We live just outside of Chicago, and we periodically see raccoons, possums, and skunks in our backyard. We will be bringing home Hunter, our Shiba pup in a couple of weeks and have some concern with him going after these animals.
We're guessing he will go after them given the natural prey drive we have read about. We don't mind him doing this as long as he does not get hurt (or sprayed). Raccoons and possums can get violent and the skunks obviously spray if they feel threatened. Does anyone have experience with their Shibas and these types of animals?
