Shiba means brushwood (a reddish brown wood). In some dialects it also means small. If you are referring to Shiba Inu (the dog breed) it is usually translated as little brushwood dog (because of their coloring). In Japanese Shiba Inu are usually called Shiba Ken (Shiba breed) to avoid redundancy (inu already means dog).
