Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hanako (hah-nah-kO), which means "flower child" in Japanese, is a 6 month old Red female Shiba Inu/German Shepherd mix that was transferred to us from A Puppy's Voice Rescue after they were so gracious to pull her for us from a high-kill shelter in New Mexico. She is currently just under 30 pounds and we don't expect her to get over 40 pounds full grown.
Hana is good with other dogs, cats and kids over age 5, she's a little unsure about toddlers. She is currently fostered with a female Blue Heeler mix just a few months older than her and the two are just in love. She would love a home with another playful dog to keep her entertained.
Hanako is doing well with potty training and is great in her crate. At her young age we do not recommend her being left out loose in the house when no one is home or overnight. She is currently crated both for bedtime and when her foster parents leave the house and she is fed in the crate to associate it with her meal. This should continue in her forever home to prevent house soiling and destructive behaviors that young adolescent dogs can have. She is good with short chain link fencing but also loves walks so she could easily be adopted either into a home with a yard or into an apartment setting.
Hanako's adoption fee is $400.00 which includes her spay, microchip, deworming and distemper vaccination as well as a professional training course.
