My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Isamu (ee-sah-moo), which means "courage or bravery", is a 1-2 year old neutered male Shiba Inu, possibly mixed with Basenji, that came to us from a high kill shelter in Kansas City Missouri. Isa is a very energetic boy and is looking for a forever home that can give him the same amounts of energy and affection that he can give back.

Isamu is good in his crate and is currently walked for most of his potty breaks so he would be a good candidate for apartment living. Should he be adopted to a home with a yard, he needs at least a 6 foot wood privacy fence, if not HIGHER, as he can get over 5 foot fences.

Isamu is good with people and older children (we have not had the opportunity to have him around small children but do believe he would do well). However Isa is not good with most other dogs and would do best as the only dog in the home. The only dog he seems to ignore and do well with is the director's female Shih tzu. Because of these lacking social skills, Isa also should be kept at a distance from other dogs when on leash as he will lunge out at other dogs. His foster dad is working on giving him very high value treats whenever Isa looks at a dog without reacting and gives his foster dad eye contact instead. Isa is also not good with cats or small animals.

Isamu's adoption fee is $300 which includes his neuter, microchip, deworming, distemper and rabies vaccinations, and he will receive a professional training course following his adoption.
