Story
Meet Xena, an 11-year-old female Akita who fully embodies the phrase “strong, silent type.” Named after the Warrior Princess and absolutely living up to it, Xena is independent, dignified, and quietly in charge of whatever room she’s in. She doesn’t need constant validation, but she will accept treats… enthusiastically.Xena is a classic Akita through and through. She enjoys doing her own thing, appreciates calm companionship, and prefers her personal space respected. Restraint is not her love language, and she’ll politely—but firmly—let you know she’d rather not be manhandled. She would be happiest as the only dog in the home, where she can enjoy a peaceful reign without having to share her throne.Her history with kids and cats is unknown, but based on her mature personality, Xena would likely do best with older children who understand boundaries and can admire her from a respectful distance. Think “cool aunt energy,” not jungle gym. She’s not the type to demand attention, but she’ll gladly keep you company, supervise snack time, and remind you when it’s treat o’clock.Xena is looking for a home that appreciates her independence, respects her opinions, and understands that love doesn’t always come with tail-wagging enthusiasm—sometimes it comes with a quiet presence and a judgmental stare. If you’re ready to welcome a wise, funny, no-nonsense companion into your life, Xena is prepared to rule your heart (and your couch).
