Sponsor a Foster Shiba
There are many costs associated with rescue. First and foremost is the money put into vet care for each foster dog. SIRA covers all routine and unexpected medical care for all our dogs including but not limited to; spaying/neutering, microchipping, annual shots, heartworm test and deworming. Generally adoption fees cover these costs. You can help us defray these costs by sponsoring a Shiba. A full sponsorship is $200. Partial sponsorships of any amount may also be made. Sponsor's first names will be placed on the corresponding dog's bio page.

Sponsor a Special Needs Shiba
We do get some dogs with medical problems that when taken care of greatly exceed the adoption fee. In these cases we do special fundraising to cover these extra medical costs in addition to all routine care. Look for the **Please Help** above the pictures on the Adoptable Shibas page for the fosters that we are doing special fundraising for. Info on their specific medical needs is available in their bios.
