Our story

A close-up of a playful puppy walking on grass outdoors, with a parked car and trees in the background.

Hannah and Anna met in 2023 and promptly began working together. Anna has a background in animal husbandry and previous experience breeding German Shepherds. Hannah has an Animal Science degree and experience in Animal Marketing. Combined, their respective skills have built Kurt Family Shibas into what it is today: a recognised name, breeding healthy, friendly companions for others who love the Shiba Inu breed.
