If you need to surrender a Shiba please be sure to fill out the surrender form here, Surrender Form. It will be passed that along to the nearest available Shiba rescue. If you have previously adopted a Shiba from MASR, we will be here to provide you with advice and support or take the dog back if your circumstances should change in the future. Surrendering your pet can be one of the most difficult decisions to make as a pet owner. Please consider carefully why you need to surrender. Shibas do go through a growth spurt and social changes during the time of adolescence at 8 to 15 months of age, sometimes longer. These mood & behavioral changes can become compounded if you do not spay or neuter your pet. Regrettably many a dog owner has thrown in the towel when their pet needed them the most during the maturing process. Please see a qualified behaviorist first and try to resolve your problems with your pet before asking us to take your Shiba! Resources The reality is, if you no longer want your pet because of their extreme behavior problems most likely no one else will either. Ask yourself this question. Would you want to adopt your own dog if seeking a family companion? (Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have questions about Shiba behavior, we are here to help. Contact us! With all of this being said, if you must surrender an adoptable Shiba please read our policies and guidelines at the link listed below, we are here to help as best we can.
