About Saving Shibas

Saving Shibas Inc., a California corporation, is a small canine rescue specializing in the Shiba Inu breed. Our dogs are rescued from shelters, neglect, abandonment, and homes in distress. We ensure that each dog that is rescued is neutered/ spayed, fully vaccinated, micro-chipped and evaluated. The dogs are placed in our volunteer’s homes, where they are cared for in a home environment, integrated with families and other pets (as applicable). The dog’s health, temperament, behaviors are all evaluated and documented during a period of approximately 10-16 weeks. In some cases, the Shiba Inu may be put on a training program with an IACP (International Association of Canine Professionals) accredited dog trainer for behavior modification. Only after the dog is properly evaluated, and all medical needs are addressed will the dog be placed in the appropriately fitting home for both the dog and the adoptive family.

All of our dogs are adopted out with an "ok" from our vet stating that they are healthy and have no illnesses.  They go to their homes with bedding, a 5lb bag of food, toys, all of their vaccines and spay/ neuter already performed.  They are also microchipped.  Forever homes will need to register the microchip and get their new pet licensed in your county.

The adoption donation is tax deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law since we are a registered 501c3 charity.  Please complete an application at:

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
