Barley

Akita

Male, Adult
Sacramento, CA

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Barley is a survivor! This resilient boy has been through more than his fair share, including being on the euthanasia list TWICE, but thanks to the love of his foster family, he’s finally learning what it means to be safe, cared for, and happy. Barley's striking coat gets him noticed right away! He is a handsome brindle Dutch Shepherd/Akita mix who is around 4 years old. His sweet face and deep chocolate eyes hook passersby right away, but it takes a little bit of effort to win over his affection, and rightfully so, since he has been abandoned by owners multiple times. He loves a good squeaky toy, but may reject your attempts to win him over with treats. Now thriving in his foster home, Barley enjoys the simple pleasures—sniffing around the yard, playing with his foster human and dog siblings, and soaking in every bit of affection he can get. He gets along with other dogs and is learning that people can be kind and trustworthy. Barley cannot be in a home with small animals, especially chickens or cats, and should not be homed with small children since he is a bit unpredictable. He also needs to be in a home that is aware of his opportunist behaviors - like going through open doors or finding holes in fences. If he finds a spot, he turns into Forest Gump, and RUNS! Akitas are famous for their protective nature, and Barley has demonstrated some of these qualities...he is not fond of strangers in his house and should be kept tight on a leash when he is out and about. Barley would do best in a calm, understanding home with people who believe in second chances as much as he does. He doesn’t need perfection—just someone who will continue to help him grow and love him for who he is. Barley is neutered, UTD on vaccinations, and is microchipped.

Good with kids,
Story
Put unknown for friendly with other dogs as it really depends on what’s displayed to him. He’s playful with other pets but will get defensive if he feels he needs to. Enjoys walks and lots of rubs but will walk away when he’s had his fill for the moment. Very loving to those he feels safe with. Unfortunately I have to rehome or surrender due to living conditions and him not going to work well in an apartment while I’m away from work.
