My story

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

Oso is 6 months old born on August 19th 2025. I have a Shiba Inu, his mom, and unfortunately she got pregnant before she got spayed so she had her beautiful litter. Unfortunately I cant keep them all even if I want to. He is not food aggressive towards humans, I could put my whole hand in his mouth and he would try to eat without hurting me. He might be food aggressive with other dogs though I would admit him and his siblings like to fight. Other than that hes very friendly towards humans. He loves to play and he can be a little wary with strangers but he warms up real fast.

He has no problem wearing a collar but can sometimes be stubborn when walking. Very friendly and loving, Hes comfortable being inside and outside. He is cage trained.

One time he did leave the gate and unfortunately got injured by a car luckily he is fully recovered the injury wasnt severe but he lost one or two of his back nails.

I recommend supervising him when outside if you live in a car-centric area.
