Story
Kuma is a playful , loving , beautiful young Akita She will be one on 8.29.2024. I have had her since she was five months and got her from someone who had to many puppies. Kuma is neutered. All medical records that I have will be provided. She loves to play and should have a large space to run around. Kuma is highly active and when bored can be destructive. Kuma like walks and has a high prey drive.She does not do well with cats. I think she can be accustomed to being with another animals but would do best with being in a home by herself. I have been working on potty training and I think that my being at work all day is effecting her natural schedule. She is not crate trained. Kuma is very vocal. Kuma likes to cuddle. Kuma loves to give kisses. Kuma loves water. Kuma has Coprophagia : she eats her own poop out of boredom/hunger while I am away at work. Kuma pees ALOT. Kuma needs 24/7 attention. Someone who works from home Kuma gets car sick after 5 mins.

Story
Hello, I`m Bruno, a senior Akita with a heart full of love. I`m a friendly chap, always ready to share a goofy joke or a funny antic. My loyalty knows no bounds, and I promise to be your most faithful companion. I`m a bit of an old soul, but that just means I`ve got plenty of wisdom to share. I love lazy afternoons, belly rubs, and the joy of companionship. I might be a senior, but my spirit is young. I`m full of life, love, and laughter. Adopting me means gaining a friend who will stick by your side through thick and thin, always ready to brighten your day with a wagging tail and a warm nuzzle. So, how about it? Will you give this old dog a new leash on life?

Story
Skipjack is a delightful and stunning 2-year-old Akita mix currently in a foster home. Skipjack loves adventure and he would thrive with an active person or family. In his home there aren't children, but they do visit! He does well with an 8 and 13 year old but may be a little too bouncy for small children. Initially shy, Skipjack reveals his goofy and affectionate nature once he warms up. He loves belly rubs and can’t get enough of the water, often splashing around in the dog pool. He does have a bit of a prey drive and might get distracted by rabbits or squirrels on walks, but he generally walks well on a leash. He would also prefer a home without cats. Skipjack is a sweetheart, responding well to direction and training, but he will need a committed owner to continue his training. He hasn’t had any accidents in his designated space and he is crate trained. He is generally well behaved, he is working on his excitement when meeting new people! Skipjack is a lovable, high-energy dog who would be a great companion for an active individual or family willing to continue his training and provide him with the attention he needs. You must be over 21 and a home owner to adopt me. Please visit www.pittiesandpurrs.org to fill out an application. For further information contact adoptpitties@gmail.com

Please contact Darlene at 302-312-5129 (fureverpawsdogrescue@gmail.com) for more information about this pet.  This dog is located in Newark, DE. Visit us on the web at https://fur-everpaws.com/fur-ever-paws-adoption-application/ to submit an application. Please contact the foster directly at 302-312-5129 (text or call) or via email at fureverpawsdogrescue@gmail.com Fur Ever Paws Dog Rescue is a small no kill rescue operating in the Delaware/Maryland area. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit that rescues and places homeless, neglected or abused dogs from high-kill shelters in the south into loving, responsible committed and permanent homes. We feel our comprehensive adoption process which includes not only taking the time to match the dog to the prospective new owner but helping to educate that owner in responsible dog care, allows us to find the best homes for our little buddies and the best companions for you! Each week we use USDA certified transports to bring dogs from high-kill shelters in the south to our fosters where they all receive the appropriate medical care and are placed in nurturing loving homes while they await placement in their forever homes. Interested in one of our dogs? Great! Now that you've seen them here you'll need to go to our website where you'll find our list of adoptable dogs (updated every week). Then, it's just a simple process of finding a dog you're interested in and filling out an application on our site. Once we receive your application, whoever is fostering that particular dog will contact you and do a short over the phone interview to complete your application process. If everything works out, they will set an appointment with you so come out and "visit" with the dog you're interested in (we want to make sure that not only are you a good fit for the dog but that the dog will fit with you). If everything works out, you'll be able to take rover (or spot, or jax) home with you that very day. A couple of things you should know: We can't hold dogs over the phone or via email. Adoption fees vary based on breed. All of our dogs have been vet checked and dewormed (if possible due to age, additional treatment may be needed). We provide a spay or neuter voucher to all of our adopters. &#226&#128&#139 January 27, 2025, 9:30 am

Story
ABOUT GHOST Ghost is a playful and energetic 2-year-old Husky/Malamute mix! Ghost came to HAP when his owner was incarcerated and could no longer care for him. In his previous home, he lived with a child and another dog. While most huskies tend to be stubborn with new people, that is not our boy Ghost! He loves to cuddle up with his people and will lay his head right on your lap! While he is not very treat motivated, ear and belly scratches are a sure way to win this boys heart. He loves to be outside where he can keep an eye on all the activity around the shelter. Ghost is a strong boy that loves to walk and is learning leash manners while walking. In typical Husky fashion, he likes to do things on his own time frame and likes graze on his food throughout the day. He is a very opinionated guy who has no problem letting you know when he would like some attention by ‘talking’ to you or ‘singing.’ Due to his vocal talent, he would likely do best in a single-family house or townhome! If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.
