My story

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

Hi everyone, my name is now Hope. My name is a Fourth of July/ Freedom theme, which is what our Country has given so many people. I am an 8-year-old red female Shiba Inu who was just rescued from an Arkansas breeding facility with 8 other Shiba Inu. I was nervous about this new life and all the strange sights and sounds. Feeling the grass under my feet gave me hope for a better life. I pranced on the grass and explored the yard at Shiba HQ. I lived my whole life in a 4 x 6 run, so this new world can be a bit scary. Luckily, I got to go to a foster home with another Shiba Inu, DC SIR alum, Shiloh, who was also rescued from a large Midwest breeding facility last year. My foster parents think I am even more confident than Shiloh! I warmed up quickly to my foster pawrents and sisfur and I love to run around and explore all the new things! I am still being potty trained, but I will catch on to this quickly! I still need to be spayed, and I will also need to have dental work, so make sure to wish me luck for a safe and speedy surgery! I think you will be able to see how happy I am in my videos. DC SIR said I was great at body handling during my shower! I didn’t even mind having my nails trimmed, but I wasn’t that excited about it either. I know my foster pawrents need a few items to help me adjust to my new life, so they have an Amazon Wish List just for me! If you could help send me a couple of goodies I promise to dance and prance for you in a video! Location: Extended
