiba inu puppy, and I found a breeder that breeds pom shis. I'm wondering from people that own pom shis what they are like?
I know this post is EXTREMELY old and dead... >_> But oh well... ((Blame Bing, it led me here... .-.))
I had been looking for a puppy for a while. I had either wanted a Pembroke Welsh Corgi or a Shiba Inu (I know, completely different personalities.)
I came across a Shiba breeder who had a litter a Pom-Shi puppies. They were $100, and believe or not one of the least expensive puppies I had come across the last 6 months or so.
So, I contacted the person and met him that day. Very nice people. They gave me my little 9-week-old Tobias Comet (Tobi). They said he won't get bigger than 15 pounds!
He is very healthy, but nervous. They raised that litter in a barn so he wasn't used to being an inside dog so the new things scared him for the first couple of days! His personality has definitely come out now though! He is now 12 weeks old and a goofball!
The Good Things That I've Noticed So Far About My Pom-Shi:
EXTREMELY Dog Friendly
The SOFTEST coat!
Very clean
Funny and full of personality!
The Not-So-Good Things That I've Noticed:
Very suspicious of new PEOPLE and situations.
Got the yappiness of the Pomeranian...
Very Nippy and Wiggly

Here are some pictures of my baby Pomeranian/Shiba Tobias!:
Another Cute Picture of Tobi
And a picture from his "awkward phase", lol. 10-11 weeks old.
Our other dog is a Rottie/Lab mix that was on the euthanasia list for the week at a local shelter, so we adopted him, lol. Totally worth it~ Him and Tobi and best friends! :]
