Story
My name is Cinder and I’m looking for my forever home. I’m 18 months old and a confident, curious, people-oriented girl with a big personality. I bond strongly with my humans and like to be involved in whatever they are doing. I’m affectionate and cuddly – I love snuggling on the couch and getting attention. I came to my foster home here in Columbus, OH, after surviving Parvo Virus. There were 11 of us who all got sick, but thanks to SIRA and a very kind vet who took us in after our breeder would not pay for treatment, we all survived! I had some fur loss, but it’s growing back nicely. Now I’m healthy, spayed and vaccinated, and weigh 19 lbs. I’m a good girl in the house – potty trained and I sleep through the night well. Foster dad says I’m super-smart. I’ve learned the routines and expectations here in my foster home really quickly like mealtimes, bedtime, and what we do when foster dad goes out. Predictable schedule and consistency really help me adapt. I’m not shy about expressing my opinions – and I have plenty of them. You will know if I find something objectionable. But I settle nicely if you reassure me. I love exploring my surroundings. I would be a great match for someone looking for an adventure buddy. Like a typical Shiba, I’m a natural door-bolter and escape artist, so my forever family should be super careful when opening doors and gates and take measures to prevent me getting loose and going on unsupervised adventures. I’m not fond of being left alone for long periods, so my perfect forever person would be someone who can spend time with me and who appreciates an attentive little shadow. I’d do well with an experienced dog person familiar with Shiba Inu personalities. There are other dogs here in my foster home, and I’m good with some of them. Because I’m a bold, spicy girl, I’d match best with laid-back, friendly dogs who don’t mind my confidence. Slow, gradual introductions will help, since I can be reactive through gates and barriers. If you live in the Midwest and are looking for a sweet and spicy girl to be your loyal companion and very best friend, visit www.savingshibas.com to apply to become an approved SIRA adopter. The application process helps confirm that we’d be a good match. Once approved, SIRA will introduce you to my foster dad so we can meet.

Story
My name is Mister Clean and I’m looking for my forever home. Why am I named after a bald guy? Well, I came to SIRA after being found lying in mud on the side of the road, emaciated and bald from a severe flea infestation. I was in bad shape. X-rays showed metal and food wrappers in my tummy – I was so hungry I ate anything! My ears were infected and I was very anemic. But once I got food and vet care, things got much better! My fur started growing back and my ears healed. And I put on weight – I’m about 28 pounds now. I am being fostered just north of Columbus, OH. SIRA thinks I’m about 10 years old. I’m great with other dogs and I love cuddling with my foster family. Yep, you heard that right. I’m a “fake Shiba” since I love to snuggle. My foster family was told that I may have a disc problem in my back and maybe something going on with my hips, but so far, nothing slows me down. I dart, spin, and dance my way through the house! Every time I come in from a potty break, I get the most exquisite zoomies. I pirouette, fling myself up on the couch, and then dance around the whole house. I love going on walks with my foster family, getting treats and belly rubs, and perching on my favorite chair. I’ll happily speak up and tell you off if you’re too slow to take me outside or if you’re not sharing your treats with me. I am fully house trained and I do fine when my foster family has to leave the house. Now that I’ve beaten the odds, the only thing I need is a forever family. My perfect forever home will have a nice comfy spot with a sunbeam to nap in and someone who will let me sit in their lap and give me a rub-down. If there’s another nice dog, that would be great, but I’d probably do fine as an only dog as long as you spend time with me. I’d do best with a securely fenced yard, but also enjoy leash walks. I'm neutered and vaccinated and ready to go! I haven’t lived with children, cats or small pets, so I don’t know how I’d be with them. If you live in the Midwest and want to give my “rags to riches” story its happy ending, I promise I’ll be your fun, smart, spunky very best buddy. Visit www.savingshibas.com/adopt to apply to become an approved SIRA adopter. The application process helps SIRA learn more about you to make sure we’ll be a good match. Once approved, SIRA will introduce you to my foster mom so we can meet. I would love that!

Story
Barb was a rescue. I spotted an ad on Craigslist for a Shiba Inu and pictured was a filthy puppy in a plastic bin. We paid for her in a CVS parking lot and brought her home, washed her up and took her to the vet. We already had two Shiba Inus. She’s always struggled with food protection, becomes extremely distressed in a crate, and will become alarmed if picked up around other dogs. She always had a tense relationship with our second Shiba, a girl. However, in 2024 when our baby was born and our senior boy Shiba died at 14 yrs old— within two month’s time— she and the second one cannot get along. Moreover, she struggles to handle our toddler having food around her without trying to take it. Barb is gentle with the baby— even when she slyly grabs her food. She’s also really struggled with chewing the baby’s things. She has not been a chewer outside of that. Barb gets along with our parent’s dogs. However, she is not friendly toward other dogs when on a walk. Yet, she’s easy to walk.

Story
Meet Lela 💕 At just 6 months old, Lela is a sweet Shiba Inu mix who has already learned that life doesn’t always go as planned—but she hasn’t let that dim her bright spirit. She’s currently at a rescue, patiently waiting for the forever family she deserves. Lela has all the best traits you’d hope for: smart, curious, playful, and full of personality. She has that fun puppy energy and loves exploring the world around her. Like many Shiba mixes, she also has a little independent streak, which only adds to her charm. Once she feels safe, her affectionate and loyal side really shines. Because she’s still a puppy, Lela is at the perfect age to learn, grow, and form a strong bond with her forever people. With consistency, gentle training, and lots of love, she’ll grow into an incredible companion. She’d thrive in a home excited to continue her training and enjoy the unique personality that comes with a Shiba mix. Right now, Lela is waiting in a rescue kennel—but she should be learning routines, going on walks, and curling up in a home of her own. If you’re looking for a loving, spirited, and adorable puppy, Lela is ready to meet you. 🐾
