Diego - Shiba Inu Dog for Adoption in Houston, Texas

Diego is a handsome 4-year-old Shiba Inu that is sweet, loving, and incredibly smart. Once he bonds with his person, he loves with his whole heart and will be a loyal companion through every adventure.

Diego has a high energy level and is looking for an active family that will include him in daily walks, playtime, and all of lifes adventures. He loves squeaky toys, enjoys chewing on bones, and is always happy to head out for a walk. He walks beautifully on a leash, rides very well in the car, and is potty trained, making him an easy companion both at home and on the go.

Diego does well with children and would thrive in a home where he receives plenty of love, attention, and exercise. He can be selective with other dogs and may need slow, proper introductions, so a family willing to help him build confidence around new canine friends will set him up for success. He has not been tested with cats.

Diego is current on his vaccinations and is ready to find a family that will cherish him for the rest of his life. If you are looking for a devoted best friend who will love you unconditionally and keep up with your active lifestyle, Diego may be the perfect match.

Could Diego be the missing piece your family has been waiting for?
