Here's what the humans have to say about me:
My name is Danny and I’m looking for my forever home. I’m a young guy – just 1 yr. old – and I weigh 30 lbs. I’m a playful boy and I came to my foster home in Smithville, MO, from a commercial breeding facility where I was born. There are other dogs who live here – both older girls – and I love to play with them. Foster mom says that they’re doing a great job of teaching me manners. I haven’t been around other male dogs and I haven’t met any cats, but I love to chase the birds, bunnies and squirrels in the fenced yard here. There are human kids who live here (ages 5 to 7 ½) and I’m good with them. I’m a bit cautious, but interested. I like it when they pet me! I’m a smart boy and a very good boy. I’m learning how to walk on a leash and I get excited when I hear “let’s go for walkies!” I am house trained and not destructive. My foster family trusts me to have free run of the house while they’re gone with no problems. I love pretty much everything about my new life. Except thunderstorms and fireworks. They scare me! The things I like best are chewing on my toys, running laps and chasing critters in the yard, cuddling with the other dogs who live here, and pestering the humans to pet me! I’m a goofball and foster mom says I’m an entertainer. She caught me recently doing an interpretive dance to entertain one of my resident dog friends when she was in her crate. My perfect forever family will have at least one other nice dog in the house so that I can continue to learn and thrive. Because of my natural prey drive, cats and other small pets are not recommended. If you have experience with shy dogs, that would be great and you’ll need to understand how to guard against escapes, since I love to run and chase outside. I am a healthy boy - neutered and vaccinated. If you live in the Midwest and want to add a happy, playful, good boy to your family, visit www.savingshibas.com/adopt to become an approved SIRA adopter. The approval process helps SIRA learn about you and your home environment so they can tell if we’ll be a good match. Once approved, they’ll connect you with my foster family so we can meet. I can’t wait!
