Adopt Zena a Tricolor (Tan/Brown & Black & White) Shiba Inu / Mixed dog in

Location:

Downers Grove, IL

Description:

My name is Zena and I’m looking for my forever home. I’m 9 y.o. and I am a tiny girl, weighing only 14 pounds. I may be small, but I have a huge personality! I came to my foster home here in Belleville, IL, from a commercial breeding facility that shut down. I’m glad that life is behind me now. I really like this new life. It’s scary sometimes – there are so many strange noises and experiences. But even if I’m skittish at first, after I get used to things, I relax and let my inner diva shine! I love going for walks and I’m well-behaved on leash. I even let strangers pet me sometimes if foster mom is holding me. I really like my foster mom! She gives me treats and I give her lots of affection and kisses. Foster mom thinks that I would thrive as an only dog in my forever home since I don’t really play or interact with the other dogs here. Meal time and treats are some of my favorite things, and I love rounding up all the stuffed toys and putting them in one place. I like keeping track of my babies. Then after a few days, I’ll move them to a new spot. I’m okay with the other dogs in my foster home and don’t pay attention to the cats who live here. Sometimes indoors I growl or snap at the other dogs if they get too close to my food or my stuff. Hey – I’ve got to show them that I can stand up for myself, right? I also make my feelings known when something displeases me, like if a loud noise startles me, or if I’m confined in my kennel and I want out. Because I can be vocal, I might not be the best match for an apartment or condo with shared walls. I’m a very smart girl. I have learned to open up cabinets and find all kinds of treasures inside and I can magically get into rooms that are blocked by baby gates (I’m not telling how!). I am also fully house trained Because I’m small, I can squeeze through really small openings, so my forever home will want to be careful about even small gaps in or under a fence or gate. I’m a healthy girl – spayed and vaccinated. If you live in the Midwest and are interested in a big girl in a small package, I’ll be your bff for life!
