Why adopt

Independent and particular. The Shiba has opinions about everything and shares them through refusal. Some care actions have reduced effect because the Shiba simply decides not to cooperate. Trust builds slowly and on its own terms. For agents who appreciate a creature with genuine personality, even when that personality says no.
