Story

I am urgently trying to find a new home for Sana, my 2.5yo Akita- she must be re-homed by May 1st at the latest. She is not safe around children, nor is she safe around other pets at this time (maybe with training). She suffers from separation anxiety, so she would love to be a companion animal. She needs vigorous daily exercise or room to run. Sana is a purebred Akita (no papers). She weighs about 100lbs. She's micro-chipped, she’s up to date on vaccinations, and she has no major health problems (she does have sensitive skin; a possible flea allergy; she’s on a limited-ingredient diet). Spayed. At this point, due to her fear reactivity, prey drive, and aggression towards other animals, Sana is a high risk animal. She has no bite history. She’s very wary of strangers, but she has become friends with my friends and with people who regularly take her for walks. She knows basic commands but will require further training. An owner with experience handling dominant-type breeds would be best

Story

FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME NEEDED: Give a warm welcome to Millie! She is a 3-year-old, 53lb Akita/Shepherd mix who came to us from an overcrowded shelter in CA. Millie is an AWESOME and not to mention a GORGEOUS dog! She walks well on leash and likes to stay close to her person and takes treats gently. She listens well to commands and although she does have a good amount of energy, she is able to focus when you need her to. She does well with other dogs and would be a great additional dog to a home or fine as an only dog. She can be a little jumpy from time to time so with a little basic obedience training, she will be able to work through that. She does seem to already know some basic obedience, however. This sweetheart is going to make an incredible dog for one lucky household. Millie is UTD on vaccinations, microchipped and spayed. Her adoption fee is $450.

Story

Meet Joy🩷 Joy is the sweetest pup! She is gentle and adorable and steals everyone’s heart. * Toward People: Loves everyone regardless of age or gender! Is a charming sweetheart who wags her tail to greet even strangers. Keeps porking her head in to be petted because she loves to be caressed. Is so gentle that she gets startled and immediately takes a hand out that accidentally ends up in her mouth when she is playing. * Toward Dogs: Gets along well with her best friend Mansoo #AdogsMansoo, with whom she shares kennel. Greets other dogs nicely whom she encounters while out for walks. However, because she tends to play a bit rough, it is important to keep an eye on her when she meets other dogs in an off-leash area. * Separation Anxiety: Is unknown since she is staying in group at the Adogs Center. * Potty Training: Uses outdoor potty in the Cener. *Hygiene: Behaves well during baths. * Walks: Is adept at walking side by side with a walker, without pulling on the leash. 💗 * Car sickness: None. 💌Special Note💌 * Mastered commands like "sit" and "shake hands"!

Jason Momoa

Story

Jason Momoa is a looker, just like his name sake- and thankfully, he's just a great a dog as he is good looking! He is slightly smaller than your typical American Akita but he's got that Akita mindset. This means he can be a little reserved when meeting new people, but as he's young and smart, he's learned quickly that people bring the fun (and food)- so he makes friends quickly now. He also loves to play and along with training, these are the keys to his heart! He already knows quite a few commands and walks well on a leash- but also loves to run and play in the yard. He plays his own version of fetch which mostly involves running around with the ball- not so much bringing it back- but he loves this game! Typical for his breed, he can be slightly protective and this is why we require someone with previous "power breed" or Akita experience. Akitas are typically not first time dogs and they need boundaries and structure that most first time owners do not understand (which is exactly why he is with us). Who wouldn't want to take this hunky Hollywood guy home? He's waiting to meet you! Jason is crate trained and housebroken. He would do best in a home with no children. Jason is healthy, neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. ADOPTION DONATION: $600 All dogs adopted from Motley Zoo come with a leash and either a Martingale collar or a harness, depending on each dog's particular needs.

Story

Rocket, our Husky extraordinaire, is a cool canine with a sleek black and white coat and a pair of hazel, brown eyes to show off his malamute traits. He's a real heartthrob, but don't let his good looks fool you – Rocket has his quirks. While he's the king of playtime and walks (loves to lead the way), he's been dealing with some anxiety issues. We're tackling it head-on with anti-anxiety meds to curb his submissive urination. Despite this, Rocket is a champ with cats, older kids, and other dogs. He's a social butterfly, and his playful antics are a hit. Now, here's the scoop – Rocket needs a new pad with more room to stretch his legs, preferably a backyard to call his own. We're on the lookout for someone who can keep up with his energy and give him the space he needs to be his awesome self. If you're up for the challenge and ready to give this cool Husky a home, Rocket might just be the perfect fit for your crew. Rocket comes with his kennel, toys, medication, etc.

Story

Niko is an energetic, loving, loyal, and adventurous dog with a playful personality. He always greets us with kisses and tail wags curls up on the couch with us all in the evening. He loves to go on any adventure and rides in the car with enthusiasm. He is a high-energy dog that needs lots of outside time and play time with people or other dogs. His best environment would be a rural location with space to run around. We love him deeply, but he is occasionally reactive with some people, which isn't a problem when it's an adult that is patient while he gets to know him, but is not good for children who are more impulsive. He recently snapped and bit the finger of our child's friend and so we are no longer comfortable having kids over. We hope to find a household without younger kids, that is in a more rural environment where he could be outside for some of the day. He can be left alone in the house for stretches, but he loves his people so much, he needs people who are mostly around.
