DO NOT go to Kijiji, Hoobly, Puppyfind (not to be confused with the wonderful Petfinder) or any other classified ad site. NEVER, EVER buy from a pet store; regardless of their claims, all their dogs are from puppy mills. You will be contributing to animal cruelty by buying from them.

Also, consider adopting an adult dog! They are often overlooked and often euthanized, even if they have been housebroken and are easier to take care of. Here are the many benefits of adopting an adult dog

~*~If you're interested in a dog but live too far away from it, there is the option of having a dog transported to you/near you. Google ';dog rescue transportation.';~*~Where can i find Either Shiba Inu or Japanese Akita puppies for sale in the Bay Area?

Hopefully you won't find either. These dogs are not for first time dog Owners and need very experienced handlers.
Guessing by the fact you don't know where to find one, you are not 'in' with other people who have those dogs and therefore should find another dog to learn with.
Akita's can be aggressive, dominant and hard to train. Shiba Inu's are also stubborn a big flight risk and hard to train. Neither of these dogs are the most intelligent which makes training much harder for you.
I hope you find another dog and it fulfils your wishes, I bet there is one at the pound, just waiting for you!
Best wishes
Here are some useful links to the national breed clubs for these breeds as well as some local rescue groups in your area.
