Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Kirie is a 2.5 year old female red Shiba Inu that has lived with the same family her entire life. She lived with her littermate/sister, and cats but was surrendered when the two sister pups started to get into severe fights with each other. Reputable Breeders know not to adopt out littermates as there is an issue called Littermate Syndrome. The fights increased in frequency and intensity, so Kirie's family thought it was best to surrender both dogs to rescue. DC SIR has information on Littermate Syndrome in Kirie's Adoption Album on Facebook. Kirie does really well with cats and other dogs--just not her littermate sister.
Kirie is sweet and has her AKC papers--so her adoptive family can participate in AKC events if they wish!
