My story

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

To ensure the best possible experience when meeting our dog, appointments are required. Please EMAIL apassionforpaws@gmail.com and wait for confirmation of your appointment  before coming to visit the Akita Ranch. Thank you and we look forward to meeting you soon!

FOR DOGS NOT LOCATED AT THE AKITA RANCH, PLEASE CONTACT THE SHELTER OR INDIVIDUAL LISTED IN THE DESCRIPTION DIRECTLY for more information on a particular dog.



Benji, the lit bear is a creme/brown colored Akita. He is playful boy with lots of love to give (appx 4 years old, neutered, vaccinated and gastropexied). Benji has a stocky, muscular build on a small frame.

Sadly, Benji had a rough start in life. Abandoned and left to fend for himself in s backyard, he had not received a lot of attention or affection during his young life. His coat was in bad shape.
While his past was not a happy one, you would not know it from his demeanor; Benji is loving, affectionate, playful, well behaved and calm.
His fav hobbies are the beach (leashed), sunbathing, kissing, playing with his toys and playing with his human.
Benji has a bit of a pull on the leash. He is definitely dog selective but not overly aggressive. He should be the only pet in the household.
When Benji first came to us, he was shy and had no idea how to walk on a leash.
But look at him now, 5 months after rescue Benji is letting his true colors shine. It’s why we nicknamed him the “boss”. (He thinks he is the boss)
Handsome Benji would do best in a household with kids over 12 years old. Some type of outdoor space is preferred.
This little powerhouse is ready for love, ready to find his forever person. Come and meet Benji today!

For inquiries, please email mmhuetter@yahoo.com or text 678 977 3499. He is available for adoption through Danielle’s Husky’s To The Rescue. Contact their Los Angeles based representative for info/meet and greet.
