Story
Dakota is a handsome name, kind of a "rugged" kind of name, right?? I am kind of a REFINED RUGGED kind of boy! NOT!! I am a snuggle bug looking for tummy scratches....I willl MELT for one!! Here is what one of our amazing fosters have to say about Dakota...."Super freaking sweet, loves loves belly rubs, is very strong when you walk him but listens well. VERY treat motivated and knows sit down paw and i just taught him roll over yesterday but its a work in progress 😝. Super playful, he will pounce around you and then roll over for belly rubs and absolutely melts for the belly rubs and kisses" I love playing and running with my doggy friends, however, I can lay at your feet very sweetly to beg for your attention. I am kind of like a "reverse" planter as well. I mean, you plant it and i will un-plant it for you :D I won't do it often, just when I want your attention and I am outside alone. So see?? you have great control over that urge! So I am a food and toy lover too, I eat out of a slow feeder bowl because wolfing down my food is not an option! I am learning all things toys and am actually learning how to bring the ball BACK after you throw it. I am a smart and very sweet boy. I do absolutely have a prey drive so no kitties for small furry mammals around me please. I am fully potty trained and great in a crate. Now i just need you to adopt me to complete my circle of life. Now, before you go all "Lion King" on me, just know that I will be your bestest buddy forever!! I am two VERY loyal breeds and once I know you are my family, you will have my unending love :) Local adoption fee is $300(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Not all stories start like Mochi’s. Back in September, an emaciated Akita with a ratchet strap embedded in her neck came to us in desperate need of help, and Partners for Pets stepped in without hesitation. What followed was months of healing. Daily cold laser therapy, constant bandage changes, and so much patience. Through it all, Mochi showed us exactly who she is: tolerant, loving, and unbelievably forgiving. Now fully healed and ready for a home, Mochi has been waiting, and waiting, and waiting… Including her recovery time, she is the longest resident in our care, living shelter life for 205 days and stepping onto our adoption floor for 157 days with minimal interest. And we just don’t get it. 💔 Mochi loves people of all age and size. She really, really loves toys. She walks beautifully on a leash and keeps a spotless kennel. She’s calm and easygoing, but enjoys playtime when the mood hits. She can be a little picky with food, but ice cream and pork flavored treats are her absolute favorites. She does well in a crate, doesn’t know formal commands, but has lovely natural manners and will come when called… when she feels like it. (Akita 😆) We suspect part of the reason Mochi has been overlooked is due to her breed. She is independent and confident, and not the kind of dog who needs constant affection. She’s happiest doing her own thing, then checking in for love on her terms. It makes the moments she chooses you that much more special. ❤️ Mochi can play with male dogs her size, but her ideal home is one where she can be the only dog, maybe with occasional visits from a pal. She has a pushy, vocal playstyle and makes sure other dogs know that she is the queen- no ifs, ands, or buts. She is also incompatible for homes with cats. If you love Akitas, primitive breeds, or you’re a cat person ready to switch things up a bit, we can guarantee you will fall head over heels for Mochi! She has waited more than long enough. Let’s find her the home she deserves. ❤️ 📍Partners for Pets 9136 Lower Marine Road Saint Jacob, IL 62281 🕚Sunday-Saturday 11-5; Wednesday 11-6 ADOPT⬇️ https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/PAD/Dog
