Story
Hi my name is Keiko. I will be 9 yrs old in July, 2026. I am 100% pure breed American Standard Akita. As us Akitas I am very independent. I have lived with my human Dad and doggie dad since I was born. I've never been around any small humans, (kids). I need a new home with a yard and fence since my Dad is moving out of the country and I can't go. I like people generally, but like all Akitas, I really don't care for other animals. I am completely house trained and very clean. I'd like a new home with parents that have owned other large breed dogs, any past Akita ownership is a big plus, because you know....we are special dogs. I will always be loyal and respect you, as long as you treat me the same. If you love me I will definitely love you, but we don't need a lot of hands on affection. I will always be their for you, sleeping next to your bed, on the floor, if you need me. I would say my biggest fault is I am possessive of my bones and stuff, but I will also respect your stuff.

Story
✅ Currently in South Korea 💜 Available to fly to JFK & EWR Meet Geondam! 🐻 💙 Name: Geondam 💙 Gender: Male 💙 Age: Estimated 5 years old (Born in April 2020) 💙 Weight: 10 kg / 22.05 lb 💙 Adogs News Account: @_adogs_ 1️⃣ Health Condition * Neutered. 2️⃣ Rescue Story * Geondam was once on the first euthanasia list at the Gimje City Shelter. When rescuers first saw him, he was shivering in the corner of a cage, terrified of human touch. We couldn't give up on him, so he was rescued just in time to give him a second chance at life. 3️⃣ Basic Information * With People: Is very shy and takes a long time to open up to new people. Needs a patient family who can wait for him to feel safe. * With Dogs: Gets along very well with his friends at our center. * With Cats: Tends to chase them, so caution is required. * Separation Anxiety: Unknown because he currently lives in a group setting at our center. * Potty Training: Unknown, but he currently prefers outdoor potty breaks. * Walks: Showed great walking skills during his time at the training center. * Hygiene: Was very well-behaved during grooming and hygiene care at the training center. * Because he is fearful, he may try to nip if forced into something. A gentle approach is essential. * Absolutely loves treats! * Is still scared of human touch. Needs time to learn that hands are for love, not for fear.

Story
✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to JFK/EWR💟 The prices listed are based on USD, and the adoption fee will be calculated in CAD according to the exchange rate. Meet Hodol❤️ 💙 Adogs Center Updates: @_adogs_ 1.) Health Condition * Not neutered yet. * Microchipped. 2.) Rescue Story * Hodol was living at the Gimje City Shelter. He was waiting at the shelter with a smile on his face despite the weather getting colder, but no one stepped up to adopt him. The shelter had poor conditions, with infectious diseases spreading and poor heating, so Adogs urgently rescued him. 3.) Basic Information ❗️As a puppy, he may need training in areas such as separation anxiety, potty habits, biting, nipping, whining, disorderly behaviors, howling and barking. ❗️It is difficult to predict his shedding and growth size because his parents are unknown. * With People: Is a little shy but is docile and stays in your arms when picked up. Once he becomes familiar with someone, he wags his tail like a helicopter and runs around happily just seeing them come near. Looks comfortable, often resting by your side or grabbing a toy and making himself at home. * With Dogs: Is never defensive with new friends and always ready to play. * With Cats: Hasn’t met them yet. * Separation Anxiety: Stays relaxed and sleeps in his spot even when alone without separation anxiety. Is perfectly fine staying with strangers, playing and spending time with them without any issues. * Potty Training: Has a 100% success rate on pee pads. For stools, he hits the target 50% of the time and the other 50% are usually just off the edge of the pad. * Hygiene: Accepts brushing well without resistance. Finds drying a bit uncomfortable, but he handles it well without any trouble. Although he doesn’t like it, he’s docile while getting his nails trimmed with his belly-side up. .* Walks: Hasn’t been on walks since his vaccinations aren’t complete. * Car Sickness: Didn’t show signs of car sickness even during long trips lasting more than 3 hours. * Since he’s still a teething puppy, he has a habit of nipping at hands or feet, which is easily managed with wood, sticks, chews and tug play. * Whines or barks for attention during guardian’s mealtime but he settles down quickly if s/he ignores it. * Has a great appetite and loves food. * Gets scared if picked up suddenly, but he’s fine if you support his hindquarters while lifting. Since he hasn’t had much experience going for walks yet, he gets quite nervous when outside. * Is great at 'sit,' and 'wait.'
