Story
History: Tsuki is a beautiful petite girl who was welcomed to rescue and reported to be bred. It has been determined she is not expecting puppies and is officially ready to start her journey in finding her forever home soon. She is working through some medical things such as a grade 2 heart murmur that will be evaluated further and a leg dislocation concern however she is doing well in her foster home and hopes to meet you soon! A Note from the Foster: Tsuki is a beautiful Shiba Inu with a heart as bright as her smile. After spending her early years as a breeder dog, she’s finally getting the chance to discover what it means to be loved and spoiled — and she’s absolutely thriving! This sweet girl adores snuggles and attention. She’s learning that laps and belly rubs are some of life’s best things, and she’ll gently nudge you when she’s ready for more love. Tsuki is potty trained, gets along wonderfully with other dogs and children, and is ready to be part of a family that will cherish her. She’s a bit vocal about her crate (she has opinions!), but she does settle in with a little patience and reassurance. Like many Shibas, Tsuki has a spirited personality paired with a gentle soul — she just wants to be near her people and enjoy a cozy, happy home. To no fault of her own Tsuki does have a grade one luxation patella and a grade two intermittent heart murmur both have been assessed by the vet team and will not need further care at this time and have not affected her ability to run around and enjoy life! If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will return your love tenfold, Tsuki is your girl.

🐾 Hi, I’m Sokka! 🐾I’m a 2-year-old Shiba Inu, and if you ask me, I’m a certified Good Boy — I even have the diploma to prove it! I’m proud of who I am: smart, curious, spirited, and always ready to learn something new.I’ve spent time in a foster home recently, and we’re learning even more about what helps me thrive. I love mental stimulation and being part of whatever’s going on. But when I get bored or left alone without enough to do, I may entertain myself by chewing things, exploring garbage, or finding other “creative” outlets. I’ve done fine alone for a couple hours when the house is picked up and there’s a little background noise, but I’ll need a family that’s home often and committed to keeping my mind active — even when they’re not in the room.Because I’m a Shiba through and through, once I’m comfortable in a home, I can be protective of things I find valuable (like food or treats). For that reason, I’ll do best as the only pet in an adult-only home where I don’t feel the need to guard anything. No cats for me, either — I grew up with them but ultimately couldn’t live safely with them.What I do excel with is consistency, structure, and routine. I’m independent but loyal, occasionally cheeky but incredibly bright. With clear expectations and lots of enrichment, I shine. I’m also house-trained, love being involved, and am known to be an excellent bed-snuggler.If you’re looking for a smart, devoted, slightly mischievous companion who will be your shadow and your project all in one, I might just be your guy. ❤️🎓 Come meet me and see why I’m a certified Good Boy! If you are interested in learning more or would like to set up a meet-and-greet please fill out an adoption application on our website: www.hsbcpets.com/adopt

Brody is a loving, smart dog with a heart of gold. Unfortunately we don't have the time anymore to keep up with a shiba inu's needs as they require close to full time attention and constant retraining.

Story
About Me: Name: Nakita Breed (or best guess): Shiba Inu Approximate Age: born 10/19/18 Gender: Female Approximate Weight: 35 lb Adoption Fee: $495 Requirements: Patient adopter, fenced yard and another dog is best Why In Rescue: puppy mill survivor Profile:   Nakita came from a commercial breeder/puppy farmer who was no longer going to use her for breeding.  Nakita gets along with other dogs her size and is learning to put her puppy mill days behind her.  She is curious and seeking attention from people.  She will need work on walking on a leash and on housetraining as she had never lived in a home.  If interested in Nakita or one of our other dogs, please fill out the pre-adoption application. Dogs from commercial breeders are generally undersocialized (often very scared/shy/skittish) and probably never lived in a house.  They will need to learn things like how to walk on a leash, go up stairs, and what things like a television are.  They need a patient adopter who will give them the time they need to adjust and to learn to trust people.  Every baby step forward needs to be celebrated, and the dog needs to be accepted for who they are at each step.  Some dogs can adjust quickly and learn how to be a loved pet pretty easily.  Others can take a long time to even be comfortable with things like walking through the house and being in the same room as a person.  No matter how far and how fast the breeder dogs progress, they are wonderful dogs and deserve a great home after their life on the puppy farm.  A fence or at least a secure fenced in potty area is highly recommended for the dog's safety, and may be required for some dogs.  Another small dog in the house can also help many former breeders adjust faster to life in a home, and also may be required in some cases.  We do put the needs of the dog's first, so it is nothing personal if we determine a particular dog isn't suitable for your specific home and living situation. If considering adopting a former breeding dog, the following article is good to read to help you understand the special needs these dogs may have.  http://nowisconsinpuppymills.com/mill-survivors.html If interested in adoption, the first step is filling out the pre-adoption application at http://www.bichonrescues.com/pre-adoption-form-dog  If link isn't clickable, please copy/paste or visit http://www.bichonrescues.com.  Please note, filling out inquiry forms on Petfinder or Adoptapet and/or their application forms does not constitute an application for one of our dogs.  Priority in responding to inquires and applications is always to the applications filled out on our website, time constraints limit the number of other inquires we can reply to. We do our best to evaluate the dogs while they are with us, but they sometimes act different in the shelter environment than they do in a home.  Many times we do not know the actual breed/mix or age of the dog, in that case we use our best guess as to breed and age.   We are located in Mukwonago, WI.  Adopters must come to us, we do not ship our dogs.  Please do not apply for a dog until you are ready to adopt.  Once an application is approved you will be notified by email to make an appointment to meet the dog.  All dogs are seen by appointment only. The adoption fee through Bichon and Little Buddies Rescue is $495 for most adults and up to $650 for puppies which includes Wi State Sales Tax.  Included in this fee is your new companion who will be spayed/neutered, have a current Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (as required by state law), current on age appropriate vaccinations, heartworm tested (if old enough) and started on preventative, microchipped, and given a general wormer.  Other medical needs will also have been taken care of, such as dentals and treating ear infections.  To assist you and your new pet in adjusting to life together, you may chose to take an 8 week age appropriate obedience training course at For Pet's Sake Dog Training in Mukwonago, WI for $100 (up to $260 value).  You may opt to take Puppy Kindergarten, Adult Beginners, or Small Dogs Big Hearts.  You must register for the class within 90 days of adoption for the reduced fee.  For more information on the classes visit www.forpetssake.cc  More important information: ***We are a Wisconsin based rescue and do not ship our pets.  If you are considering adoption you must be willing to drive to meet and adopt the pet, as well as bring the pet back to us if the adoption doesn't work.  We adopt primarily in WI and IL, but will consider applicants in MN, IA, and MI.*** ***Please do not set up an appointment to meet the animals until you are ready to take your pet home.  If the meeting results in a match, you can often take the dog/cat home the same day or within a couple days if the medical care hasn't been completed.  We are not able to hold pets for adopters beyond this time.  Thanks for understanding.*** ***While we hope all of our adoptions lead to permanent homes for the animals we place, sometimes things just don't work out.  We do have a 30 day trial period.  For the first 30 days, if you or Bichon and Little Buddies decide that the adoption isn't a good match for either the humans or the pet, the adoption fee will be refunded minus $100 within 30 days of the return of the dog.  Bichon and Little Buddies also requires adopters to return the pet to us at any time that they are unable or unwilling to care for the animal anymore.*** ***We do not show dogs without an appointment.  The first step in adoption is filling out the pre-adoption application at http://www.bichonrescues.com/pre-adoption-form-dog  Please do not call/email until AFTER you have filled out an application.*** Bichon and Little Buddies is a State Licensed Rescue # 268555-DS September 16, 2025, 7:58 pm

Story
Now, wait just a minute! Don't just scroll over me - puh-leas. I'm Tohru and I've been a hardwork'n mama for my whole life! I came to Fetch with a bellyful of pups and their baby daddy. Guess who birthed them? Raised them? Got bitten, chased, harassed and kept up at night by those little goblins? Me! And they all got adopted before me,(even their dad!) I'm finally experiencing some piece and quiet, but I want a home of my own. Let me give you the run down. I'm sweet and love to be pet. I want to be in the room with you and see what your up to. I don't need constant attention, I'm a Shiba after all. I do enjoy an occasional cheese or biscuit. I. Love. Toys. I like to shake them and rip them and make them squeak for mercy! I like tug toys too. I'm potty trained and kennel trained. Cats are fine, dogs are fine, but I could be okay by myself. I think. Pretty good right? Now, I'll admit, I have some flaws. I don't like leashes. I'll let you know if there is stranger danger. I don't like things that beep and boop. I'll tell your coffee maker, oven timer and fire alarm to shut it. Same for dogs barking in movies. Most days I'm content to quietly pace around the house, but sometimes ... I burst. Everything gets a barked at. The squirrels, and that leaf, your ancestors. I just have to let my feelings be known! I'm working on it, I promise, but venting is the only way for me to work through it right now. My fosters put me in my pen when I get overwhelmed and it normally helps. Phew. Sorry. That seemed like a lot, but honestly I'm a really good girl! I just need some of the tender loving care that I've been dooling out so long. You can apply for me at: https://www.fetchfosterandrescue.com/adopt Name: Tohru D.O.B: 5/12/20 Breed: Shiba Inu Sex: Female Weight: 30 lbs Altered: Yes Adoption: 400 Good with Cats: Yes, I like to smell their butts! Good with Dogs: Yes, they are fine. Good with Kids: I've been good with those I've met! Special Requirements: Fenced in yard *Positive reinforcement obedience training is a great way to bond with your new family member. It can also help set up a relationship with greater odds of success integrating your new pet into your family. Anyone who provides proof of completed positive reinforcement training will receive a 100 dollar refund from Fetch Foster and Rescue Inc! If you have questions or are wondering if the class you want to take qualifies please reach out! ♥ **This dog was rescued from a breeding situation. Every dog is different, but here is some information on what bringing a breeder dog into your home can be like and some supports they may need to transition into their new life! While it can be challenging at first, it is incredibly rewarding to see these dogs grow and come out of their shells. Please give them a chance if you are able! https://resources.bestfriends.org/article/puppy-mill-rescue-dogs-transition-home-life Fetch Foster and Rescue Inc is a 501c3 non-profit organization ##2465530##
