Story
Meet Fish — Your Sweet Akbash Puppy Prince! If you’re looking for the cutest big little derp with the kindest soul… say hello to Fish! Fish is an 8-month-old Akbash puppy who is equal parts goofy, gentle, and lovable. He’s the type of pup who will make you laugh daily with his silly personality, then melt your heart when he leans in for love. &#226&#156&#168 Fish’s Favorite Things: Being everyone’s best friend Other dogs — YES! Cats — YES! Kids — YES! Learning the good house manners life Fish is fully vetted and doing AMAZING with home life — he’s pretty darn good with the doggie door and has been doing great with minimal accidents as he continues learning his routine. Because Fish is an Akbash (a livestock guardian breed), we are looking for a home that understands what that means. Guardian breeds are intelligent, independent, loyal, and naturally protective — and they thrive with structure, consistency, and humans who appreciate their unique instincts. &#239&#184&#143 Fish’s ideal home: &#226&#156&#148&#239&#184&#143 Breed experience (or willingness to learn!) &#226&#156&#148&#239&#184&#143 A home that enjoys the outdoors &#226&#156&#148&#239&#184&#143 Space to stretch his legs and be his best big puppy self &#226&#156&#148&#239&#184&#143 A family who understands he’ll grow into a confident guardian-type dog Important note: Fish is a guardian breed, so we strongly encourage adopters to read up on Akbash/LGD traits to make sure it’s the right fit — and if it is… you’ll have an absolutely incredible companion for life. Fish is ready for his forever home… could it be yours?

Story
Luna is a 7.5 year old Akbash and the best dog you could own. She is pretty obedient, knows all basic commands and is even off leash trained. She is your buddy for life. I owned a horse and took her on trail rides with me and spent hours at the barn with her. She loves all animals and is gentle as can be. We have had her since 9 months old. She has lived in our town house and now house for the whole time. She loves being outside & loves the sunshine and loves the snow. She is great with kids, but struggles to understand that littles need her to be more aware of them. Owning Luna only has 2 downsides: 1) She has no idea how big she is and 2) she sheds like nothing I have ever seen. The lack of size awareness only really affects you when she gets excited, she might run past someone and accidentally knock them over (older adults and small children) never on purpose though. We no longer feel we can provide the best possible home for her and are looking for someone who can love her.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.When gorgeous Noel was pulled from the shelter she was thought to be a senior girl! But after a few days in her foster home it was quickly discovered what was thought to be older age was more than likely fear. In her foster home she quickly became ill, was rushed to the ER vet where she spent several days. Noel has spent weeks now recovering and is ready to find her forever family.  Noel is wonderful with other dogs, she sleeps by them and even eats right by them!  She is working on her leash manners and only chewing on approved items! ;) Noel is good with cats and loves people! This sweet little lady is being fostered in Utah.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 8, 2025, 5:01 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Zack is a big sweet goof of a boy and bonded to our girl Lucy. They are an old married couple and they must be adopted together. We will be extremely selective about where these 2 go, with all that they've been through.  After their owner suddenly passed away they were faced with euthanasia. We had just a couple of days to find a place to get them safe, and thank goodness a wonderful foster stepped up! Zack gets along with all dogs and cats and is just a happy go lucky boy wherever he goes.  He is being fostered with Lucy in MT.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 3, 2025, 1:45 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Kaiju came to us as an urgent boy needing to be pulled from a Utah shelter. He was so stressed there he'd stopped eating. He went to a foster home where they hoped he would be the right fit to add to their family and he spent several months getting healthy.  Kaiju has had entropion surgery and recovered from 2 UTI's, also been neutered. His foster family feel with Kaiju's need for very slow intro's to new people and the traffic of people in their home, they're not the right fit for him.  He is a very smart boy, very typical Akbash. Strong and protective of his family, and so goofy and loving too!  Kaiju does great with the female Akbash in the home but does need to be fed alone. He also chases cats! He is a chill 5 year old most of the time and would love to find his forever home. He's currently in Utah.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 3, 2025, 1:45 pm
