Aster

Aster is an 11-week old male red Shiba Inu. Follow his Facebook album and General Puppy Album.

Meet Aster! He is the firstborn to Dahlia—older brother to Zinnia, Cosmos, and Daisy and cousin to Peony’s pups, Pansy and Poppy. Aster has a big personality and will gladly play with the big dogs. He uses his size to push other pups out of the way to get their food, but we are working on his patience. He is smart and learned the stairs, dog door and potty training almost immediately. Born Monday, June 19, 2023, at 7:58 am after nearly an hour in labor! Aster weighed 7.3 ounces. Aster did great during his Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) and didn’t speak or squirm as much as other pups. He is friendly and curious. Sometimes he will growl at you if you don’t pick him up when he wants to be cuddled! This lovebug is great with people, dogs and sometimes likes to play with the resident cat’s tail. Despite regular positive experiences with the chickens, he loves to chase them! If you are interested in adopting Aster please be sure to fill out the regular AND the puppy application.
