Story
Kona is such a sweet, loving and cuddly girl. She is slow to warm up to new people and animals but once she does, she’ll be your best friend and love you unconditionally. She is still as playful as she was when she was a puppy. I feel horrible trying to find her a new home but due to family/new baby issues, we need to find her a new forever home. She is well trained and makes a great guard dog. Softest dog you’ll ever meet too. Breaks my heart to see her go and hoping someone will love her like I do and make her feel safe and loved.

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. Koi and Saxon are best friends seeking a home together. Koi is a very sweet girl! She has a very tender heart towards those she loves and gets excited to see you with Akita zoomies and bouncing!! Her best buddy Saxon is a large Akita male with whom she wrestles and plays with all day long. Both Koi and Saxon are very true to the breed, they need a little time to get to know you and trust you but once they do, they fall deeply in love and give you their devoted loyalty and affection. Both should not be with small children and because of their distrust of strangers should be introduced properly to new people. Saxon is a handsome boy Akita that is calm, loyal, strong, confident and kind. Both Koi and Saxon are ranch/volunteer favorites because of their wonderful hearts and loyal devotion. They would do best with positive leadership in an Akita experienced home. Koi and Saxon are everything an Akita lover would want of a devoted pair.  Meet Koi and Saxon at the Akita Ranch today!!

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. Oakley says there's not a word yet for FRIENDS who have just met. Oakley has learned many new things since arriving at the ranch, like sit and how to walk on leash, how to raise his paw for a treat, how to look absolutely adorable at ALL times, how to bulldoze those you love!! When we first received him it didn't appear he had ever had a safe loving home where he could trust those around him or he knew he would have a regular meal, so at first he was little shy. But now he is the biggest love bug and has learned how wonderful love is!! He can be cautious with new people but warms up quickly and once he trusts you, he will slobber you with affection. If he gets excited, you may need to gently calm him down but that's when he will flop over for belly rubs!!...Oh poor Oakley, sometimes he just can't contain his happiness. Due to Oakley's size we recommend he would be best in an adult home. Oakley does seem to like other friendly female large dogs but he can be selective and may be happiest as an only dog. Come and meet Oakley at the Akita Ranch today!! Email: apassionforpaws@gmail.com for adoption information Visit Akita Ranch 28930 Ellis Ave, Romoland, CA, Open 10-5 daily BY APPOINTMENT ONLY.

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.Pretty 85 lb tri-color girl wants a home of her ownKia is an adult female weighing in at about 100 lbs. Very friendly to people she trusts and a good girl on a leash. She likes to play ball Akita style meaning she will get the ball once and then it belongs to her! She is learning basic commands and can sit like a pro, especially if a tasty treat is involved!! She is not reactive to other polite dogs while on leash but she will tell rude dogs to back off!! Kia is a sassy Akita girl that knows her worth!! She does not want other animals invading her space, therefore accordingly, she would do best as the only pet in the home. She has never lived with children and because their behavior can be unpredictable, she would do better in a home with teens and up who will be respectful of her boundaries. Kia is more aloof and independent versus velcro and constantly needing attention. But this girl can lay the cuteness on thick when she knows you are her people!!!

He may have a tiny bit of Malinois mixed in due to the shape of his head but that is pure speculation. He came into rescue neglected and has recovered beautifully!! He is very playful and loves to run but is also quite attached to his humans! He is looking for a home with either a fenced yard with room to run or one that will take him out on hikes, walks or runs. (On leash of course!) He seems to prefer being an only dog/child. Pistol is a spunky young boy that loves affection. He will run and jump like a kangaroo in excitement to see you!! He is very afraid of fireworks so needs a home that will understand and keep him in a safe place during those booming nights. He is a very sweet boy that will steal your heart!

Story
Around a year old, I'm the Fabulous Frida - good with other dogs, smart, a good listener, crate trained, house trained and so much more. A perfect medium size, I am a svelte 53 pounds of gentle, easy-going, calmness who wants to be a couch potato with my humans. But, if you want to play? That is great, too! I love to play fetch or play with other toys. Belly rubs are one of the best things ever, don't you think? I am learning all kinds of things: how to be on my leash, to sit, to stay - it's a lot to learn, but I am smart, so even though I never heard of those before, I'm catching on fast. The children in my foster home are over 12, but I bet I would be ok with younger kids, too, since I am sweet and mellow. Oh, Foster Mom says I don't bark much, either, and that I am a good girl. Wanna meet me and rub my belly or throw a ball for me? Or maybe watch a movie on the couch? YES! I knew you did! Put in an application today so we can make that happen.June 9, 2023, 7:48 am
