Meet Inka – The Loyal, Low-Key Lovebug with the Silliest Snores

Inka is a beautiful, soulful Shar Pei who just needs a little time and space to let her guard down — but once she does, she is ALL IN with her person. Think of her as your quiet shadow, always wanting to be nearby, especially if you’re home. If you leave, she’s an angel in her kennel... but if you’re still in the house? She’d much rather be next to you, please and thank you!

This sweet girl is completely potty trained, doesn’t chew on anything she shouldn’t, and has perfect house manners — truly a dream house guest. She loves her bones, adores treats, and will roll over with her signature squishy grin for belly rubs once she feels safe.

Inka isn’t the type of dog who wants to tag along to breweries or busy patios — that’s just not her scene. She gets nervous around lots of new people or loud environments, and she does best when she has a safe space like her kennel to retreat to if visitors come over. She hasn't met many kids, but due to her nervous nature, a calmer, adult-only home would be ideal.

She gets along well with other dogs she knows (she especially loves her foster buddy Rocky the doxie mix!) and also does well with cats.  

A fenced yard would be perfect for her, as she’s not great on a leash and would do best in a low-traffic or rural setting if a fence isn't available.

At night, she’s happy to snooze peacefully in your bed or on the floor nearby... but be prepared for some impressive snoring. (You’ve been warned.)

Inka has great skin for a Shar Pei and hasn’t had any major allergy or itching issues — just a bit of watery eyes from time to time.

This girl is sweet, silly, loyal, and so deserving of a patient home where she can build trust and settle in at her own pace. Once she picks her person, she’s your ride-or-die.

Please note that some of our dogs are obtained from shelters, surrendered to our care, or released from breeders. Each animal's bio is based on our experience of the animal within our care, an educated guess based on physical characteristics, temperament and information shared. Each dog receives basic grooming when coming into rescue, but for some dogs they have not received grooming attention until recently and grooming may be required shortly after adoption. This will be at the adopter’s expense, so we encourage you to research the breed and be prepared for grooming expenses. Underdog cannot guarantee hypoallergenic or non-shedding qualities of any dogs in our rescue. Some of the animals come from situations where they are lacking experience in a home and confidence in humans. In turn, they require another companion dog and/or a fenced in yard in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit. Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home.
