Fido

My name is Fido and I’m looking for my forever home. I’m a pretty 6 year-old girl, weighing 25 lbs. I came to my foster home in Jonesburg, MO, after the commercial breeding facility where I lived shut down. I came with a group of dogs and we were all terrified! You see, where we came from, humans weren’t so nice. But the humans here are kind, so I’ve been getting braver. I used to cower in the corner when my foster family was nearby. But now I don’t even run away when they approach me. I shine when I’m with other dogs, and there are lots here. Watching them play has helped me relax and feel safer. I’m still pretty skittish, especially around loud noises and sudden movements, but I’m starting to let my silly side show – at least when I think the humans aren’t watching. I’m still fearful of going out in the yard on my own, so my foster parents carry me outside. We’ve practiced leash walking, but I’m just not comfortable and may never be. But I’m a good girl, and healthy too. I’m potty trained, spayed and vaccinated. I don’t make noise or cause trouble. When I’m inside, I’ll hang out in my kennel on my own. I get along well all the other dogs and I don't bother the cats. I’ve never met any human kids, but I’m pretty sure I’d be terrified of them. My perfect forever home will be with a patient family who has experience with shy/fearful dogs. I’ll need a securely fenced yard and another nice dog (or more) to help me feel safe. My forever family should know how to prevent escapes, since when I’m spooked, I might try to bolt. I’d do best in a quiet, adults-only home with no shared walls with other families, since I’m so easily scared. That would be so awesome! If you live in the Midwest and could open your home and heart to a sweet, shy girl like me, visit www.savingshibas.com/adopt to apply to become an approved SIRA adopter. The application process helps SIRA learn about you and your home so they can tell if we’d be a good match. Once approved, they’ll connect you with my foster mom so we can meet.
