Best Answer

Inu is the literal word for dog in Japanese so calling a dog Shiba Inu in Japan is redundant. The dog is referred to as Shiba Ken (ken being the word for breed) or simply Shiba. Due to a recent popular Softbank (mobile phone company) ad campaign, white/cream colored Shibas are often referred to as Otou-san, the dog's name in the commercials.
