Description
Dog Breed: Shiba Inu (short coat). Loki is a handsome black and tan Shiba Inu puppy, born 4/24/26. He has puppy application papers to be registered with ACA (American Canine Association) registry. He was born in a commercial kennel, then consigned to a dog breeder auction as a potential stud dog. Instead, he was purchased into rescue so he can spend his life as a house pet rather than in a breeder's pen. Loki is a sweet tempered, friendly puppy who gets along well with other pups. He is microchipped and has been vaccinated and dosed with Nexgard Plus for flea, tick, intestinal worms and heartworms. He weighed 8 pounds 10 ounces on 7/28/26. Loki is a cryptorchid - his testicles are retained up within his abdominal cavity. There is a (slight) chance that they will descend on their own as he matures, but it is more likely that it will require abdominal surgery to neuter him, so check with your vet before applying to adopt him. He will be placed with a neuter contract when adopted. When proof of surgery is received, adopter will be mailed a rebate check for $50.00 His adoption fee is $350.00 If you would like to adopt Loki, email me at thistle88centurytel and request an application.

Overview:
The Shiba Inu, a spirited and ancient breed originating from Japan, is renowned for its fox-like appearance and independent nature. Historically bred for hunting in mountainous regions, they possess a strong, athletic build with a distinctive curly tail and alert, expressive eyes. Their coat is typically short and dense, often displaying striking red, sesame, or black and tan colors, complete with a creamy "urajiro" underside. Temperamentally, Shibas are known for their intelligence, confidence, and sometimes aloof demeanor, yet they form strong bonds with their families. While they can be excellent companions, their strong prey drive and independent streak mean they require consistent training and socialization from a young age. They adapt well to apartment living provided they receive sufficient daily exercise, but a secure yard is always a plus. Generally a healthy breed, they can be prone to certain conditions like patellar luxation, hip dysplasia, and allergies, making responsible breeding and regular veterinary check-ups essential. Their unique personality and striking looks make them a captivating choice for experienced dog owners who appreciate a dog with character.
