Adorable Akitas!!! Kilo, tan coat,  is a 6 year old male and Nala, white coat, is a 4 year old female. Would like to keep them together.  Both are up to date with vaccinations and are altered.

They are good with both adults and kids, are very lovable and obedient and love to be outside, especially in cooler temperatures!   If you think they might be a fit for your home or have additional questions, please contact Gia at (312)646-8887.       Please visit www.magnificentmutts.org for the online dog application.

Story
CHANCE – have you ever seen a more handsome fella? Just a few things about this sweet guy. The vet believes that Chance is between 18mo - 2yrs old and weighs 59lbs. • He is heart worm negative and neutered. •He is super sweet and gentle - wants to cuddle and be near his person. •He is dog-friendly (the foster doesn’t have cats, so we are not certain if he’s cat-friendly) •He is people-friendly to everyone he has met. Foster does not have small children, but he has been fine around children on walks. Due to his size and youth, he might knock down small children, but he is not aggressive. •He is house broken. Even in the rain and snow he has let us know he needs to go out. •He is a little timid to new people at first, but warms up quickly. •He very rarely barks. •He has learned to sit, walk on a leash, and “wait” for his food bowl to be put down. •He is very food motivated, so can be easily trained with treat rewards. He is not reactive when eating. •He can be possessive over certain toys with a low, warning growl if another dog tries to take it from him. •He is not interested in fetching a ball, but loves chew toys and antlers. • He can be very active, but is also happy cuddled up with his person. •He would do great in a house with another dog, but would be fine as an only dog also. Once adopted Chance will travel via private transport (transport cost is $160.00) to a location closest to you. If you would like to make this pretty boy part of your family please follow the link below to our application. https://forms.gle/APKvbgFJcaRvgKgk9

Story
Nova is a 6 year old red and white malamute that came in with Sequoia and Luna. Sequoia seems particularly bonded to her. While these three do very well with each other, they have displayed some dislike toward other dogs of both sexes, especially when they are together a pack. Nova is a very tall girl and presents herself as the reserved lady of the the three, putting up with their shenanigans and maintaining her dignity. Her clown comes out every so often.

Sequoia is a 4 year old red and white malamute who is almost, but not quite as tall as Nova. Sequoia is the outgoing social butterfly and voice of the three and definitely has a goofy side.

Alaskan Malamute Husky

Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Rocky and Hunter found themselves dumped in rural Minnesota, where thankfully, a Good Sam stepped in and took them in. Tried for months to locate owners, and none could be found (dogs were not chipped) and so they came to IAMRA. Both Rocky and Hunter absolutely love humans and can’t get enough attention. Rocky is an absolute goof ball who will walk himself on lead and has the cutest overbite. He has settled a lot in group and is finding success navigating the yard with our other dogs. Hunter is a little more dog selective, but it learning to be comfortable around more dogs and has shifted from serious to a softer self. Hunter when he wants attention will do adorable nibbles almost grooming his human to get some attention! Hunter and Rocky have made a big change of environment and are still adjusting to the urban area. The trainers at Zen Dogs are working with them everyday to adjust to this change and are finding success with the use of food and some fun! If you are interested in this dog, or any of our other dogs, please go to www.iamra.org and fill out an online application.
