Story
Yuji ("brave second son") is a 2-year-old male (neutered) American Akita. He currently lives in a suburban area with myself, my husband, and our 6-year-old son. We are looking to find him a new home based on a few behavioral and breed-specific behaviors that we are no longer able to manage well. Yuji has a confident and dominant personality. Like most Akitas, he is loyal, silly, and loving with his family, but will show dominance, which is an issue with our young son. He is wary of strangers, and has shown resource guarding on occasion. Yuji is crate trained, housebroken, and well-behaved in the house. We have had success with trainers (our trainer is offering free sessions to Yuji's adopters!), but Yuji will need an experienced owner that knows working breeds. Yuji is smart and knows his commands, including "place." He walks well on leash, but is reactive (especially to loud trucks, bicycles, and runners). Fee is listed to encourage well-meaning adopters.
