Mizuki Is On His Way To Recovery At DC Shiba Inu Rescue

Mizuki was surrendered because of severe allergies, and her owners just weren’t equipped to take care of such a special girl. The poor pup was suffering from fur loss because her allergies were so severe. Thankfully, she was taken in by the DC Siba Inu Rescue, who aren’t short on love and TLC.

Upon entering the rescue home, Mizuki was given a warm bath, some yummy boiled chicken and bone broth. She spent the rest of her night cuddled up in bed. Despite the fact that the rescue were told she needed a muzzle for baths and nail trims, Mizuki was actually calm as a cucumber thanks to their reward-based training.
