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).

Story
Hi, I’m Koda—professional explorer, snack enthusiast, and full-time Husky with opinions. When you come to meet me, I’ll likely greet you with a happy wag, a little bounce, and then show off my manners by sitting nicely for treats (which I take very gently, thank you). I know several cues like sit, down, paw, and “off,” and I walk pretty well on leash for a Husky, though I do like to stop and smell all the important messages along the way.Food is my love language. I’m extremely food motivated and learn quickly because of it, though I may prefer not to be disturbed while I’m eating. Once my bowl is empty, I’m totally happy to move on and see what other snacks you have, and I trade items nicely when asked. Toys? Meh. Cuddling? Optional. Exploring outside and sniffing everything? Absolutely yes.I’m very friendly with people, including respectful kids, but I can get over-excited and jump, so I’ll need help remembering to keep all four paws on the floor. I’m known to “talk” when I’m frustrated or excited—classic Husky commentary. Cats and dogs are a no-go for me, so I prefer to be the only animal. One last thing to know: I can jump impressively high from a standstill and have a bit of a history with counter surfing and mischief when left unattended, so secure fencing, good management, and ongoing training will help me be my best self. If you are super active and love being outside a lot, I could be convinced to live in an apartment; just be sure your neighbours are down for the occasional yodeling session (they can even sing along, I don`t mind).I was surrendered through no fault of my own and am ready for an active home that appreciates a smart, sassy, food-loving Husky who will keep life interesting. I`m unbelievably smart, love to work, and love food! I`m a really fun guy to work with! If you’re looking for a dog with personality, I might just be your guy.
