🐾 MY RESCUE STORY 🐾

I’m not sure how I ended up abandoned at the city pound, suddenly on my own and trying my best to cope. Because the shelter was overcrowded, I was placed on the euthanasia list. Thankfully I was rescued just in time, and now I’m ready to find a forever family who will love and protect me.

💖 MY PERSONALITY 💖

Hi! I’m Siho. I’m an adorable little guy with all the classic shiba charm—from my fox-like looks to my expressive personality. I’m super social with people and enjoy hanging out with my dog friends too. Like a true shiba, I’m very clear about what I want, I occasionally let out my iconic “shiba screams,” and I flash my cute squinty shiba smile whenever I’m happy. I’m full of character in the best way!

 

🐶 MY SOCIAL SKILLS 🐶

· With People: I’m very friendly with people and love soaking up attention. I’ll even roll over for belly rubs right away—complete with my signature shiba smile. You can pick me up, too! I haven’t had much experience around kids yet, but with my sweet nature, I could do well with slow, mindful introductions and dog-savvy children. I can get a bit mouthy when I play (classic young shiba energy!), so I’ll need some basic obedience training to help me learn good manners and manage my excitement.

· With Dogs: I’m social with my dog friends too! I love greeting new dogs and jumping into play, especially with pups around my own size. I’m still learning proper doggy manners though—I can be a little pushy at times (e.g. mounting), and I don’t always pick up on social cues right away. If another dog corrects me, I let out a dramatic shiba scream and act like the world is ending. I stay true to the dramatic shiba side. But underneath my goofy side, I truly want to make friends. With continued guidance, structure, and thoughtful introductions, I’ll keep growing into a well-mannered and confident playmate.

· With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown, so I’m not sure how I’d behave just yet. A cat test can be arranged upon request to help find the best match!

 

⚡️ ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY ⚡️

I have a high energy level. I need lots of outdoor time and exhaust my energy before settling nicely indoors.

 

🧠 TRAINING & HABITS 🧠

I can pull a bit, but overall I walk well on leash. I don’t guard my food against people or other dogs. I may bark for attention and can bark at strangers at first, but I settle with time and guidance. I’m still learning to relax in my kennel and might whine in the beginning. I potty both indoors (on a pee pad) and outdoors, and I may mark when I’m in a new environment until I feel fully settled.

 

🏡 MY IDEAL HOME 🏡

I’m searching for a patient, loving family who can help me become the best version of myself. I’ll thrive in a home with:

• A family that will provide me with a safe haven – where I can decompress, be myself, and a stable environment.
• A family that understands my rough past and is patient with me throughout.
• A family that enjoys outdoor & indoor time together.
• A family that will love and cherish me forever.
• Ideally, a family experienced with Shibas or primitive breeds who understands my typical Shiba traits and can continue my basic training.

 

💌 SPECIAL NOTES 💌

I’m a classic Shiba through and through—adorable, expressive, and full of personality! I can be a little dramatic, a little opinionated, and very clear about what I want, so I’ll thrive with a family who understands Shiba quirks and can guide me with patience and consistency. I’m still learning manners like calmer greetings, managing my excitement, and reading dog social cues, but I’m eager to learn with the right guidance. With a confident, Shiba-savvy family by my side, I know I’ll blossom into the funniest, most loving companion.
