About Cosmo

Cosmo is a 4-year-old Shiba Inu who found himself searching for a new home after his previous owner lost theirs. Although this situation wasn't Cosmo's fault, his owner made sure he would be cared for by someone new. Cosmo is friendly and gets along with other dogs, though he tends to be a bit dominant in doggy interactions. Being relatively new to the shelter means we're still learning more about his personality, but he's already shown plenty of affection and charm. If you're interested in meeting Cosmo, feel free to visit the Washington City Animal Shelter or call (435) 673-7193.
