Miu is a 1-1/2 year old, female, red Shiba Inu. See her Facebook album!

Hi everyone, my name is now Miu, which means “beautiful” in Japanese. I was released from a puppy mill, and I am a one-and-a-half-year-old female Shiba Inu. DC SIR was surprised that I am so young because I have very bad teeth. I have some crooked teeth and I am missing several teeth including canines. DC SIR said they will pay for all my dental needs to ensure that I am in tip-top shape before my furever family adopts me. Despite my dental issues, I am a happy, smart, and outgoing Shiba Inu! I will follow you everywhere you go – from outside chores to indoor chores. I learned the dog door on my first day at Shiba HQ! I get along with all the dogs and cats at Shiba HQ! I also come running when my foster mom calls out to me in a sing-song voice! I love to be pet and even though I have obviously been bred and recently had puppies, I am so happy to be in a home! I also started sleeping in my dog bed which is so comfy and soft! DC SIR thinks I can go to just about any home because of my wonderful personality! I have had a rough start to life, never knowing the comforts of living in a home, having my own toys or being able to run free on soft grass. I am so happy and grateful to be free of a life in a puppy mill. DC SIR couldn’t get an earlier vet appointment than March for my dental, but they said you can go ahead and apply to adopt me now! I will be fully vetted and ready for you as soon as I have all my medical needs taken care of. I hope that I can live without fear and with a family to love. Apply to adopt me at www.dcsir.org/adopt
