Houdini

Houdini / M / 2Y / 65lbs / Shiba Inu mix / Fostered in Paisley

Houdini loves to be close to his people and his doggy foster brother. When excited he can be a little chatterbox, but who doesn't love a dog who can hold up a conversation? His fosters say "He is a fantastic dog and he deserves so much love! Any adopter would fall in love in the first week". He loves playing with his toys and will take all of his toys out of the toy basket to play with. He is always down for a snuggle session with his fosters.

Houdini is fully house trained. He is working on crate training, like any lovable pup he prefers to sleep close to his people (or in their bed) BUT if you choose to crate him he may cry at first but he will settle in about 5-10 minutes. He's currently improving with his leash manners. Due to the excitement of seeing another dog he does pull on the leash to say hi, but this is improving with ongoing practice and treats! He is medium energy with a high energy mode selection depending on what you have planned on the agenda. He's always up for a game of fetch or a hike but he's just as happy with a Netflix and cuddle session on the couch or a peaceful snooze while you work. He is currently getting 1 or 2 walks a day (weather dependent) that range between 30-45 minutes as well as about 30 minutes of backyard time to get his zoomies in. True to his name, Houdini is MAGIC and can be an escape artist. His agile body can climb over chain link fences, so if you're looking for a dog to be offleash he is not your boy. He would be the perfect on leash dog that can be your very best hiking or adventure buddy. He's also keen to learn new tricks and agility with you!

Houdini is excited to meet new people and will try to get all of their attention. His fosters are working on teaching him to stay down when meeting new friends! He is good with other dogs, cats and kids 10+ (he might knock over small children due to his lean body and excitement around people). His ideal home is with a family who is excited to continue his training and to work on his manners. He would love an active family who will take him on plenty of walks and adventures and play with him. He would do best in a house as he can be vocal. His adoption fee is $600
