My personality

Why I need a new home

Does not get along with other pet

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Owston is a goofy, affectionate, incredibly smart dog! He absolutely loves people-- snuggling, walking, playing, and making you laugh. He unfortunately is not getting along with my other dog any longer and is looking for a home where he can be the only pet.

Owston will love going on walks with you, exploring new areas and sniffing *everything*. He is very food motivated, and quickly learns new tricks once he realizes he'll get treats! In true Shiba fashion he will constantly try to outsmart you, but unlike a lot of Shibas, he is an absolute cuddle bug. When he's not off exploring, he wants nothing more than to be snuggled up on the couch or someone'ss lap (even if he's a little big for that!).

It breaks my heart to be separated from him, but I believe Owston will truly flourish as someone's only pet. I would love to be able to receive occasional updates or photos-- he will always be in my heart. I only want what is best for him.
