Story
Hiromi was turned into the shelter as a found dog. No one ever came for her. Despite being failed by her former person, this sweetheart remains devoted and loving. After Hiromi’s arrival she was initially timid and lacked confidence. She can still be somewhat apprehensive but in less than 10 days, she has opened up and trusted us enough to let her true colors shine! She is silly, sensitive, refreshingly affectionate, playful and a free spirit. Her absolute favorite past time is to be showered with love and give it in return. Her gentle, resilient nature is inspiring but not surprising. Hiromi is very communicative by expressing a multitude of emotions with her eyes. Her body language is inviting and she understands how to use it to subtly let you know what’s on her mind. She is also an Akita so stubbornness is part of her DNA! Her ideal adopter should have a calm home environment and be able to provide consistency and a daily routine, where she can continue to expand her horizons. Hiromi gets excited for her daily walks and is a great traveler! She greets people with ease as long as they approach with the same calm energy that she emits. She seems non-reactive to other dogs and might do well with a mellow male dog. This gorgeous girl is approximately 4-years old and weighs 57 pounds. She is also crate and house trained. She is ready to pledge her love and devotion! Are you?! Interested in adopting?

Story
We don't know much about Tobi's past, but his future is bright.  He is a big boy with a heart the size to match.  He is a gentle giant with a gregarious, carefree attitude and is eager to learn and experience the world. He is game for adventure and deserves to have that special someone to accompany him in life. Tobi is playful and has a welcoming aura about him.  He also has an unabashed, confident side to him.  He's just not sure how he ended up here, and we're making sure he never has to wonder that ever again. He is best as an only dog and someone with previous Akita experience is best. Tobi is approximately 5 yrs old, and due to his size should be on a good quality joint supplement.  He's only been with us a short time, so will need to gain a few pounds to look his best, but he's already on his way to showing us his beautiful soul.

Story
Kanoa is simply a great dog! He’s a 1.5-year old, friendly, playful, and very energetic young Akita. He likes people and appears friendly toward dogs when passing them on leash. He also walks very politely on leash and likely wouldn’t mind running, too, if his human companion was so inclined. Everything about Kanoa suggests that he has lived in a home before and will make his lucky new family very happy. He appears house-trained and is definitely ready to get out of the kennel and into a home again. Come see if you’d like to take Kanoa home with you! For more information about Kanoa or to meet him, please contact: Berkeley Animal Care Services 1 Bolivar Drive Berkeley, CA 94710 510-981-6600 animalservices@berkeleyca.gov Shelter Hours: Monday to Saturday, 10am to 4pm Sunday, 11am to 3pm (This listing is to help assist direct placements of rescues that are currently with other rescue groups, shelters or their current owners.

Story
Aloha! I'm Bread and I'm a 11-week old, female, long coated Akita. I'm a love bug that loves to be held and cuddled. Unfortunately, I won't be able to be held for long, as I'm already 20 pounds! I'm going to be a big girl that will need lots of training while I'm still a small pup. The Vet said that I might have hip and joint issues that will effect me as I grow, so adopters should be prepared to take me in for an orthopedic consult. If you're interested in giving me a good home and can afford appropriate medical care, apply to adopt me! Apply to adopt me through the Oahu SPCA! Oahu SPCA 823 Olive Avenue Wahiwa, HI 96786 808-754-1519 info@oahuspca.org For more information about the adoption process, please visit: https://oahuspca.org/Adoption-Info (This listing is to help assist direct placements of rescues that are currently with other rescue groups, shelters or their current owners.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Zephyr is an approximate 5 year old Husky/Lab(?) mix. She is super smart, playful, funny, and obedient. Zephyr was a transfer from SFSPCA where she wasn't getting much interest. She had come to them as a mom with pups and was in foster care until her pups were ready for adoption. At that time, Zephyr was shutdown and unsure. The SFSPCA team did a fabulous job of getting her accustomed to the leash and helping her learn to trust. Since her arrival at Azaya, she has blossomed into a silly girl with TONS of personality. She loves to play with other dogs, is a pleasure to walk on the leash, and will talk back to you (as Huskies are prone to do). She has participated in several rounds of our obedience program and is now used as our demo dog. This dog has made a huge turnaround and we don't think she's finished surprising us yet. Please inquire about how Zephyr can add some quick wit and never ending curiosity to your life All of our animals are up to date on their vaccinations, spayed/neutered, microchipped, and have had a physical exam. At adoption we provide: veterinary records and vaccine certificates, castration certificate, lifetime lost animal support, one month’s worth of flea medication and heartworm medication, one week’s worth of food, a leash, a collar, an ID tag, and a familiar toy or blanket to help them settle in.
