Shiba inu puppy unplayful?!?

I have a 14 week old Shiba Inu puppy, we've had him for 4 weeks now, and I've noticed he's not playful at all. He'll get going for at most 5 min with his chew toy, but thats only when his teeth hurt at night. Why is this? I know shiba's are extremely active.








ohh btw he was just diagnosed with giardia last week, so can this play a part in it?

It is posible that giardia is the reason. Not all dogs are as active as others of the same breed. She will probably become more active as she gets a little older.
Reply:that could be it. Puppy doesn't play for long either. They sleep alot.
Reply:umm it might be because of the giardia. but shiba inu should be playful. try getting it to play with toys by waving it in their facfe nicely. hope i helped!♥☻☺♠♣♦○◘•◙♂♪♫☼►◄↕‼¶§
Reply:Puppies sleep a LOT. When my labrador was that age, he would sleep practically all day. Now he basically has a nap and then plays the rest of the day until bed time.





You'll notice when they aren't themselves. That usually means they are sick. When my dog gets sick, he just lays around and whines a lot. If you're worried, take him to the vet. They can give you information and tell you if your dog is sick or not.
