Welcome!
Welcome on the website of Shiba Inu kennel “Mori Nohata”.
We are a starting breeder of the Shiba.
Since 2016 we live close to the Staphorster forest. Which is where our kennel name Mori Nohata is coming from. In Japanese it means “on the edge of the forest”.
Health and character are important to us. We aim to breed social and healthy puppies whose parents are (clear) tested for Hip Dysplasia (HD), Patellar Luxation and hereditary eye disorders (ECVO). We breed according of the rules of the “Raad van Beheer” and breed club NVAI.
“Shiba Inu: a breed of character!”

No puppies until fall 2021!
We do not expect any puppies until fall 2021! We do not have a waiting list and do not accept new applications until the stud notification.
Shun gave birth
Shun gave birth to 4 beautiful puppies. The delivery went according to the book. We are very proud of our first litter. There are NO puppies available!
Shun is expecting!
Yesterday it was confirmed that Shun is expecting puppies at the end of July. The ultrasound showed at least 3 puppies. We are very happy and look forward to our first litter.
Date Shun & Chico
Last week Shun & Chico have been on a few dates! In a few weeks we hope to know if Shun is expecting. At the moment we have enough interested people.
Date on the schedule!
Shun has unexpectedly come into heat earlier. We are now determining the correct breeding time by measuring the progesterone level in the blood.
