Story
Hello, I would like you to meet Oakley. An almost 7 year old pure bred Shiba Inu with TONS of personality. He loves sniffing around the yard and attempting to catch birds/squirrels, but is hopeless at catching or retrieving toys however loves to pretend he will when you throw it. He is highly active and will need to be taken on regular walks, thankfully I have almost never had to trim his nails because he wears them down outdoors perfectly. He does shed quite a bit as all Shiba Inu's do, and is aggressive towards most dogs, we haven't attempted cats yet. He was raised in a in home daycare so is great with kids as long as he's not riled up and excited (he play bites/nips at your clothes when he gets the zoomies). He's an escape artist so you will need a privacy fence and watch out for him digging holes to escape from. He's a great dog but doesn't get along with 2 of our other rescues and we have a baby on the way. I cant be stressed about separating dogs & its not fair to him.
