Himari is a sweet 10-month-old terrier mix who weighs about 22 lbs and is expected to reach around 33 lbs. She was born at the shelter to a rescued mother and is a bundle of affectionate, playful, and loving energy. While she's learning to trust, she can be a little shy and nervous with new people, but with a little patience, her sweet nature shines through. She absolutely loves to run and play with her dog friends.
Ideal Home
Himari would thrive in a home with families who understand and have experience with the unique needs and behaviors of rescued animals. She needs high tolerance and patience, as she is not yet house-trained. A family with a background in dog behavior and training would be ideal, providing her with the guidance and understanding she needs to blossom.
Ongoing Health
Himari has received a comprehensive health protocol including spay/neuter certificate, DHPPI and Rabies vaccines, Bordetella vaccine, deworming, microchipping, a 4DX test, negative heartworm test, and monthly Nexgard Spectra preventive protection. She also comes with a health certificate and vaccination booklet.
Training & Support
Himari is not house-trained and will require a family committed to working on this. She is also a rescued animal and may need time to adjust and decompress in her new environment. Patience, understanding, and consistent positive reinforcement will be key to her success.
