Hi there! I’m Zenitsu! 

Are you looking for a sweet, smart, and super fun buddy? That’s me!

I’m a sweet, almost-8-month-old male puppy who loves everyone I meet. Kids? Love them! Other dogs? Best friends instantly! My absolute favorite activity is wrestling and playing with other pups, so I’m requiring a home that already has a playful doggy brother or sister for me.

My foster humans say I'm super smart - maybe a little too smart! I'm a bit of an escape artist, so I need a watchful, vigilant family and a fenced yard where I can run around safely. I’m also not super great on a leash yet so a fence is a must. I also love to put my brain to work chewing on my favorite toys (and maybe some things I’m not supposed to chew), so keep those Nylabones and Kongs coming!

If you have a dog that needs a wrestling buddy, a fenced yard, and a watchful eye to keep me safe and entertained, apply to meet me today!

CURRENTLY BEING FOSTERED IN WAUSAU, WI

NOTE: Due to the breed's independent and prey driven nature, Shiba Inus should ALWAYS be leashed whenever they are outside of a securely fenced area.  In addition, many Shibas are door bolters and care should be taken around doors and other escape points.
