Meet the breeder

I'm Benjamin Z., the breeder behind Nippo Shiba located in San Leandro, CA. All of our dogs are loved as family members. We cherish our puppies from birth up until they leave our arms to snuggle into yours! When we got our first dog, we were instantly in love. Since then, we’ve made it our mission to bring happy, healthy puppies into the lives of other families!
