Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Taro is an 8 year old male Shiba Inu that lived many years in a puppy mill breeding puppies but also lived in a home at one time. Thanks to many caring people who donated, DC SIR is going to make sure that he gets the proper medical care and surgery if needed. Although Taro hasn't been in foster care very long, he's already discovered the joy of playing with toys and other dogs.
Taro is currently receiving treatment for an infection in his eye, after which we'll schedule a follow up appointment. Donate to Taro's Medical Fund: http://bit.ly/VzmJ7D (make a note for Taro's fund)
