Story
Meet Lex! Lex is a wonderful Shiba mix looking for his forever home. This super clean and well-mannered boy is fully potty trained and not a barker. He’s easy to have around and loves his routines. Like many Shibas, he does have a tendency to run if given the chance, so a secure fenced yard is a must. Lex gets along well with other dogs who are calm and respectful, especially those that don’t try to dominate him. He’s also fine with cats and is fantastic for grooming, enjoying a good pampering session. Some of Lex’s favorite pastimes include basking in the sunshine, hunting bugs in the grass, and catching treats midair. He would do best with respectful kids who understand his independent nature. Lex would love a home where he can relax, be adored, and enjoy plenty of treats and outdoor time. A home with prior Shiba (or similar breed, like Akita or Finnish Spitz) experience is preferred, as Lex has the trademark independence and confidence these breeds are known for. Lex is about 9 years old, around 40–45 pounds, and takes allergy medication twice a year for seasonal flare-ups. He walks beautifully on leash, is not destructive, and keeps his space spotless. Adoption fee is $350+tax, please apply at www.campcompanion.org
