Cindy Ferndale - Shiba Inu Dog for Adoption in Waunakee, Wisconsin

Meet Cindy: Sweet, Sassy & Suspicious

Cindy is a classic Shiba Inu. She's a little aloof, appropriately cautious, and fully prepared to give a distrustful side-eye to any unknown human who has not yet passed her background check.

But once Cindy decides you're her person, she bonds quickly and her sweet, affectionate side comes out. She's friendly, gentle, and does great with other dogs.

Cindy also appears to be potty trained and already has some impressive house manners. Tell her “get in your spot” and she'll happily run right into her kennel. Clearly this girl has been paying attention.

Like many Shibas, Cindy isn't going to throw herself into the arms of every stranger she meets. She likes to observe, assess, judge you silently... and then decide whether you're worthy. We respect it.

If you appreciate an independent, intelligent dog who will love her chosen human while remaining mildly suspicious of everyone else, Cindy might just be your girl.

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.
