Story
I was adopted from Petland, Orlando at just 2 months and now I’m 4! My birthday is April 2nd, and I’m a purebred American Akita. I weigh ~85lbs. I’m a very good boy, but mom says I’m stubborn. Other info about Theo: -house trained BUT will bolt out the front door -very destructive if bored/anxious -knows Sit, Stay, Paw, Come, Inside, Outside, Cage, Down -leash trained -missing a toe (back left) -loves playing tug of war -will occasionally fetch -loves hiking and car rides -good guard dog -good with small animals/kids -minimal barking -sensitive skin -2x/yr heavy shedding -used to monthly grooming *I am trying to be as honest as possible so whoever his new family is knows what they are getting into. Akitas are for experienced dog owners. He needs structure and plenty of attention. Theo would thrive with a great yard and consistency. Please do your research about American Akitas before inquiring. The $500 adoption fee will go towards paying Petland account off and is negotiable.

Story
Say hello to Maverick, a handsome Siberian Husky Mix looking for an active family to enjoy life with. He resembles an old man with his white fuzzy face and eyebrows. But at 3-years-old, he's far from retired and will need an active family to keep up with him. He's not competing in a snowy dogsled race in Florida but would like to stay busy with tons of activity and exercise. Maverick is a big dog at 74 pounds and has a mouthy and rough play style so kids in the home should be aged 13+. He has a habit of chewing his leash so walking with a metal one is recommended. He will need additional training to help him become a great family pet. If you're ready to provide Maverick with the care and patience he deserves, come visit him at SPCA Florida!
