My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Akita! This fun and affectionate girl is known for greeting her favorite people with a big, heart-melting smile. She loves exploring the Dogtown trails and makes an excellent co-pilot on car rides — calm, quiet, and just happy to be along for the journey.

Akita takes a little time to warm up to new friends, but a few leisurely walks and some tasty treats are the way to her heart. Once you’re in, you’re in — and she’ll make sure you know how special you are to her.

Akita is looking for an adult-only home where she can be the center of attention as the only dog. If you’re ready to build a rewarding bond with a loyal and loving companion, Akita might just be your girl. Reach out to our adoptions team to learn more!
