Ciara Silly Kuwaiti Puppy Canaan Dog & Shiba Inu Mix New York, NY

18M 40lb Ciara Kindly, our little mystery breed girl, Canaan Shiba mix from Kuwait. Someone brought her to an area to sell her and when he could not, he just dumped her where she was found being chased by a pack of strays. , she loves people and would especially love it if her family were around a lot because she is super affectionate. Please apply, she's here waiting for you.

From Ciara's Foster Mom: Ciara is a highly intelligent energetic Canaan mix dog. She is alert to her surroundings at ALL times and will bark loudly to let you know. This is a breed trait so she is just doing her job. It is up to you to let her know you are aware and in charge of the situation. I tell her good girl, I am on it then good girl Quiet until she calms down. Prior to coming to us she had very little training in basic commands. She is doing very well with: Quiet- used above or for unnecessary barking Come- from short and medium distances with reward training Sit/Stay- from short distances with treat training.

She is fully housetrained, she needs to go out very first thing in the morning. She is crate trained as well and sleeps there at night. Extremely active and needs room to run so a fenced yard is best. She will let you know she is bored by whining and will go for the occasional slipper if left unoccupied. I tell her no gently and exchange it for one of her toys. She doesn’t fully understand the concept of play yet, but is doing very well fetching her snake toy and squeaky ball. She even brings it back to you! She attaches herself quickly and only wants to be with you. Loves belly rubs and chin scratches are the best! Cats, not so much.
