My story

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

Akio is a handsome, wonderful 5-year old, male Akita.

He walks well on leash, loves exploring and is gentle and well-mannered once he’s let out some of his energy from being cooped up! He is a sweet boy who loves both toys and treats!

Akio gets along great with puppies and females and warms up to males after a slow introduction, through he does occasionally display some dominance tendencies.

You can see a video of Akio and his friend, Luigi here: https://youtu.be/pKd7CuFL-yc

Akio will need some additional leash training to help him become a better walking companion. With a little patience and guidance, Akio will quickly improve and become a delightful additional to your walks and adventures!

Akio’s Animal ID Number is: COA-A-62460; Location: Building C, Kennel 6
