Rescue ~ Rehab ~ Rehome

Meet Yamtastic! Professional Toy Box Emptier & Certified Good Boy

Yam is one of five pups rescued together during our Thanksgiving rescue, all from the same overcrowded home. At just 9 months old, this Shiba Inu mix is experiencing many of life’s greatest hits for the very first time. Grass under his paws? Amazing. Toys everywhere? Even better. Freedom to zoom? Absolute perfection.

Since arriving in foster care a month ago, Yam has been on a serious glow-up journey. He walks on a leash, loves tearing around his foster mom’s fenced yard, and fits right in with his foster dog siblings. His hobbies include:
• Emptying every toy box in record time
• Racing around like his tail is on turbo
• Hoarding bones like tiny treasures
• Ranking lick mats and pupsicles as “elite snacks”

Yam is housetrained and crates well at night and for short stretches during the day (3–4 hours). He would thrive in a home where his people are around most of the time. Work-from-home or retired adopters will earn bonus points in his heart ❤️

A cat-free home is best for Yam. He can ignore a calm cat, but if that cat moves… well, the zoomies may commence.

When it comes to people, Yam is shy at first and prefers slow introductions. No rushing, no grabbing, just patience and snacks. Once you earn his trust, you unlock his final form: cuddly, silly, affectionate goofball who wants to be close and share all his love.

Yam’s forever home must include another confident canine friend to help him continue learning that life is fun, safe, and full of good things. He is also a clever little guy and already knows sit, down, wait, paw, spin, and leave it. Brains + personality = winning combo.

If you are ready for a quirky, joyful, diamond-in-the-rough pup who will keep your house full of laughter (and toys everywhere), apply for Yam today ✨

Yam is neutered, microchipped, housetrained, up to date on vaccines, and on monthly heartworm and flea preventatives.
