Story
Hello All! Meet Lulu Belle. She is a 1 year old Akita/Pitbull mix puppy. Her birthday is February 8th 2024. She is up to date on all her shots and she is spayed as well. She is a very sweet and friendly pup and also active and energetic. She's very playful....loves to play and she is really good with playing by herself with her toys. She likes to play fetch and tug of war. She does really well with other dogs and loves the outdoors as well. She is pretty good about letting me know when she has to go potty but if ignored or take a bit to let her out she will have an accident. She will need an experienced person with patience and love because she can be quite stubborn at times when training. She needs a really good home for I am no longer able to keep her. Please contact me for more information Only serious inquiries please. Thank you

Story
Dakota is a handsome name, kind of a "rugged" kind of name, right?? I am kind of a REFINED RUGGED kind of boy! For instance, I am a busy boy, I love playing and running with my doggy friends, however, I can lay at your feet very sweetly to beg for your attention. I am kind of like a "reverse" planter as well. I mean, you plant it and i will un-plant it for you :D I won't do it often, just when I want your attention and I am outside alone. So see?? you have great control over that urge! So I am a food and toy lover too, I eat out of a slow feeder bowl because wolfing down my food is not an option! I am learning all things toys and am actually learning how to bring the ball BACK after you throw it. I am a smart and very sweet boy. I do absolutely have a prey drive so no kitties for small furry mammals around me please. I am fully potty trained and great in a crate. Now i just need you to adopt me to complete my circle of life. Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)
