Story
I got Mako from a Akita breeder in LA when I was 18. he was my dream dog, I selected him out of about 5 other Akita's, he was the 2nd brindle one. He is 9 years old now and is healthy. he gets a lot of flies on his ears in summer and requires frequent cleaning to avoid infection. he does very well on walks. always hiked with smaller dogs (shitzus) and larger dogs (german shepard) when he eats it's never a problem. He is a sweet boy that knows how to sit, lay down, shake, stay and waits for his food until given a release. I wish I could take care of him until the end. He loves cuddles and face licks. If he really likes you he rubs his body onto you like a cat does. When he was a puppy I would take him on hikes and he would get tired so I would carry him. Now he enjoys being lifted onto my lap for quality time. he occasionally will sleep inside the house when there is too much going on outside like 4th of july, new years, other holidays. he never destroyed furniture or clothing.

Story
Oversized teddy bear seeks snuggle partner. Cuddly, smart, and eager to please, swipe right if you can handle this high energy heart with a soft side. Hatchi’s story is heartbreaking — he came into the shelter with his brother, but when their owner returned, they only took his brother… leaving Hatchi behind in a high-kill shelter. He soon found himself on the euthanasia list. Hatchi is now in a loving foster home and is looking for his forever home where he can feel safe, loved, and supported again. Hatchi does require eye drops daily for the remainder of his life. In our dream world, Hatchi would find a human that would help him feel confident and secure in a FINALLY stable environment.

Story
Alaska is a beautiful husky. She is 12 years old. She is kennel trained but I would like her to have a home where she is loved and is able to be free. She is a quiet dog. She rarely howls. In the 12 years that I’ve had her she has howled maybe 10 times. To tell you she needs to go out, she will come up to you and pace in front of you. She loves attention and likes to play with her lovey. She loves to walk. She loves to be hugged and lay on you. She understands when you talk to her. Common words are to walk, sit, paw, lay down, go to bed and more. She loves kids, is good around other dogs.

Story
We received Kenzo from our niece in Nevada - so we drove him home as a 2-month old puppy. He will be 2 years old in February 2026. His dad is a Shiba Inu, and his mother is a Husky. We realize he is now spending more time at the doggie day care than he is here at home. He is an active dog, who really likes to play and run around. With our full time jobs and small child with medical needs, he is beyond what we can continue to sustain. He is crate trained, which is useful when needed. If Kenzo is able to have a yard and nearby park, he will do well. Great dog - just not the right season of life for us. Please - help! We want him to find a loving home.

Story
Nola is a very shy pup but once she gets comfortable she is a sweet heart. We rescued her in our neighborhood after a few days seeing her roaming around. No one came around to claim her so we decided to take her in. We’re pretty sure she was abandoned from the shape she was in. She is a beautiful pup with a lovely coat and smile. Her temperament is pretty mellow but she does have an energetic side to her. She loves belly rubs and playing fetch. We would love to keep her but it is getting too hard for us to give her the attention she needs while taking care of two small babies at home. We hope she will find a loving home where she can get the attention she deserves.
