You must take every opportunity to introduce your puppy to all types of new stimulus such as noises, people, pets healthy, vaccinated and even more handling - including grooming and bathing. At this point, your Shiba Inu puppy's mind is in overdrive and at a maximum level. Putting concerted effort and extra time during this period will pay back dividends in the future.
This is the time to introduce the puppy to vacuums, skateboards, bicycles, cats, loud yelling, music - just about anything will be an important learning experience for your puppy. You should begin getting the puppy accustomed to grooming, collars, leash walking as early as possible in this stage.
The most important tip to remember is to start slowly and make sure every experience is positive, fun, and happy. And for this to be possible, you, yourself must be in a calm, patient and positive mood.
This initial fear impact period overlaps with the critical human socialization period. So if you notice that our puppy gets frightened by the sound of skateboards, you must spend extra time training your puppy to develop a positive association with skateboards. This can be done with low doses of gradual, guided exposure as well as rewarding your puppy with tasty treats during the experience.
During the fear impact period, it's important to monitor your puppy and not let the puppy accidentally get exposed to fearful situations without your presence. The Juvenile period begins as the critical socialization period comes to an end. However, just because the socialization window is closing, you must still continue to socialize and obedience train your puppy. So it's important for you and your family members to be vigilant about house rules and not let the puppy push the boundaries of these rules - even just a little.
Proper puppy training will be hindered if certain family members allow the puppy to get away with things here and there. Your puppy will build confidence and trust to those that can provide them with structure and proper expectations.
Sexual maturity will begin during the ending of this period. Male Shiba Inu puppies will start lifting their legs - so training on where this is acceptable and not acceptable must begin.
Make sure you provide ample chew toys and be vigilant about correcting any type of destructive behavior. Your Shiba Inu puppy should never be left in uncontrolled environments without supervision. It's during these unsupervised times that any mischief your pup gets into now will be much more difficult to correct later. Your vet will then be able to recommend appropriate herbal medicines or skin balms to help bring down any inflammation from itching and soothe dry, cracked or sunburnt areas.
As much as it may seem like shaving a layer off your Shiba Inu will make him cooler, it is recommended that you never shave them, since their double coat is what protects their skin against sunburn. A good tip though is to maybe change their feeding times: Since digestion has a warming effect which affects their circulation, feed your Shiba in the cooler morning or evening hours of the day. When your Shiba Inu overheats, he will seem sluggish and unresponsive.
Noticing these symptoms as soon as possible can prevent him from collapsing or suffering a seizure. While waiting for the vet to treat your Shiba, you can keep him cool with wet towels and a cool water spray or give him ice chips to chew on. Pontoon boats decrease in value right after purchase.

These are proestrus, estrus, diestrus, and anestrus. Each stage has differing signs related to behavior, physical or clinical changes, hormonal changes, physiologic changes, and cytologic vaginal smear changes.
Most dogs come into heat twice per year, or about every six months, although the interval can vary between breeds and from dog to dog. Small breed dogs may cycle three times per year, while giant breed dogs may only cycle once every 12 months.
Heat usually lasts between weeks. Early in the cycle, a female dog may not be receptive to male dogs, although some are receptive through the entire cycle. However, the most obvious recognizable sign of heat in dogs is vaginal bleeding.
