My personality

My story

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

My name is Foxy and I’m looking for my forever home. I’m 8-years old and a petite girl, weighing around 14 lbs. I came to my foster home here in Oak Park, IL after making puppies at a commercial breeding facility. So living in a home is a totally new thing for me, but I'm a very good girl and I've been on my very best behavior. I don’t have accidents or make any trouble. My foster mom says that I’m very sweet and easy to live with. I’m even learning to walk on a leash! I’m pretty shy and reserved, so I tend to keep to myself. I am good with other dogs and with humans, but don’t seek out attention or companionship. I’m still pretty skittish and cautious, but don’t let my small size or reserved nature fool you. I’m curious and want to explore! In fact, my forever home will want to keep a close eye on me because I am fast and might make a run for it if a gate or door is left open. I haven’t met any little kids yet or lived with cats, so I don’t know what I think of them. I think I’d do just fine as an only dog, or with another nice laid-back dog. My needs are pretty simple. I’d love to be with a kind, patient human who understands that I’m still learning that humans can be trusted and all about the outside world. I’d love a securely fenced yard and a soft place to snooze and some nice soft food to eat (my teeth aren’t the best for hard food). I’m healthy, spayed and up-to-date on vaccinations. If you live in the Midwest and would like to share your world with a quiet, shy, sweet girl like me, visit www.savingshibas.com/adopt to start the approval process. Applying helps SIRA learn more about you and your home environment so they can make sure we’ll be a good match. Once approved, they’ll introduce you to my foster mom so we can meet!
