Shiba Inu Rescue Association (rescue)

Shiba Inu Rescue Association (SIRA) is a volunteer organization dedicated to saving abandoned, neglected, and abused Shiba Inu, Shiba mixes and other primitive breeds. Our rescued dogs come from commercial breeders, shelters and individual owners. We evaluate each dog for temperament and place them in nurturing foster homes where their needs, medical and otherwise, are addressed in order to prepare them to be placed in thoroughly screened, loving, lifelong adoptive homes. SIRA also works to educate the public on the Shiba Inu breed in addition to the importance of responsible pet ownership including spaying/ neutering, dog training and obtaining a dog from a reputable breeder or rescue group.

Shiba Inu Rescue Association is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization based in the Midwest. Our service area includes Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, North Dakota, South Dakota, Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee, Oklahoma and Wisconsin.

SIRA's board reviews each applicant for approval and then reviews each potential match for approval. Home visit volunteers are trained. SIRA pledges to support all dogs for life and requires adopters to return dogs to SIRA if they can no longer care for them. SIRA provides a social media forum and one-on-one support to help adopters address any behavioral concerns.
