About Loxy

Three-year-old Loxy is a lovely Shiba Inu girl who likes to keep things cool, calm and collected. She's not one to throw herself into the spotlight or demand attention - she's much more of a quiet observer who prefers to take her time and assess the situation before deciding you're worth her attention! True to her Shiba Inu roots, Loxy is a little reserved, somewhat independent and has that wonderfully aloof air that Shiba lovers know and adore. She's also a sensible girl who has been very compliant with vet checks and handling, showing us that beneath that independent exterior is a pretty easy-going young lady. Loxy will be happiest in a calm, quiet home with a predictable routine and, ideally, someone who already understands the wonderful (and sometimes wonderfully quirky!) ways of the Shiba Inu. She's not looking for a busy social calendar or a household full of chaos - she's after a peaceful place to call her own. She may be able to share her home with another dog, although she hasn't shown a great deal of interest in making canine friends while in the shelter, so any potential friendship would need to be carefully considered. If you appreciate a dog who has a little independence, a touch of sass and plenty of Shiba charm, Loxy could be your perfect match. She's a little lady who knows her own mind and is looking for someone who appreciates her for exactly that!
