Story
My name is Konai and I’m looking for my forever home. I am a snuggly, sweet boy. My “must haves” are a family who will keep regular 6-month vet check-ups and prescription diet so I’ll stay healthy. I’m 8 years old and I came to SIRA from a commercial breeding facility where I helped make puppies. I love this life so much better! I can’t wait to have a forever family of my very own! I love snuggling with my foster mom. I get so excited when she comes home that I jump and spin like crazy. Can you blame me? She gives me such wonderful pets and scritches and walks and treats! I give her kisses in return. She says I’m her cuddle bug. When foster mom is home, I like to follow her around so I know where she is. I guess I’m not fond of being alone. I love other dogs. When I see a dog outside on our walk I’ll cry with excitement. There are girl dogs here in my foster home and I get along well with them. I like playing with them and hanging out. I’d love to have a nice dog friend in my forever home, but foster mom says I’d probably do okay as an “only dog” as long as my family is home a lot so I don’t get lonely. I also love going for walks – I like exploring the neighborhood even more than playing in the yard, so I’m fine if my forever family doesn’t have a fence. I like playing with toys, but I still have no clue what to do when foster mom tosses one at me. When I’m not following foster mom around or playing, my favorite things are treats and taking naps. Foster mom says I need to warn you that I snore like a bear. Hrmph! I DO NOT! (Wait, what’s a bear?) I also like rolling around on freshly mopped floors so I can smell clean like the Swiffer spray. Yeah, I’m goofy. Anyway, when I first came to SIRA, my foster family could tell that something wasn’t right. After lots of visits to the vet, they discovered that I had tumors in my colon and I had to have emergency surgery! That was scary and not fun at all. If you follow SIRA’s Facebook page, you may have seen my story. Well, I’m healed now from my surgery and foster mom says that I’m ready for my forever family! Because of my surgery, I’ll need to stay on a prescription diet and treats. I’ll also need to have an ultrasound exam every 6 months to make sure that no new tumors grow back. I’ve never lived with any little humans, but foster mom thinks that I’d be okay with them. I haven’t met any cats or small pets, but I love to chase and hunt critters in the yard, so I’m not sure how I would do with small pets. I’m neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations and I weigh 28 pounds. If you live in the Midwest and would love a sweet, silly snuggle-buddy to share your home with, then I’m your boy! Visit www.savingshibas.com/adopt to start the process of becoming an approved adopter with SIRA. 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, SIRA will introduce you to my foster mom so we can meet.

Story
I'm Drake and I’m looking for my forever home. I’m 5 y.o. and weigh 30 lbs. Are you looking for a walking or hiking buddy? I’m your guy! I came to my foster home here in Montgomery, IL, from a commercial breeding facility where I used to help make puppies. This is my first time living in a home with people and there is so much to get used to. So far, my favorite things are going for walks and exploring outside. And the good food! I like it when foster mom gives me neck scritches. Loud noises still spook me. I have learned to trust foster mom, but I still get skittish around new people and places. I’m super-smart and a very good boy. I solved my first food puzzle in less than a minute, and I’ve only had 2 potty accidents the whole time I’ve lived here! I’m pretty quiet. I only bark when I’m excited (like when I want to play) and I squeal when I’m startled. I’m independent – I usually hang out by myself. But I’ll run to foster mom for comfort if there’s a thunderstorm – or if I’m hungry or thirsty. I get along with the animals who live here. Sometimes I worry that they might hog foster mom’s attention, so I’ll push them out of the way. Sometimes I guard high-value treats and food, so foster mom recommends separating me when I’m given something really yummy. I like to chase critters outside, so I might not be good with small pets. My perfect forever home would be patient and calm with humans who like walks. It would be great to have a laid-back dog to show me the ropes. It might take a while to warm up, but I like watching them and copying what they do. Little kids are not a good match for me (so scary!). I’m a healthy boy – neutered and vaccinated. I have something called a luxating patella. That means I have a loose kneecap. It doesn’t cause any problems now, but if it does in the future, surgery might be needed. If you live in the Midwest and want a buddy to explore the great outdoors with, visit www.savingshibas.com/adopt to apply to become an approved SIRA adopter. The application process helps SIRA learn more about you and your home environment to see if we’ll be a good match. Once approved, they’ll introduce you to my foster home so we can meet.

Story
My name is Franklin and I’m ADORABLE! I’m also looking for my forever home. I’m just a baby – not even 1 y.o., but some things I know: I’m smart, curious, energetic, vocal, stubborn and I love to be with people! I weigh 14 lbs now and I live with my foster family in central, IL. I’m not skittish - I’m a typical crazy Shiba puppy with lots of energy and opinions. I have a high prey drive and I love chasing rabbits in the fenced yard. I love playing with toys and going for walks and sniffing everything. I’m learning to walk politely on leash and not zig-zag or get too excited when I see people and dogs. Since I’m young, my forever home will need to commit to continuing training so I can become a well-mannered adult. Foster mom says that I love the sound of my own voice. I guess that’s a nice way of saying that I can be loud. I’m not a fan of being left alone and when foster mom puts me in my crate I throw a little tantrum until I tucker myself out. (Have you heard a Shiba scream? Google it.) Because I’m vocal, living in an apartment or home that shares walls is not ideal. I’d love a forever family where the people will play with me and keep me company. I’d get along with another active dog, and I would love a friend to play with. I do well with the teenagers who live here, but I might be too loud and rambunctious for small kids. Did I mention that I’m smart?! Foster mom says I’m a quick learner when treats are involved. I'm getting the hang of potty training and it only took one treat for me to learn “sit!” And I know how to wait at the door until foster mom says I can go outside. I haven’t been around cats or small pets, but with my high prey drive, it's likely not a good match. I am a healthy boy – vaccinated and neutered. I was born with a grade 4 heart murmur, caused by a VSD (small hole in my heart). The vet told my foster mom that it shouldn’t prevent an active, happy and long life, but I will need regular follow ups with a veterinary cardiologist for monitoring. If you live in the Midwest and want to be my 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 tell if we’ll be a good match. Once approved, they'll connect you with my foster mom so we can meet!

Story
My name is Thema, and I’m looking for my forever home! I’m 2 y.o. and weigh 25 lbs. I came to my foster home here in Oak Park, IL, from a commercial breeding facility, where humans were scary! But I am learning to trust and enjoy living here! Loud noises and sudden movements still spook me. I'm shyl, but my foster parents have been kind and patient, so I'm starting to relax and show my true personality. I love exploring the fenced yard with my foster fur-sister and I am learning to enjoy leash walks in the neighborhood. I sometimes tug a bit and try to dash after the critters we see outside. Indoors, I’m a good girl! I am potty trained and not at all destructive or loud. I don’t climb on the furniture, but I have my favorite spot in front of the sofa where I hang out. I’m not quite brave enough to approach my foster parents on my own, but I like it when they give me treats and I’m learning that belly rubs and head scritches feel so good! I’m good with other dogs – cautious at first and respectful of their space. I don’t try to interact with dogs we meet on walks. I’ve never lived with cats or other small pets before, so I’m not sure if I’d be good with them or want to chase them. My perfect forever home would be a calm, quiet one with a friendly, laid-back resident dog to help me learn the ropes. The humans should be patient and understand that it will take time for me to learn to trust them. If you have experience with fearful dogs, that would help. Older human kids would be fine as long as they are gentle. No small kids - they are a bit too much for me. My forever family will need to be very careful around open doors and/or gates, since I have a typical Shiba Inu instinct to bolt and am very fast. It will be important to have a good escape prevention system in place, especially as I’m adjusting to a new home. I am a healthy girl. I’m spayed and up-to-date on vaccinations. If you live in the Midwest and want sweet, shy girl like me in your family, visit www.savingshibas.com/adopt to apply to become an approved SIRA adopter. The application process helps SIRA ensure we'll be a good match. Once approved, SIRA will introduce you to my foster mom so we can meet!
