Story
Hello, my name is Chase. I am a 3 yr old Akita. I love to play fetch and tug of war with my humans. I enjoy being lazy, guarding the door, window watching, and exploring new territories. I am also described as quiet, smart, agile, independent and cautious around new things and new people. I’m looking for permanent home with an experienced owner who is comfortable with leading large dogs, patient and willing to give me lots of belly rubs and attention. Would you like to learn more about me?

Story
Ajax (A549956)Ajax is a beautiful boy, with a beautiful coat. He has two different colored eyes, making him stand out in the crowd! He was super calm in his kennel, not bothered but all the dogs barking. Ajax was easy to leash up as well. He did his business right away and several times outside, indicating he may be housebroken. Once outside, he remained calm and relaxed, taking in the warm air and new smells. He showed his appreciation for pets with a wagging tail. Ajax will do well in a loving home. He doesn`t need much! He seems like such a chill, cool guy. *Friendly, pees on everything, sits by ur side

Story
Cassie's owner was  homeless and realized that he had to give her up for her sake.  She was frightened in the shelter initially, but warmed up to the staff fairly quickly.  When our volunteer went to meet her, all Cassie wanted to do was sit next to her and be petted.  She will not be available until after she is spayed in Mid-April.  We are still getting to know Cassie better so  stay tuned for more info.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 21, 2024, 12:12 am

Story
Akai camd from a shelter in NC.  Here is what the shelter said about her: 'This beautiful girl is Akaie. She has been fostered out twice to potential adopters from our shelter but returned both times, as neither potential adopter was familiar with the breed and she was “too much” for them. There was no mention of aggression or anything dealing with behavior, just that she was too strong for one’s wife to walk while he is at work and then the second foster read information on the breed and decided she was not a match for her. We would love to find an Akita Rescue that could pull her from our facility and find the right family for her. ' The shelter workers adored her. Here is what we know about her from her time with us.  She is great with people.  Very particular about what dogs she likes.  Has a fairly high prey drive, so no small dogs or cats. She is at our kennel.  As with all Akitas, she does not like to potty in her run.  Update: Akai has been in a foster home for about 3 weeks. She’s been to the groomers and the vet, no issues with anyone there. She will sit, down and dance when you ask to. She mostly walks well with minor corrections.  She is housebroken and the foster says she is a gem. She has been to the foster’s place of business (store), and has been okay with most of the customers.  She is not crazy about men in baseball caps. A contractor waring a hat met her and when he held out his hand for her to sniff, she growled.  Once he removed his hat, she was fine. One man walked into the store and she disliked him so much she had to be out of the store.Sh barked intensely at him.  Akai needs a home with some Akita experience.

Story
Dexter is loving dog with a loud personality. He's vocal and needs help with listening, stubborn like a husky. My parents are aging and can no longer meet the demands he needs with going on walks and his energy. He loves to play, but can be a little over powering and not know his own strength. Never bites, but plays rough. He's a great dog for someone he can spend the time he needs with him.

Story
Luna is 3 years old. She is so sweet but has some trouble initially adjusting to new surroundings. We are looking for a nice new home for Luna because we recently had twins and Luna isn’t able to receive the amount of time and attention she deserves. She would be a wonderful addition to any family and we are so sad to see her go!
