Roxy's Story
My name is Roxy and Im looking for my forever home! Im 5 y.o. and weigh 30 lbs. I came to my foster home here in Des Plaines, IL, after my person died. That was so hard, but thanks to SIRA, Im happy again and my goofy side is on full display. I love attention from my foster family. Ill lay on my back and paddle my paws in the air for a belly rub. Im not shy I love saying hi to strangers. If I am not getting enough adoration, Ill boop you with my nose and grumble at you to PAY ATTENTION TO MEEE!!! Im patient and gentle with little kids. I sometimes get excited and jump up on my hind legs, so my foster mom says Ill do best with humans who are steady on their feet and not easily knocked over. Im a good girl in the house no potty accidents or destruction. I love to play with other dogs! Im friendly, but like most Shibas, I play rough, so my dog sibling should be able to handle my energy. I love to chase critters in the yard, so Im not a good match for cats or small pets. Ill chase anything that moves especially blowing leaves! Im obsessed. I enjoy leash walks, but foster mom says I could use some training since I pull. Like many Shibas, Im a door bolter, so my forever family should guard against escapes (baby gates help keep me from squirting out of open doors). Im healthy spayed and vaccinated. I have a skin allergy, which is managed well with medication and diet. My perfect forever family will have another playful and energetic dog to be my friend, no cats/small pets, and Id do best in a home with no shared walls, since Im vocal. If youre looking for a someone wholl be your shadow (especially if theres food around), then Im your girl! Foster mom says I'll make someone really happy. If you live in the Midwest and are interested, visit www.savingshibas.com/adopt for more information and to apply to become an approved SIRA adopter. The application process helps SIRA learn more about you and your home to make sure wed be a good match. Once approved theyll introduce you to my foster mom so we can meet!
