My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

To ensure the best possible experience when meeting our dog, appointments are required. Please EMAIL apassionforpaws@gmail.com and wait for confirmation of your appointment  before coming to visit the Akita Ranch. Thank you and we look forward to meeting you soon!

FOR DOGS NOT LOCATED AT THE AKITA RANCH, PLEASE CONTACT THE SHELTER OR INDIVIDUAL LISTED IN THE DESCRIPTION DIRECTLY for more information on a particular dog.



Happy Husky mix! Needs breed experienced home

Rico is a fun-loving boy who is learning what life has to offer! For the first year or so of his life, he lived in an apartment in Las Vegas. Not exactly the best environment for a young dog that loves to run. He didn't get much training and went through a teenage phase where he was jumpy, mouthy but we have seen him change while he has been in a stable environment!! Rico needs a loving home that will provide him with ample exercise and plenty of affection. He is very smart and really just wants to please his leader. He loves to play with toys and sometimes tries to hide them under the dirt in the yard but doesn't mind if you unearth his treasures! He LOVES the water and splashing in his pool while playing fence chase with another dog!! Rico is a huge lovable personality that likes to talk to you and tell you how he feels. He is a big gushy sweetheart who really just wants to be your best friend!!
