Story

Meet Lakota Our Calm, Confident Teddy Bear Lakota is a breathtaking 34 year old spitz-type beauty weighing 48 pounds though with all that magnificent fluff, she looks much bigger! With her plush cream coat, dark mask, and curled plume tail, she has the striking look of an Akita, but her size suggests shes likely mixed with another spitz breed, possibly something like a Keeshond. Whatever her mix may be, Lakota is simply stunning. But what truly sets her apart isnt just her looks its her temperament.Lakota is calm, steady, and completely unbothered by chaos around her. Other dogs barking? She doesnt care. New environment? Nothing phases her. She carries herself with quiet confidence and a gentle presence that makes you instantly relax. Volunteers describe her as: Beautiful and very calm Extremely gentle she takes treats politely Confident and mellow Excellent on leash with no pullingShe moves through the world like she owns it in the best way. Because of her composed and easygoing nature, we think she could even shine at public events or outings. She seems to take everything in stride. After spending time with her, weve decided she may look like a guardian wolf but shes actually a teddy bear. Lakota would be a wonderful match for someone looking for a steady, balanced companion with both presence and softness. Shes the kind of dog who doesnt demand attention she simply earns it. If youre looking for a beautiful, calm companion with a soft heart under all that fluff, Lakota may be your girl. .. Apply at www.caninecollective.org.

Trixie is a beautiful female Akita with gentle personality. She is sweet and calm, walks politely on leash, and is happy to enjoy a quiet stroll by your side.

(After all, Akitas love snow, and Trixie fits right into Cleveland winter weather). Trixie loves affection—neck scratches are a favorite, and she leans into them with contentment. During one-on-one time, she truly shines, showing just how affectionate and tender she can be. If you’re looking for a gentle, loving companion who enjoys peaceful walks, simple pleasures, and sweet moments together, Trixie may be the perfect match.

Story

If you’re a sucker for doggy hugs and kisses, you need to meet Kat! Her forward solicitation of affection is the cutest! If you’re standing, she’ll stand to give you hugs and kisses. If you’re sitting, she’ll shamelessly crawl into your lap to ‘hang out’ and to give you kisses. Nothing is more comforting than knowing that your pup loves you unconditionally
