Meet Rambo, the athletic and smart Akita who is looking for an experienced Akita owner to give him the time and respect he needs to form a strong bond.

He knows basic commands, loves playing with his toys, and enjoys zoomies in the yard. Due to his need to be the focus of the family, we are asking that Rambo go to a home with adults only and without other pets.
