Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
Akila is an energetic and playful young dog who thrives on attention and love. She’s still learning the ropes of leash training and commands, but she’s making great progress, especially when it comes to sitting for treats. Akila loves her toys, particularly her large rubber bone and ball, and is always ready for a game of fetch (although sometimes she prefers to keep the toy to herself and have you chase her!)
When she’s not playing, she enjoys belly rubs and being close to her people, often standing between your legs for affection. Akila has lots of fun puppy energy, is very affectionate and quick to learn new things. She would do best with an energetic, owner who can provide structure and plenty of exercise.
Akila is still a young, trainable dog who will become an excellent companion with the right amount of attention and training. She is confident and loving, with a strong, protective bark that can make her an excellent watchdog. Her ideal home would be one where she can burn off her energy with daily walks and playtime. Akila’s enthusiasm and sweet nature make her a wonderful addition to an active home.
