✨ Meet Kiba, the heartwarming little lap dog with a spirit that's as vibrant as a mountain sunrise! At 10 years young, this adorable pup is bursting with life and loves nothing more than exploring the great outdoors. His absolute favorite spots? The picturesque Blue Ridge Parkway, splashing around in creeks, and lounging near the Peaks of Otter lodge. But hold on, there’s more! This pooch has lived on a farm, surrounded by ducks and chickens, and he takes pride in his past role as a therapy dog — a title he still wears with grace! 🐾💖 Kiba is all about that leash life; he has impeccable recall and knows his basic commands like a pro! However, this lovely lad is feeling the stress of apartment living; it's taking a toll on his gentle soul. He thrives in nature, surrounded by a yard or woods where he can stretch his legs and enjoy a quiet, peaceful atmosphere. 🏞️ If you have some chickens pecking around, even better! This charming fella would love a family that shares his passion for outdoor adventures and woodland relaxation. Unfortunately, Kiba has experienced some anxiety when crated, likely from being left alone more than he's comfortable with. Remember, this furry friend is a watchdog at heart, keeping an eye on the comings and goings of his family. 🏡 With a playful heart, Kiba is a fan of squeaky toys and snuggling with donut-shaped pillows! He’s friendly to all, regardless of gender, and loves anyone who showers him with love. 🌈 Take note: Kiba has some dietary sensitivities; chicken gives him the itchies, so he does best with salmon or lamb based food. Although his vet says he’s in great health, we keep an eye on his thyroid as he gets older. If Kiba sounds like the companion you've been dreaming of—someone to laugh with in the creek and cuddle up with on the sofa—don’t wait! 🚀 Make sure to apply to adopt through the Buddy App today, and give Kiba the loving home he deserves!
