Story
Towhee is a happy, healthy, smart, and sweet puppy with an unbridled enthusiasm for life. She LOVES other dogs and lives to play in a pack. We have had her since she was 7 weeks and she is currently 10 months old and 50 pounds. She is well trained (and extremely food motivated) and knows sit, stay, go to your bed, down, rollover and has excellent recall. She's also up to date on all of her shots. My wife is a nanny and Towhee does extremely well around the children that she knows and loves, but she has been mouthy when children surprise her. Her Akita genetics make her a protector, she guards our home and barks at strangers but then quickly warms up to them. She is truly a great dog and would love a home with room to run and hopefully other dogs to keep her occupied and stimulated. The decision to rehome Towhee has been an extremely painful process but we are feeling that there are situations that would better fit her needs. She would prefer to live in a home with other dogs and we

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. MAGGIE  loves people and craves attention!  She has a  typical Malamute personality, a very sweet girl but also likes to be independent and aloof when the mood strikes.     She enjoys being with her human pack where she can be pet all over, get belly rubs and cuddles. MAGGIE likes to walk several times a day checking out the neighborhood.    She is good in the car and will be happy to join you on all of your adventures!  She has done well with older kids, though does like to put her paws up on people, which is why it is best that she is not with small children. MAGGIE prefers to be the queen of her home.  Our foster has indicated she likes to play with other dogs but may be selective of her friends.  Larger dogs with a calm personality.  After a good play date, she enjoys going home to nap.  If there are other dogs in her future home, it will need to be a slow introduction and reassurance that she gets attention when she wants it, just like a queen deserves. Her dream home would be a big fenced yard to relax in and enjoy some quiet time.  But also be inside where she can keep an eye on her family and lounge around, knowing her people are safe. &#226&#128&#139She is currently enjoying the good life with a foster in Manson, WA.

Hi, my name is Lancelot and I would love to meet you. I have been at the shelter since Jun 24, 2025. I can be a bit of an introverted pup. I like having my own space at times and prefer quiet time with my person or people compared to big social gatherings. I have a lot of love to give, you just have to give me a little bit of time to show it all to you!

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). Jason is crate trained and housebroken. He would do best in a home with no children. Home cannot have other male dogs, and/or smaller breeds. Jason is UTD on vaccines, microchipped, and neutered. ADOPTION DONATION: $600.00. Your adoption donation goes toward the cost of this vet care as well as transportation and general care costs. All dogs adopted from Motley Zoo come with a leash and Martingale collar. Each dog also receives a "Tour Gear Bag" full of brochures, coupons, and supplies for your new pup! Please visit our website www.motleyzoorescue.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs and cats.

Click the button to download the adoption application. The application is a form-fillable pdf. Fill out the form, save it to your hard drive, then email back to sian@gingerspetrescue.org Hi!  My name is Xavier from Korea and I am a wonderful approximately 5 month old  male Akita - Jindo mix.  I weigh approximately 14 lbs. and so excited to find my new forever home.  I am very happy, affectionate, smart, and friendly.  I was saved from the Korean kill shelter where I was due to be euthanized. The activists came and saved me and I can't wait to come to America and find a family to love and care for me forever.  Approximately over a million dogs a year are slaughtered to be eaten.  I am so lucky to get a one-way ticket to Seattle to find my new family.  Take me on car rides, walks in the park, and I will become your best friend.  I get along well with people of all ages, gentle kids, and other dogs.  I will do best with a loving family that can give me lots of love, and affection!  On all overseas adoption, we highly recommend our pet rescue dog trainer who will help train your new pup.  My adoption fee of $1,295 will cover my spay/neuter, DA2PP shots, Rabies, Bordetella, Deworm, Heart Worm Test, Microchip, Boarding Fees, Health Certificate and airline transport cost from Korea to Seattle.   A GPS tracker or Apple Air Tag is required for all adopted dogs. You can bring your own when adopting or you can purchase an Air Tag from us   We cannot guarantee breed or age. The adoption fee is firm and helps save the life of another dog needing rescue and our other dogs in need of medical care.  Donations are always appreciated to help pay down our vet bills at Greenwood Vet.  Ginger's Pet Rescue is a non-profit 501C-3 organization.  The adoption fee is donated to the rescue and is tax deductible.   Please e-mail   admin@gingerspetrescue.org   for an adoption application.
