Thread: Thinking of adopting another dog!

  1. #1

    Thinking of adopting another dog!

    My family loves Zero and we are thinking of getting him a little playmate. Zero is a male Akita, 6 months old...Right now we are looking at a 2 yr old female shiba inu. she is only 300$ from the animal shelter, microchipped, neutered, current on all vaccines, heartworm tested and started on Heartgard Plus & Frontline Plus.

    i hope it all goes well for you guys
    Your shelters adoptions are expensive The ones here range between $40-$90.I'm sure she'll be worth it though

    ya 300 is a bit pricey in my opinion, but much cheaper than how much we bought for Zero! it's a no kill shelter

    probably because she was poorly bred! Good Luck with the adoption

    Congratulations. Be sure to share your pictures

    I agree; she doesn't look Shiba at all. Her expressive eyes scream Pit Bull, Chinese Shar-Pei, and GSD. That's an odd combo and I'm probably off on a breed or two, but I doubt she's more than a 1/4 Shiba

    even poorly bred dogs still resemble their breed is some way shape or form, she doesnt look like a shiba at all to me, her ears are too big and her head is too square and her coat seems a bit shorter

    Dontcha think? Or maybe not GSD...Perhaps Malinois?
    Edited to add: I doubt she's Shiba or related to any of the Japanese breeds because she displays the characteristic "meat muzzle" that you can see in Peis. Her expressive eyes are very unique and truly scream Pittie to me. Or maybe I'm the only weirdo who sees this...LOL.

    Here's a better example of those Pittie eyes.

    She's really adorable! I do hope you're able to adopt her... if she IS a Shiba, you'll have 2 bossy little nordic pups on your hands lucky! I actually do think she looks like a Shiba, perhaps mixed with something. Her size is dead-on for a Shiba... she looks to be only about 16" at the whither. She does not look like a show quality Shiba, but she's adorable and reminds me a lot of my friends 2 Shiba's.
