This boy is the most lovely, well-mannered senior!  Even though he’s 10 years old, Hanzo loves life and still has spunk!  He would love to be your walking partner and has been told he doesn’t pull on the leash.  He likes the cooler weather because that means it’s not too hot to go along in the car on errands!  He does not require a lot of exercise but will “complain” if he’s bored.  He makes squeaking, squawking sounds that are hilarious!

Hanzo has seizure disorder but the seizures are mild and few and far between.  He has been stable with daily medication which he happily takes in a mini marshmallow!

He loves patrolling his foster owners’ yard for critters and one time squeezed under the gap in the wood fence to chase a chipmunk next door!  A sturdy fence is a must for this adventurous and fearless boy!

Being a Shiba Inu, he is not a lap dog but enjoys knowing his person is there.  It took a little while for him to start wagging his tail and giving kisses in his foster home.  Once he started coming out of his shell, he revealed that he likes playing tug with squeaky toys!  He will sometimes bring one to his foster owners to initiate play. 

He is good with other dogs but would be fine being alone.  Since he’s older, he’s not into rough & tumble play.  He says he’s too distinguished for that silliness.  

He is perfect in the house and does not need to be crated.  He is housetrained and will scratch at the door to go out.  He doesn’t chew things, knows to sit for treats, and is not a barker. 

His forever home will surely appreciate his sweet disposition and enjoy watching his personality blossom!
