Courtesy Listings for Area Owners

The following dogs are listed as a courtesy and are not in the care of NYC Shiba Rescue. If you are interested in adopting a courtesy listed dog please follow the instructions in each listing for contacting the current owner or caretaker. All negotiations regarding the adoption will be carried out privately between you and the current owner/caretaker.

Since we cannot guarantee any listed Shiba, prospective owners are encouraged to obtain as much information as possible before adoption to determine if a particular dog is the right match for your particular circumstances and environment. Listing caretakers are also encouraged to gather as much information as possible regarding potential forever homes and are encouraged to use our adoption application to aid in that process.


diabloDiablo ~ NJ

Diablo is a 5 yr. old neutered red shiba. He thinks he is descended from royalty. Diablo loves belly rubs and food.

He is good with children and gets along great with smaller dogs (prefers females). Diablo has a tendency to display dominance and become aggressive with larger male dogs. Diablo has tried to take on his 90 pound mastiff brother several times and lost, which has resulted in several scars.

He’s very outgoing, likes hiking, the beach, and escaping his fenced in yard to raid neighbor’s cat bowls.
