Tom Nook - Shiba Inu Dog for Adoption in Santa Rosa, California

Tom Nook the 7 year old Shiba is a sweet and gentle soul. He moves through the world gently and quietly. He initially came to us with a bad chronic skin infection and allergies. However, his skin has improved drastically, and his conditions are well-managed through our Community Vet Clinic. His adopter is welcome to continue his care through the CVC. His skin and coat look beautiful now and he is much happier! He can often be seen lounging fully upside down in a comfy bed in his room on the adoption floor. He loves going for walks and lying at his person's feet while they work.

Given Tom's history of physical discomfort with his skin, he has strong preferences on when and how he is touched. When he is comfortable, he will gently nuzzle your hand for pets. He is looking for an adopter that will read his body language and respect his requests for space. Tom Nook needs to be the only pet in a home without children.

The Shiba Inu is a small to medium sized dog breed known for its fox like appearance, with a curled tail and upright ears. Originating from Japan, Shiba Inus are independent, alert, and spirited dogs. They are loyal to their families but can be reserved around strangers. Recognized for their bold and confident nature, Shiba Inus require consistent training and socialization to thrive. With a thick double coat and a distinct red, sesame, or black and tan coloration, Shiba Inus are charming companions for active individuals or families.
