Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Kensei is a 3 year old male cream shiba inu, who was found roaming the streets. He was lucky enough to be adopted out relatively quickly; however, his new family gave him back to rescue. During his time away, he developed some leash reactivity, especially towards other dogs. In foster care, he is still good with his old friends in rescue but our new assessment will require that he be an only dog. He is a playful dog who loves to run around and especially loves belly rubs!
Kensei is a very affectionate and loving dog to the people he knows and trusts. He will cuddle up in your arms and spend the night sleeping in them. He hasn't had any accidents and is playful and energetic.
Other considerations:
1. Prefer suburb to city or have the ability to walk in quiet paths
2. Will require a force-free training contract
For more information on Kensei, see his Facebook album:
