My name is Fawn and I’m looking for my forever home. I’m almost 1 y.o. and weigh 21 lbs. I came to my foster home here in Jonesburg, MO, from a commercial breeding facility where I was born. I am a goofy and confident puppy – friendly and affectionate. I follow my foster parents around to get attention and I am friendly with other dogs too. I’m such a smart girl that I have been helping teach some newer, shy foster dogs how to play and trust humans. I love, love, love to play – with other dogs, with toys and with my foster mom and dad. I have lots of energy and will go all day long if I can. I am learning how to walk on a leash and so far I’m doing well practicing in the fenced yard. Foster mom thinks that I’d enjoy exploring a neighborhood with my forever person. My perfect forever home would be in an active household. Older kids would be fine, but I’m still a nippy puppy when I’m playing or want attention, so I’m not a good match for little kids. I am good with cats. My forever family should be careful around open doors or gates since Shibas can be escape artists. I am a healthy girl – spayed and up-to-date on vaccinations. If you live in the Midwest and want a playful, happy, friendly, girl like me to be your very best friend, visit www.savingshibas.com/adopt to apply to become an approved SIRA adopter. The application process helps SIRA get to know you and your home environment so they can make sure we’ll be a good match. Once approved, they will connect you with my foster mom so we can meet! I can’t wait!
