THE FOLLOWING PET IS FOSTERED IN TEXAS BUT AVAILABLE FOR TRANSPORT!!! Details belowAdoption application: https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/57167/genericMeet Tonka!Tonka is a big, goofy, lovable Akita with a playful personality and plenty of affection to share. He enjoys walks, frozen Kongs, puzzle toys, squeaky toys, and, of course, keeping an eye out for squirrels and birds! He's actually a fairly low-maintenance youngster when it comes to exercise, but his prey drive definitely kicks into high gear when something catches his attention.Tonka is a smart guy who's picking up his basic manners, even if he sometimes likes to pretend he isn't paying attention! He'll happily work for food or toys and is making progress with impulse control and grooming. He's looking for a confident, consistent handler who can continue his training and help him make good choices.Tonka does well with other dogs and seems to particularly enjoy the smaller ones, but he's still learning to read social cues and can sometimes mistake another dog's correction for an invitation to play. Slow, thoughtful introductions are important. He also has a strong prey drive toward cats and wildlife, so a home without cats is a must.Like many Akitas, Tonka isn't the right fit for every home. He's looking for an experienced, breed-savvy adopter who understands the breed and can provide structure, boundaries, and proper management. A securely fenced yard and an active family who appreciates his goofy personality would be a wonderful fit.If you're looking for a big, beautiful beast with a silly side, a huge heart, and plenty of personality, Tonka might just be your guy!Born February 2026 and currently being fostered in TexasOUR DOGS ARE FOSTERED IN TEXAS OR PENNSYLVANIA BUT AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION AND TRANSPORT OUT OF STATE.

Story
Meet Celeste, a brave and beautiful Husky mix with a heart as strong as her spirit. Celeste came to us as a young puppy after being hit by a car, leaving her in need of extensive FHO surgery to repair her hip. Thanks to dedicated veterinary care and the love and patience of her foster family, she made a full recovery and now moves with grace and confidence. Her resilience and gentle spirit are a true testament to her will to thrive, and she’s now ready to find the forever family she’s been waiting for. Celeste is a sweet, sensitive soul who can be shy and a little timid at first, especially in new environments or around unfamiliar people. But with patience and kindness, her walls come down, and she reveals her affectionate, loyal nature. Once she feels comfortable, she’ll lean into you for affection, give her famous snuggles, and shower you with gentle kisses. She forms deep bonds with those she trusts and thrives in calm, stable homes where she can relax and continue to blossom. She’s great with other dogs and finds comfort in canine companions who help her feel more at ease. Celeste is fully potty trained and enjoys spending time with her people, whether it’s a quiet evening together or a peaceful walk outside. Born in March 2025, she is currently in a foster home in Texas. Celeste is looking for a loving, patient family who will give her the time and security she needs to continue shining. When you earn her trust, you’ll gain a devoted companion who will fill your home with love and gratitude every single day. All of our dogs are located in a foster home in Texas, Colorado, or Pennsylvania. Our dogs are transported to a predetermined location agreed upon by the rescue. The adoption contract and fee are finalized prior to transport. As a Mutts N Such direct adoption, the adoption interview/meet and greet occurs on video call (Skype, FB Messenger call, Facetime, etc).

Story
Meet Koda! Your new fluffy BFF! Age: 3 years | Weight: 63 lbs Koda is a stunning husky/malamute mix who is ready to find her forever home! Unlike many huskies, she’s a low-maintenance girl, perfectly content with a short walk or some yard time before heading back inside to enjoy the AC. Koda is crate trained, walks nicely on leash, and is potty trained. She’s gentle, curious, and independent, making her an easy companion who doesn’t demand constant attention. That said, Koda will do best with structure and boundaries. She can be protective of her food, toys, and favorite spots, so she will need a confident adopter who understands how to manage resource guarding or is open and willing to learn. Feeding her in her crate and skipping couch privileges will help set her up for success. Because she can be protective of her things with other dogs and is a bit too interested in cats, she will do best as an only pet in the home. Koda is also a true beauty queen! With her gorgeous coat, she’ll need regular brushing to keep her looking and feeling her best. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who enjoys a calmer lifestyle, Koda may be your perfect match. She’s ready to share her love and personality with the right family! Apply to adopt Koda at: acesplacerescue.org/availabledogs Located in Denton, Texas
