Here's what the humans have to say about me:
My name is Kyro and I’m looking for my forever home. Are you looking for a handsome, happy, energetic and affectionate boy to be your one-and-only? You found him! I’m 4 years old and I weigh 26 lbs. I came to my foster home here in Jonesburg, MO, from a commercial breeding facility. SIRA rescued me when the breeder closed down. I’m adapting well to my new life. Foster mom says I’m a classic Shiba – full of spunk and sass and stubbornness. I mean, sure, I have opinions and am not afraid to express them. But I’m friendly and goofy and loveable too. I love to play with toys in the yard and run around. Foster mom is teaching me to fetch! I get along with other dogs, but I’m selective about some of the other males. If I get the wrong vibe from one of them, I might react first rather than wait to assess the situation. So foster mom thinks I’d really thrive as an only dog – with humans to play with and go on adventures with and be the center of attention. I’d do best in a home with no small kids, since I can be a bit jumpy and skittish of unexpected movements and noises. I’d love it if my forever home had a fenced yard where I could run and play, but it’s okay if you don’t. I like the idea of going on leash walks. I’ve been practicing with foster mom in the yard and she says I’m doing great. There are cats here in my foster home and sometimes I chase them. I’m not trying to eat them, but they don’t seem to like being chased. I’m a healthy boy – neutered and vaccinated and house trained. If you live in the Midwest and want a sassy sesame boy like me to be your best friend forever, visit www.savingshibas.com/adopt to become an approved SIRA adopter. The application process helps SIRA learn more about you and your home environment so they can tell if we’ll be a good match. Once approved, they’ll introduce you to my foster mom so we can meet! I’m ready!
