Story
Meet Akira, she is a 1-1/2 year old spayed female Akita (around 90 lb) looking for a new home. She is a wonderful dog that gets along well with both male boxer dogs in my home. She has good manors and is a very quick learner. Walks very well with both of my other dogs, side by side. Excitable during play but does very well sharing toys with other dogs. No resource or food guarding of any kind. Have not seen her interact with children but would not suggest her in a home with small children under 12. Does well with grooming, nail trimming/brushing. She loves car rides and going places like parks or to the pet store. Unfortunately i'm going thru a divorce and will not be able to have three dogs in new living arrangement. Ideally she would do best in a home without children under 12 and spoiled on her own or with a dog(s) of same age and energy level. I do walk/run her 5-10 miles a day currently so she should be with an owner who is also very active and has previously owned an Akita.

Story
Meet Tormund! THRIVING IN FOSTER! LOVES PEOPLE, PUPS & THE SNOW!! BIG TEDDY BEAR! This delightfully unique Akita/boxer boy is three years old and is 80 pounds of goofy goodness! He is enjoying some time away from the kennel with an amazing foster family! From the moment you meet him, Tormund will have you smiling ear to ear! He is having the best time hanging with his foster fur brother and would love another canine companion in his new home (though it's not a requirement). When he's not wrestling with his brother, you can find him with his favorite jolly ball in a game of fetch! Tormund is also a fan of squeaky toys and his foster parents are able to take toys/food away with no issue. Not only is Tormund one handsome dude, he's very smart and had learned several commands including sit, come, stay, and shake. Tormund is a very affectionate fellow and is always seeking out all the love he can get. He is a fan of laying his head gently in your lap for some well-deserved pets. Let's not forget those belly rubs! He's also house-trained and is eager to please. As you can see by his pictures, this dude lives to play outside! Tormund will need a very active family that will commit to daily exercise/walks. He takes every opportunity he can to romp in the snow (check out the video!) and is an absolute joy to hang with! If you're a lover of winter sports, you've found your furry companion! Tormund does have a prey drive so a nice, fenced-in yard is essential to keep him safe while giving him a chance to explore. This also means a home free of cats or small animals is best for him. Tormund rides well in the car and is ready to accompany you on all of your adventures! He has shown lots of improvement on leash and will need a capable handler who will continue his progress. Working from home? Tormund is the best coworker! After his daily walk, he relaxes by lounging on the couch. At the end of a fun-filled day, he sleeps quietly on the floor in the bedroom. Though he is capable of being crated, he is admittedly not a fan and his new family will need to work with him to find the best method for when they leave the house. Based on our evaluation, we feel Tormund will do well in an active home with adults or families with kids ages eight and up. He may have the potential to live with other animals as he has done well with his fur foster brother. We are happy to do a meet and greet with your family fur baby. If you he could be the pup you've been searching for, please visit greatlakesdogrescue.com and submit an application for our terrific Tormund today!
