Story
Name: Tank Sex: M Age: 1 year DOB: March 15th, 2024 Weight: 75 lb Breed: American Akita  Meet Tank: Your Devoted American Akita Cuddle Buddy! Tank is the ultimate mama’s boy—loyal, loving, and always putting his person’s heart first. Both him and his sister were welcomed at six weeks old into an Akita-loving home. Tank grew up with his sister and two other American Akitas on a three-acre playground, but by seven months of age it was clear he needed to be the only dog in the home. He began to fight with his sister (typical littermate syndrome), which made the older male Akita aggressive towards Tank. For his safety, he is now searching for his perfect match—someone who wants an affectionate, smart, and devoted companion.   Tank thrives on love and affection. He will be your shadow, always by your side, and always ready for snuggles. He’d love to sleep in bed with you but is also crate-trained and respectful of your space. While he loves a good toy and outside time, he prefers staying indoors and watching a movie with you. Smart and playful, he walks well on a leash, will sit for a treat, and will patiently wait for you to return home.   Tank will steal your heart, but he will also be very protective of his own at first. Tank is not acustomed to anyone other than his owners and isn't welcoming of strangers. He will need someone to be patient with him while he adjusts, but the patience will be worth the love he gives. If you’re looking for a best friend who will adore you unconditionally, Tank is ready to be yours. Likes: His favorite snack is red apple slices, he likes walks and he loves sleeping in bed with his owners.  Dislikes: Strangers/Amazon and Grocery Deliver Kids? Teens are welcome- he's never been around small children. ##2346534##

Story
Simba has spent too long waiting for his forever family. 💔 This strong and spirited Akita-Husky mix is full of energy, loves his toys, and is happiest on long walks or playing with his human. He’s sweet, loyal, and ready for the right home. If you’re looking for a dog with personality and heart, Simba is waiting to meet you! 🐕 Adopt Simba: https://form.jotform.com/221926016430144 Full profile: Simba is a 6-8-year-old Akita-Husky mix with the personality of an Akita and the heart of a lion. He’s playful, sweet, and full of energy but needs a confident and strong adopter who understands his needs. 💪 Strength & Training: Simba is powerful and can pull when excited, so he needs someone physically capable of managing his strength. He’s learning commands like sit, down, paw, and “potty” and thrives with structure. A harness might help with his pulling. 🐾 Energy & Personality: Simba is not always a couch potato! He loves long walks (2+ miles is no problem), playing with his toys, and getting plenty of attention. He’s affectionate and cuddly but always ready for adventure. 🏡 Home Needs: Simba would do best in a home without small children due to his strength and energy. He’s good with other dogs, especially more timid ones, but does best with boundaries around toys and space. He’s also quite the counter-surfer, so keeping things out of reach is key! 🐕 Health: Simba has a thyroid condition that is managed with treatment, giving him renewed energy and playfulness. Simba has had a lot of love and care from his foster, but he’s ready to find his forever home. If you’re looking for a strong, loyal, and playful companion, Simba could be your perfect match. 💙 Ready to meet Simba? Apply to adopt him and give this big-hearted boy the home he deserves. 📌 Share to help Simba find his forever home Currently being cared in Southern California, but can be transported up to northern states, such as Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, and anywhere within the US continental, if a great suitable family is willing to adopt him.

Meet Ninja – Your Loyal, Gentle American Akita Companion Ninja is a stunning five-year-old American Akita with a calm, loving nature.

Ninja is well-mannered, great with kids, and friendly with dogs her size once properly introduced. She’s protective but never aggressive, and she loves peaceful walks, sniffing flowers, and simply being by your side. Treats are her favorite, making her easy to bond and train with.

Story
Bane is an amazing 8 year old dog who is extremely friendly and loyal. Unfortunately he does not get along great with other dogs, or small children who grab at his face, which is why we have to part with him. He needs a home without small children or other pets, but otherwise will thrive in almost any situation. He has a wonderful temperament, and is happiest when he can lie near you. He is a very loving and affectionate dog who wants to please, making him easy to train even at age 8. I am beyond fortunate to have been able to spend 8 years with him, and I know there is someone whose life will immediately be better for having Bane in it
