Eclipse's Story

Eclipse / F / 3Y / 20lbs / Shiba Inu mix / Fostered in Owen Sound<br/><br/>Eclipse is a cuddly, playful, VERY smart girl who looks and acts like a little fox. She'll toss a toy herself and pounce on it again and again, and she'll happily zoom in circles around the backyard. Her favourite toys are the cat toys, and she loves bush walks and playing with her foster sister.<br/><br/>Eclipse is working on generalized anxiety and fear. Once she's settled at home, she's perfect. New people and new places are scary for her, and she can get overstimulated easily. She takes a WHILE to trust you, but once she does, it's the most wonderful love you can receive. She is currently receiving daily fluoxetine and trazodone to help with her anxiety.<br/><br/> Energy: High. She does 1-2 walks a day (30-45 min) plus lots of playtime, and would love to be someone's running partner!<br/> Crate trained and housetrained<br/> Does well on leash and is great on walks<br/> Fine alone in her crate for 8-9 hours, with no separation anxiety<br/> Good with dogs and cats, but can be a lot at first. She's still learning to read cues and doesn't always respect personal space.<br/> Car rides: She panics if she doesn't know where she's going, but she's much calmer heading home, and she's improving all the time!<br/><br/>What she's working on:<br/> Confidence in new situations and around new people. At home, she hides at first when someone new visits, but will come out to investigate. If you ignore her, she's much more willing to say hi.<br/> Recall. She is a flight risk in new spaces, so secure fencing and careful management are a must.<br/> Resource guarding. She guarded a high-value bone once, was easily corrected, and hasn't done it since.<br/><br/>Her ideal home: A quiet home with 1-2 main people and no kids. A tolerant, playful dog to match her energy would be a bonus, but she'd also do well as an only dog. Her person will be patient, committed to building her confidence, and experienced with flight-risk dogs.<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting Eclipse, please complete an adoption application on our website.
