Morningstar Adult Shiba Inu Available

We occasionally place retired or adult Shiba Inu into loving homes. These dogs are well socialized, house‑trained, and make wonderful companions for families who may prefer to skip the puppy stage. All adults are healthy, fully health‑tested Shiba Inu, and with Shiba typically living 13–16 years, even our older adults have many happy years to share with the right family.

Why choose an adult Shiba?

Adoption Fee Guidance

Senior adults (8+ years): typically placed for the cost of spay/neuter (about $150). With Shibas often living to 13–16 years, seniors still have meaningful years ahead.
Younger adults (5–7 years): fees vary with age, health, pedigree, and titles.
Titled dogs (e.g., CH): placement reflects both age and accomplishments in the ring.
