Hi everyone! My name is Sequoia, and I’m a 2 month old red female Shiba/Shepard mix. Not long ago, I was at a shelter in North Carolina. One of the kind staff members there drove me all the way from NC to Maryland so I could start my new life with DC SIR. It was a long trip, but I did great! I didn’t get sick or have any accidents in the car. When we finally arrived, I met my foster mom, and I couldn’t stop wagging my tail! Everything smelled so new and exciting. I explored every corner of the house and yard, sniffing around and soaking up the sunshine. They have a big backyard where I can run as fast as I want, chase balls, and play fetch. She fed me dinner, which was different than what I was used to, and let me tell you…it’s delicious! When bedtime came, I went straight to my bed in a crate. I didn’t mind at all. I curled up, went right to sleep, and didn’t make a peep all night. No whining and no accidents. My foster mom said she was so impressed! I’m such a happy girl now. I love everyone in the house and just want to play, play, play! My foster mom calls me a total sweetheart and says I’m a big cuddle bug. If you want puppy kisses, I’m ready to make your day. I adore scratches, toys, and tug of war. The more toys, the better! I love playing fetch with her 8 yr old son in the backyard. We have a great time. I don’t bark much, but since I’m still young, I do whine a little when I need help. I love treats and will do almost anything for them. I’m full of energy and love. I’m hoping to find a forever home that has time to play with me and keep me active. If you think your home is the right fit for me, please apply to adopt me!
