About Meka

Meet Meka! This adorable Shiba Inu mix is seeking a patient and understanding home. She needs time to build confidence and learn that the world can be a safe place. Meka has previously lived with other dogs and got along well with them, so having a confident canine companion could be beneficial for her. It's important that she goes to a home without small children. Meka will thrive with someone who is willing to help her become more comfortable and socialized at her own pace. She’s part of our Paws Forward Program, which includes three free training sessions with Janette from Kind K9s after adoption. While she may need a little extra patience, watching this sweet girl blossom will be worth it. Can't adopt? Please share!
