Here's what the humans have to say about me:
My name is Anne and I’m looking for my forever home! I’m still a puppy – I’ll turn 1 in mid-September. I currently weigh 18 pounds. I came to my foster home here in Dorchester, IA, from a commercial breeding facility where I was born. I’m still getting used to being a pampered pet. I’m skittish around loud noises and unexpected movements, but my curiosity is starting to show. I may be shy at first, but once I get to know you, I’ll greet you with tail wags and wiggles and lots of love! I follow my foster mom around the house. There are kids here, and it takes me some time to get used to their squealy noises and sudden movements. I'm good with calm kids. I get along with other dogs, as long as we’re introduced slowly. I love to play chase and I’ve got lots of puppy energy! Sometimes I play rough, so if my forever family has a resident dog, they should be tolerant of my puppy antics. There are cats in my foster home and I don’t bother them. Like a lot of puppies, I love to chew and rip up things – like grass or toys (I’m an expert de-stuffer). I’m a good girl in my kennel when foster mom is sleeping or when she leaves the house. I’m getting the hang of potty training. I don’t make messes in my kennel if foster mom takes me out on schedule when we wake up. I can walk on a leash, but I prefer to do my business in the fenced yard here. I’m not a fan of baths. Nope. My perfect forever home will have patient humans and it would be nice if there was a resident dog to play with. My forever family should be careful to guard against escapes, especially around open doors or gates or fences, since I inherited the Shiba “escape artist” gene. I’m a healthy girl – spayed and vaccinated. I have a mild heart murmur (grade 1-2) which doesn’t cause me any problems. If you live in the Midwest and are looking for an active, affectionate, pretty girl like me, visit www.savingshibas.com/adopt to apply to become an approved SIRA adopter. The application process helps SIRA make sure we’ll be a good match. Once approved, SIRA will introduce you to my foster mom, so we can meet!
