Story
Kennel Presentation: standing at the door, soft features, then sat, easy to leash. Not taking treats. Leash Skills: tail down initially, raised more to neutral to get outside. Not taking treats. Sociability: her tail is so expressive- it goes up and down as she is seeing and hearing things in the environment. Moving between unsure and comfortable. When interacting with the handler that prompted the attention, she came in in a large arc motion, and then crouch to the ground, and submissively crawled to the handler with soft squinty eyes ears back tail low head dipped to the side. Not eating most treats outside, eventually ate cheese and fresh pet. https://youtube.com/shorts/J7xRj5fUX5Y?si=bPJTjU44OELyKdz2 Play: no interest in the ball, perked up to a squeaky toy, chased then ignored Dog Interaction: fence meet with Bando, loose and curious https://youtube.com/shorts/PLlQ0tPlfZA?si=I8pWDJb25ZLbKbJz Return to Kennel: easy Color Level: exp gold Recommendations and considerations: ACCT Philly is located at 111 West Hunting Park Ave in Philadelphia.

Story
Matrix is a four year old Akita. We have had her in our care before she was a year old. We are a family for 7 with a baby and we have alot to keep up with. want to make sure that the person who adopts her is serious and willing to give her the time attention and training she needs. I get her monthly bark box toys and treats and she loves that. She loves to play. Very loving and good with kids but not with other animals.

Say hi to the sensational Sasha! This beautfiul Akita came to the shelter as a stray and is looking for her furever home. She is a bit shy at first but actually quite a social sweetheart for her breed. She is open to possibly living with other animals as well as kids of all ages with proper introductions. She has already had some training and is eager to please, so she should be a quick study. Sasha is a wonderful pup who deserves an equally wonderful family of her own. ---If you are interested in adopting, please come prepared --bring a photo ID, proof of address, and everyone in the home including resident dogs with vaccination history.
