Shiba Inu (Short Coat)
Description:
TADASHI - 7 yrs 11 months old, 24 pounds, house trained, good with kids, no cats, rough with/growls at other dogs, chronic skin issues Tadashi is a little guy brought in after his family, the only one he's known, could no longer financially support him and his skin allergies. He is a cute little pup with lots and lots of fur missing due to chronic skin allergies. He requires regular baths and medicine. He can be trusted to roam free when with you and when left alone. Tadashi is sweet and cuddly but when his allergies are bothering him, he can become irritated and uncomfortable. This smart boy knows lots of commands including but not limited to sit, down, and cage. I bet he would love to learn more! This training (and the time you spend together) will help you bond with your new pup, too. He enjoys tug toys. Tadashi has escaped only once from his previous yard as he was small enough to crawl under the gate. He is afraid of thunder (who isn't?!?) and might bark and hide during thunderstorms. Tadashi is very quiet in the kennel. I saw a whole new dog when we went outside. He ran and ran, all around me, in circles even. I offered a treat (he came to me for...) so I thought it safe to take the leash off. Wrong. LOL After he ran the perimeter, sniffing and checking things out, he decided he didn't want to come back to me to leave. He ran around me, teasing me, getting just close enough for me to miss when I tossed my leash as a lasso. I finally got some help from a staff member who luckily is a good lasso and was able to get him. Sneaky little bugger! Tadashi will need time to get used to a new family, home and routine. He is not a fan of lots of handling until he knows you and trusts you. He was put in a cone when he went to the vet bc of the vet's need to handle him. If you have the patience and the willingness to give Tadashi space and, at the same time, attention, come on in to meet him! Please remember his chronic skin allergies will require his new family to be financially able. We can give you all the information, just ask. Tadashi is currently in our small dog kennel! Come by to meet him today!
