Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Toast is a 4 year old Shiba Inu who has a small-dog Napoleon complex. He has a constant need to be the top dog in the room.
He's sweet when handled properly but needs someone with experience to bring him out of his shell, as he has experienced some harsh "training" and is wary of new people. He's okay around cats as long as they don't run or try to get near his food. He would do best with larger dogs, but it's okay with smaller dogs that let him maintain his kingly status.
He has a stage 3 luxating patella, that does not seem to affect him negatively at the moment, but needs to be monitored.
He loves to cuddle up with people who've established trust. He will sit, stay, fetch and come when called.
