Hitachi's Story
Name: Hitachi (but my friends call me Hibachi because I'm spicy).<br/><br/> <br/><br/>Age: Around 2.<br/><br/>Occupation: Professional treat thief. Backyard explorer. Full-time cuddle enthusiast.<br/><br/>About me:<br/><br/>I'm a 62-pound Korean Jindo/German Shepherd mix...I think. That's what my foster mom said, which means I'm not exactly your typical dog.<br/><br/>Think less “golden retriever at a frat party” and more “mysterious introvert who sits in the corner judging everyone until I decide you're cool.”<br/><br/>I'm independent, intelligent, and a little complicated.<br/><br/>Fast movements? Hard pass. It makes me jump<br/><br/>Yelling? Absolutely not. I'll retreat to my safe space <br/><br/>Positive reinforcement and a calm, patient approach? Now we're speaking the same language.<br/><br/>I don't fall in love on the first date. Honestly, I probably won't even make eye contact.<br/><br/>I need a week or two to decide whether you're trustworthy. But once you're in my circle?<br/><br/>Game over.<br/><br/>I'll become your shadow, your cuddle buddy, and your favorite little weirdo.<br/><br/>My interests include:<br/><br/><br/> Sunbathing<br/> Exploring the backyard<br/> Breaking into the treat bin (I take treats so gentle)<br/> Random bursts of zoomies<br/> Pressing my entire body against my human while we relax<br/><br/><br/>Things you should know before we become exclusive:<br/><br/><br/> I love kids.<br/> I like dogs my size or bigger.<br/> Cats and small dogs aren't my thing. (Nothing personal. It's me, not you. I view them as prey)<br/> My kennel is my safe space.<br/> I know sit, shake, touch, come, wait, and down.<br/> I don't like to be the center of the party, when the focus isn't fully on me. I do relax more. <br/><br/><br/>Fun fact:<br/><br/>I had Lyme disease, and although my treatment is complete, my back legs are still a little stiff. I take pain medication to help! Long walks on the beach aren't really my thing. <br/><br/>Instead of running like everyone else, I bounce.<br/><br/>Literally.<br/><br/>Bong. Bong. Bong.<br/><br/>People say I look like a bunny, and honestly, I'm not mad about it.<br/><br/>My baggage (because honesty matters):<br/><br/>I have pretty significant separation anxiety (a man who can admit his fault), and I'm especially nervous around men. I can't remember but I think I was hurt by them. <br/><br/>I've clearly been through some things. I have growled at men but it's because I'm scared. Just ignore me and I'll ignore you. <br/><br/>I'm currently taking medication that helps me feel safe and comfortable, and I'm doing really well.<br/><br/>Looking for:<br/><br/>A patient human. Like really, really, really patient. Bonus points if you're a woman with a calm home, a soft couch, and a fully secured treat container.<br/><br/>Someone who understands that trust isn't instant and that the best relationships take time.<br/><br/>If you're looking for an easy dog, keep scrolling.<br/><br/>If you're looking for a fiercely loyal best friend who's equal parts sweetheart, comedian, and tiny woodland creature trapped inside a 62-pound body...<br/><br/>Swipe right and let's chat <br/><br/>son—not because I have trust issues... okay, maybe it's both.

About me:

Think less “golden retriever at a frat party” and more “mysterious introvert who sits in the corner judging everyone until I decide you're cool.”
I'm independent, intelligent, and a little complicated.
Fast movements? Hard pass. It makes me jump
Yelling? Absolutely not. I'll retreat to my safe space
Positive reinforcement and a calm, patient approach? Now we're speaking the same language.
I don't fall in love on the first date. Honestly, I probably won't even make eye contact.
I need a week or two to decide whether you're trustworthy. But once you're in my circle?
Game over.
I'll become you
