Sammy

My name is Sammy and I’m looking for my forever home! I am a curious, smart, goofy, playful and sweet 7 y.o. I live in Munster, IN, with my foster family, but for most of my life I lived at a commercial breeding facility where I helped make puppies. Living in a home with humans is so much nicer! At first, I was shy and skittish around people, but then I learned that humans give belly rubs! OMG - what could be better? So now I follow them around everywhere. I haven't met any little humans so far, so I don't know how I'd react to them. There are other dogs here and I love to play with them. Foster dad says I'm a little bit bossy with them sometimes, but we get along well. I like being outside in the fenced yard, especially during bunny season! I've caught 3 of them so far and always on the lookout for more. Yep. I got the Shiba prey-drive gene! Because of this, I'm probably not a good match for a home with cats or other small pets. I’m learning so many new things here, like how to walk on a leash. Foster dad says I'll be a pro with a bit more practice. I’m potty trained and a good boy in the house. I will happily entertain myself with my favorite squeaky ball. I get a bit anxious if left all by myself, but if there are other dogs around, that helps a lot. My perfect forever home will have experience preventing escapes from open doors, gates or fences, since I'm always looking to chase more bunnies. I'd love to have a securely fenced yard and another dog to keep me company, but those are not required. I weigh 30 lbs and a healthy boy - neutered and vaccinated. The vet says that my kneecaps are a little bit loose. They don't bother me and the vet does not feel that I need surgery at this time. If you live in the Midwest and want a handsome fella like me to give belly rubs to, visit www.savingshibas.com for more info and to apply to become an approved SIRA adopter. The application process helps SIRA learn more about you so they can make sure we'll be a good match. Once approved, they'll introduce you to my foster dad so we can meet!
