(as of 2-26-26) This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped. Give a big hug to little Sheba! Sheba is the kind of pup who slips into a new forever home so naturally that you forget she hasn’t been there all along. This petite tan&#226&#128&#145and&#226&#128&#145black Shiba/Rat Terrier mix is playful, outgoing, and wonderfully intelligent — a feisty little companion who loves a nice lap just as much as a good squeaky toy. Sheba has a brother named Manook who is also available for adoption right here at SOS. Whether she’s playing with other dogs, exploring the yard, or waiting patiently for her morning walk, Sheba brings energy and confidence to every activity. She’s social and outgoing, but not demanding; playful, but not chaotic. Her sweet personality is a hit with men and women, young and old, and she gets along beautifully with dogs of all sizes. Sheba and her littermates have spent the past nine months in quiet settings with plenty of yard space, so a compact, urban space might require some adjustment, but Sheba's warm, winning attitude would thrive in almost any situation. She's still working on mastering leash walking skills, but Sheba's perfectly content, quiet and clean in a crate for up to eight hours.   Like many young dogs, she’s also still learning basic household manners like sharing and teamwork, but she responds well to gentle corrections and structure. Generally, she’s an easygoing house guest who loves cuddles as much as playtime.  She’s happy to chill when you’re busy and delighted to join in when you’re not. And she's waiting to meet you! Note on Sheba Shiba: This pup enjoys being around other dogs, both in play and as a friendly coexister. She does best if fed and given high value food separately from other dogs as we have noticed some mild resource guarding, which is a common breed trait in Shiba Inus (what we believe to be her breed mix). An adoption donation is required for each adoption; please see    HERE    for more information about this.

We get to know each of our dogs as an individual and do our best to describe and place them based on personality not breed label. Some dogs may not yet be in New England, nor ready for immediate adoption. There may be additional vetting, quarantine, waiting periods and/or fees depending upon your state of residence. If you have questions or concerns on any of this, you can discuss this with your Adoption Counselor.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.February 26, 2026, 1:54 pm
