Story
Meet Syrah! Syrah is a smart, confident, and active pup looking for a family who can keep up with her sharp mind and independent spirit. She shows classic Shiba Inu–type traits: affectionate on her own terms, loyal as long as you’re in sight, and happily self-assured. She’s very intelligent and highly trainable—already walks well on a leash, knows “sit,” and even rings a bell to ask for water. Syrah enjoys a challenge and loves enrichment, especially her Kong. She does test boundaries and has some alpha tendencies, so she’ll thrive with confident, consistent leadership. Syrah would do best in an active home with structure, enrichment, and time spent outdoors—her favorite place is the backyard soaking up fresh air alongside her people. With the right family, Syrah will be a fun, engaging, and deeply rewarding companion.
