Do Shiba Inus like to cuddle?

No, Shiba Inus do not generally like to cuddle. While they can form strong bonds with their people and enjoy being near them, Shiba Inus have an independent and aloof nature, so they prefer their personal space and may not seek out cuddling in the same way as some other breeds. However, it’s important to note that individual Shiba personalities vary, and there are exceptions.

If you want a dog who is consistently affectionate and cuddly, a Shiba Inu may not be the ideal choice. But if you appreciate their unique qualities, loyalty, and independence, they can make wonderful companions in their own distinct ways.
