A little about them
Ranger is a 2-year-old, 20-pound Shiba Inu who is looking for a patient, understanding forever family. After being abandoned by a commercial breeder, Ranger received veterinary care for broken and missing teeth and moved into a supportive foster home. With time, kindness, and the company of other dogs, he has begun showing his playful, silly personality.
Ranger enjoys throwing toys, wrestling with other dogs, and eating beef liver treats. He is smart, healthy, and has so much potential.
Ideal Home
- A securely fenced yard for potty breaks and playtime
- No small children
- A family familiar with shy or fearful dogs
- Patience to help Ranger continue building confidence
- Another dog or two would be welcome playmates
Ongoing Health
Ranger’s broken and missing teeth were treated by a veterinarian, and his mouth was repaired so he would no longer be in pain.
Training & Support
Ranger is house-trained and is learning to walk comfortably with a step-in harness. He is sensitive to things going over his head or around his neck, so he needs continued patience and gentle support.
