Hero is a wonderful Shiba. He has made himself one of the pack with my 3 other dogs. They all have seemed to iron out all of their issues with each other and are getting along quite nicely. If other dogs are okay with Hero, Hero seems to be okay with them. Hero can still [continue reading...]

Chad is doing really well in foster care and we’re getting a good idea of what his perfect forever home should look like. For the first week that he was with us, he didn’t show any signs of separation anxiety at all. His previous owners had warned us that he has accidents inside when left [continue reading...]
Sissy was found wandering around in Huntington Station, NY, in early May. Lucky for her she was found by a real dog lover who took her home and took care of her while searching for her owner. No one ever claimed Sissy, so now she’s in foster care and looking for a new home. I [continue reading...]
Well, it turns out Ella isn’t as dog friendly as she first appeared to be. In her temp foster the day after we took her in, she got along great with the pack of dogs there. When we first moved her into foster care – with one male resident Shiba – she was a sweetie. [continue reading...]
Blueberry is doing great in foster care. He is just about all healed from his neutering and ready for adoption! His foster mom says that his personality has really come alive since his arrival. He’s now eating very well and learning sit, stay & come to name a few. As a testament to his sweet [continue reading...]
Chad recently turned six years old. He is healthy and neutered and VERY sweet. When I went to pick him up, he snuggled up next to me like he’d known me for years. Chad has been very well taken care of… our first foster dog that we know actually had a really good life before [continue reading...]
Ella is less than two years old. Her former owners bought her in a pet store as a Christmas gift for their children in 2005. I guess the cute doggie in the window didn’t meet their expectations though because she mostly lived in the basement and the yard with no contact with other dogs or [continue reading...]
Blueberry was a stray on Long Island and came to us from the same shelter as Suzie. The shelter contacted me a day after they found him. They waited 10 days, but no one came for him. He’s been neutered and moved into foster care and he is a sweetie pie. We don’t think he’s [continue reading...]
Suzie is all Shiba when it comes to water. She walked as far away from the edge of the water as possible on the beach and did not like it at all when we dipped her feet in the water… ok, ok, we picked her up and tossed her in.. She did love romping around [continue reading...]
Early this Saturday afternoon, Terra and I attended to NYCSR’s second adoption. Bri greeted us at the door of her foster home with wagging and kisses and love. We carried her crate and supplies downstairs, and she gleefully hopped in the car to see where we were going. In less than a month’s time, this [continue reading...]
Hero is doing great:) He recovered quickly from his surgery and is running around like a champ. His strength and energy level has continuously improved over the past few weeks. He is eating a lot and is looking than ever! He really enjoys long walks and loves meeting new people. He was at the dog [continue reading...]
