Story
I recently lost my job and home. I am trying to rehome my pure breed Akita asap. She is an amazing dog and it breaks my heart to no longer be able to provide her with a home to live in. Hera is 4 years old born November 16 2020 and weighs 90+lbs. Hera rarely barks she yodels when she wants to go outside or just wants your attention. Although she has not been socialized with other dogs she is fine around horses and loves people. Hera understands sit stay lay down and walks good on leash. Hera loves going on long car rides to anywhere and loves playing in the snow.

Story
I rescued him as a puppy but I’m working to much and he has really bad separation anxiety and do not want him in a cage all day he is very active and friendly dog always wants to be around you he’s never shown aggression towards anyone but I’m not sure how he is around kids he is full of energy so small kids might get hurt from how wild he gets I’m also moving soon and they don’t allow pets he needs open space and a lot of attention.

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. Now, before you go all "Lion King" on me, just know that I will be your bestest buddy forever!! I am two VERY loyal breeds and once I know you are my family, you will have my unending love :) Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)
