Juno's Story

My name is Juno and I’m looking for my forever home. I’m 5 y.o. and weigh 35 lbs. I came to my foster home in Joliet, IL, because my owner had to go to a nursing home. I was sad and confused, but my foster mom promised me that everything was going to be okay! You see, I’m a big teddy bear. I love attention from my humans and want to be wherever they are. I love scritches and scratches and treats too! Some things I DO NOT love are baths and crates and gates that keep me from going where I want to go. Luckily, I’m a very good boy when I’m left alone. Foster mom learned that I can be trusted and won’t be destructive. But fair warning, I might counter surf if yummy food is left where I can reach. Are you looking for a walking buddy? Cause I am ready to GO, GO, GO! I sometimes pull a bit on the leash (especially if I see a critter). Yes, I have a high prey drive, so my foster mom says that my forever home should not have cats or small pets. There are other dogs in my foster home and I am pretty good with them. I play rough, and can get possessive if there are food/treats/toys involved, but otherwise I’m a calm and sweet boy. Foster mom thinks I’d do well as an only dog or in a multi-dog home if my forever family knows how to avoid resource guarding. You will also need to be very careful to prevent escapes, since I’m fast and slippery when I spot an open door or gate. I’d love a fenced yard, but regular leash walks are fine too. I’d do best in a home with no shared walls and no small kids. I’m a healthy boy – neutered and vaccinated. I have allergies and my skin was a mess when SIRA rescued me. But it's under control now with daily oral medication and I feel so much better! If you live in the Midwest and are looking for your very own handsome teddy bear, then here I am! Visit www.savingshibas.com/adopt for more information and to apply to become an approved SIRA adopter. The application process helps SIRA get to know you so they can make sure we’ll be a good match. Once approved, SIRA will connect you with my foster mom so we can meet!

Shiba Inu Rescue Association's Adoption Policy
So you've seen the beautiful, headstrong breed known as the Shiba Inu. You've researched the breed's characteristics and examined your living situation and decided you are ready to open your home to a Shiba Inu. Here is a brief summary of SIRA's adoption process. For more detailed information please visit our website: www.savingshibas.com/adopt. The best first step if you live in the midwest and are considering adopting from SIRA is to visit our webiste and read through the adoption policies and procedures. Then you can complete our online application to become approved as an adopter. Once you have completed your application, you will receive a confirmation receipt from Google Form. Depending on how many applications we're processing, it may take several days before you hear back. If you have questions about the status of your application, please email adoptsirashibas@gmail.com. The application forms help us learn more about you and your home environment so we can identify any potential challenges and match you with available dogs who will thrive in your home. Once your application is reviewed, our Applicant Approval Coordinator will get in touch with you about scheduling a home visit with a SIRA volunteer in your area. After your home visit is completed and approved you will be able to meet available foster dogs! For questions about the adoption process please send an email adoptsirashibas@gmail.com. SIRA depends on foster families as a critical part of our operation. Foster homes help a newly rescued dog adjust to living in a home environment. They work with SIRA to address any medical needs that the dog may have (including spay/neuter) and nurture and socialize the dog to prepare him/her for adoption. Foster families have the right to adopt their foster dog and participate in the process of approving adoption matches. If you're interested in learning more about becoming a foster home, visit www.savingshibas.com/foster or email fostersirashibas@gmail.com.
