Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Vixen comes to us along with ten other Akitas from a backyard breeding situation in rural SC. Vixen is approximately one year of age, though she may appear older due to having a hard life. Vixen has already had a litter of puppies, she was kept outdoors in the SC heat and has since tested positive for heartworm which she is currently being treated for. While Vixen was being removed from the breeding premises, she was attacked by another dog (non-Akita) that had gotten loose on the property. Vixen didn't even try to defend herself, she was bitten several times and simply just laid there while the other dog was removed. Vixen will need a quiet home with a gentle touch. She is a gentle and unsure girl, who desperately wants to love and trust. If you have what it takes to help mend this Akita's broken spirit please fill out our online adoption application located on our website at: www.bigeastakitarescue.net for our sweetheart Vixen.
