Story
The Good: Kasper was a rescue dog that I adopted over a year ago. His release papers state that he is approximately 9 years old (their guess). However, his dog trainer (Taylor Made Working Dogs) stated approximately 3 but I've had him for nearly 2 years after training so maybe he's 5 years old now. Kasper is absolutely stunning to look at and in great health. He has done a 6-week board and train program, and is house-trained, will walk at your heel, come to you when called and sits on command. His demeanor is calm and quiet. He doesn't wander around or approach others. The Bad: Kasper is also a resource guarder. Pretty much anything that he deems valuable (including people) may cause him to bite or snap in defense. Sadly, because I have tenants who rent rooms in my house, I'm not able to provide the ideal environment for him to thrive. Additionally, while he may be able to enteract with large well-behaved dogs, he doesn't do well with small dogs.

Story
Dorian is looking for his forever home!! Dorian was pulled from the shelter after spending 680 long days - nearly 2 years in LAs shelter system. Despite spending 2 years in an outdoor concrete kennel, with minimal human interaction, he held on to hope and has been the most resilient boy. Most dogs don’t last that long in high kill shelters, but Dorian was a staff favorite. He did well with volunteers who brought him out for play groups and they advocated for him to keep him alive. But still somehow no one wanted to adopt him. We saw a post about him and immediately knew we had to get this boy of that environment and into a foster home. Since then we have all fallen in love! We now understand why he was a staff favorite. He's the silliest Akita Inu mix, and he's as loyal and loving as they come. He is extremely handsome and the sweetest, most easy going guy. Dorian is crate trained, potty trained, and knows several commands. He can be nervous around strangers, but once he knows you, he loves you for life! Dorian is dog friendly, and he is an absolute goofball when he plays. Dorian loves to go for walks (cue the happy hops) and crash for a nap next to his person. He would be fantastic with a person with Akita experience or someone who understands/has researched the breed. Dorian is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and currently on flea tick and heartworm medication. Overall. he's in good health, and we believe he is around 6-7 years old and weighs 80 lbs. We recently did his DNA test with Embark, and he is an Akita Inu, American Akita, Pittie mix. If you’d like to see videos of Dorian you can visit the instagram page @fenwayfluff and see the story highlight called “Dorian”. He is currently being fostered in San DiegO

Akita

Male, Young
San Marcos, CA
Size
(when grown) X-Large 101 lbs (46 kg) or more
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
This magnificent Akita was an abandoned stray in our neighborhood who we have taken in, nurtured, and helped recover back to full health. He is a wonderful, sweet and loving dog with a great personality - eager to please and very trainable. Gets along quite well with the smaller dog we already had. Calm and intelligent. Still quite young (around 18 months) with some puppy traits. He just happens to be quite a large animal (100+ pounds). For some, this will be exactly what they are looking for. He needs the right family and situation to be able to stretch his legs and get the attention and activity he deserves. He has won our hearts - but with an imminent downsizing coming for us, we simply cannot keep him long term. All shots up to date, with recent vet exams, and will pay for neutering if new owner would prefer that. Thank you for looking, and we hope to find an amazing new home for this great dog! He really deserves it.

Story
Nala is a purebred akita. She has been rehomed now 4 times now so i’m trying to find her a forever home. She’s very sweet and has tons of energy. Would prefer her to move into a home with a backyard, but has been an apartment dog so if needed. She may do better either being an only dog or in a home with a younger dog than her. She comes with a crate, her bowl, some toys, and her leash.
