My personality

Why I need a new home

Relocating

My story

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

We are a newlywed couple who adopted Blaze from the Seattle Animal Shelter in mid September. Right now, we live in a house with a closed fence yard. Unfortunately due to my husband's work, we need to relocate, to an apartment. It isn't fair for us to keep him as much as we would want to, our property contract has listed "akitas" as a restricted breed. It also would not let us have renter's insurance due to his breed. We love him to death, but our current financial circumstance also doesn't allow us to live in a house. He's an awesome dog. I'm a stay at home wife, so he's with me all day everyday. He's very reactive at walks and has separation anxiety. He is potty and house trained. He knows some commands like sit, stay, down, his name, come, etc. He loves his pets, toys and treats. He would be excellent with someone without small children, a solo pet. He does not like other animals. Only for those who are experienced with this breed and knows responsibility that goes with it.
