| Here are some things to consider:
Be aware of the commitment you are entering when adopting. Shibas can live to be 12-15 years of age. Consider these issues while thinking about your future with a potential pet.
- If you move, are you willing and able to find a place where pets are welcome?
- When you go on vacation, will you be able to find a reliable friend or kennel to take care of your pet or better yet, are you able and willing to take your pet on vacation with you?
- If you are required to travel for business, how often you will be gone? Will your schedule be fair to your pet?
- Do you work long hours? If so, who is going to be home to let your pet out to relieve itself, or play?
- How much are you able to afford to care for a pet?
