🐾 MY RESCUE STORY 🐾

I’m not sure how I ended up all alone in the city pound, but I was placed on the euthanasia list simply because there wasn’t enough space for dogs like me. Despite that scary chapter, I never lost my gentle, loving heart—and now I’m just hoping to find the forever family who will give me the safe, happy life I’ve been waiting for.

 

🩺 MY HEALTH 🩺

• All vaccinations up-to-date
• Neutered & healthy with no known health issues
• I had to undergo surgery to remove my right eye, but my left eye has good vision and no issues.

 

💖 MY PERSONALITY 💖

Hi! I’m Miller. I’m not sure how my right eye got injured, but when I was rescued, it was in a very bad shape and I needed surgery to have it removed. Even with just my left eye, I don’t let it slow me down or dampen my spirit! I’m a sweet, gentle boy who truly loves people. I’m naturally a little shy at first, but with patience I warm up—and volunteers and staff can always see that I want to interact, even if I hesitate in the beginning. I’m getting braver every day, learning to trust more, and showing more of my affectionate, friendly side as I grow confident.

 

🐶 MY SOCIAL SKILLS 🐶

· With People: I can be shy in the beginning, but I’ll gently take treats from your hand. After I warm up, I’m comfortable with pets and gentle affection. Once trust is established, I can be picked up. I’m a sweet boy who enjoys people, and as I grow more confident and settled in my new home, I’ll become a loyal shadow.

· With Dogs: I’m pretty indifferent with other dogs. I can get overwhelmed by high-energy pups and prefer to do my own thing, calmly observing the environment. If another dog is rude or pushy, I simply walk away from the drama and avoid conflict.

·With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown. A cat test can be arranged upon request to find the best match!

 

⚡️ ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY ⚡️

I have a moderate energy level—I enjoy spending time outdoors, but I’m just as happy to snuggle up indoors afterward.

 

🧠 TRAINING & HABITS 🧠

I walk well on leash and follow my handler’s lead nicely. I don’t guard my food around people or other dogs—in fact, I have a big appetite and love treats, so I’m eager to please and learn. I’m confident I’ll pick up training quickly. I’m very quiet and rarely bark, and I know how to rest calmly in my kennel. I do struggle with car rides, as I can get motion sickness. I potty both indoors (on pee pads) and outdoors, though I may mark a little when I’m adjusting to a new environment.

 

🏡 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 and continue to provide me with basic training and socialization.
• A family that enjoys outdoor & indoor time together.
• A family that will love and cherish me forever.
• Ideally, a family experienced with Shibas and primitive breeds.
• The only dog in the household.

 

💌 SPECIAL NOTES 💌

Don’t let my shyness fool you—I’m a sweet boy who really does like people. I just need a little time at first to show my affectionate side. I’m improving every day, and I’m confident that in a loving home I’ll fully come out of my shell and express myself. I wag my tail and show interest in people, even if I hesitate at the start. I love treats and I’m very food-motivated, so I’m eager to learn and please.

I’m considered to be a level 3 rescue dog, meaning I will take at least a week to open up and feel more settled in a new environment. I must wear my martingale collar at all times and double-leashed to my harness and collar with a GPS tracker when outside to keep me safe.
