Wunjo symbolizes joy, hope and bliss. He is a striking Akita who is just a pup and under one year old. Wunjo is friendly and happy. He loves food time and will do anything you ask of him for a treat. He may do well with another dog and we are willing to try a meet and greet with your current dog. Wunjo can be aloof with strangers but affectionate and deeply loyal with his family. Akitas can be territorial about their property so keep this in mind. Wunjo will require a large fenced yard and preferable an owner with some form of breed experience. He is recommended for an adult family. Wunjo is still growing and learning so a family willing to continue his basic training and socialization will benefit him.
