Lumi

My name is Lumi and I’m looking for my forever home. I’m still a puppy – I’ll turn 1 y.o. in August. I’m tiny – currently only 12 lbs. I came to my foster home in Evansville, IN, in December after being released by a breeder. I’m very sweet and timid at first, but I’ve found my voice here at my foster home and will tell you when I want attention or if I need to a potty break. I am learning to love snuggling with my foster mom and I love to play and get the zoomies. My silly, sassy side has started to emerge! I love being with other dogs. They help me feel safe and confident. I’m very gentle - good with cats too! Since living in a home with humans is new, I’m still learning to trust and am very cautious and spook easily when there are loud noises or sudden movements. I’m practicing leash walking in the yard here, since it’s still kinda scary for me to walk in the neighborhood. Since I’m still skittish, I’d do best in a home without little kids, but older kids would probably be fine. My forever home must have patient people who understand if I’m scared in new situations and who can help me build confidence. I will need a securely fenced yard to play in and another friendly dog to help show me the ropes. I am spayed and fully vaccinated. I have a grade 4 heart murmur (caused by a VSD – ventricular septal defect), so I got a full evaluation by a specialist at Purdue. The cardiologist said that I don’t need any medication or special diet because defects like mine (a hole between the heart chambers) often close on their own over time. The vet also noticed that I once had a fracture in one of my legs. It doesn’t bother me now or slow me down since it’s healed. If you live in the Midwest and are interested in a sweet, beautiful, and silly little girl like me, visit www.savingshibas.com/adopt to apply to become an approved SIRA adopter. The application process helps SIRA learn more about you 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!
