Meet Gage, the resilient pup with a heart as big as his will to wag his tail! Gage hails from Memphis, TN, where he sadly endured a close-range gunshot wound to his back. Despite his past, Gage remains loving towards people, offering tail wags as a sign of his affection. Now in NJ after being discharged from the hospital, Gage is a friendly, energetic fellow in need of a secure, fenced-in yard where he can frolic and play. Gage's past as a stray remains a mystery, but his love for food has made training a breeze for this cheerful guy. Will you be the one to finally give Gage the loving home he deserves?

Introducing Pina: Pina's story is one of resilience and love. She was once cherished by a devoted mom who nurtured her, but sadly, unexpected circumstance led her to needing a new home after her mom suddenly passed away. Despite the loss she endured, Pina remains a bright and affectionate soul, although she may need a bit of time to rebuild her trust. A well-behaved girl who is adept at basic commands, she's an excellent companion in the home. With patience and proper introduction, Pina could potentially thrive alongside a male large breed dog. Join Pina's journey and be the one to offer her the loving home she deserves. Interested in meeting Pina, please go to the website and fill out an online adoption application at www.bigeastakitarescue.org.

Story
Meet Ben, an Akita whose heart matches the magnitude of his size, overflowing with love and affection! Rescued from a local shelter after being found abandoned in a hospital parking lot. Despite his rough start, Ben is a friendly and well-mannered companion who knows some commands and loves car rides. His enthusiasm for life is infectious, and he thrives on positive reinforcement. Ben is happiest when playing in the yard and is always ready for some play. Due to his size and exuberance, Ben is best suited for a home where he can be the only pet and with adults who can match his energy level. While he adores people, his size and energy may be too much for young children, so a home with older kids or adults is ideal. Ben has been patiently waiting for his perfect match and would make a wonderful addition to a family looking for a loyal and affectionate companion. Are you ready to give Ben the loving home he deserves? Please go to our website at www.bigeastakitarescue.org for an application and additional information.
