Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hiro is a 4 yr old Black and Tan Shiba Inu male. He is a bit shy and scared of new people and places but is coming out of his shell at his foster home. He doesn't have any accidents in the house. Hiro gets excited by large dogs and gets along with most dogs his size but may be best as an only dog. He ignored the cat on introduction but adopters with cats would need a meet and greet to make sure they can get along.
Hiro has an open crate for him to enter and exit as he would like but seems to spend much of his time in there. His foster family is using treats and encouragement to bring him out and play more.
