Story
Meet Ritz!  Your Loyal, One-and-Only Companion Ritz is a 7-year-old Akita mix who’s had a bit of a rollercoaster lately. Recently returned to us through no fault of his own, he’s ready for a fresh start with a family who will cherish him forever. This big-hearted boy has so much love to give and wants nothing more than to play fetch with his people.  He thrives on attention, enjoys walks, and is always up for a good fetch session. Ritz prefers a calm environment where he can be the center of your world. He’s not a fan of sharing the spotlight, so he should be the only pet in the household. Ritz isn’t just handsome—he’s incredibly smart, too . He is fully potty trained, kennel trained, and listens well to commands. He loves having structure and knows what’s expected of him. Being the loyal Akita he is, Ritz would likely do well with kids and would adore “his” little people but he can be protective of his family, so he’ll do best with confident leadership and clear boundaries. Ritz is past the puppy stage but still full of life. He’s a smart, devoted boy with a lot of love to give. If you’re looking for a loyal friend who will bond deeply and love you unconditionally, Ritz is ready to fill that role in the most heartwarming way . Give Ritz the forever home he’s been waiting for...your couch, your heart, and your life will be better for it. The adoption fee is $250* + tax and covers age-appropriate vaccines, a microchip, and a spay/neuter.  *Part of Ritz' adoption fee has been sponsored by someone who loves him! His adoption is now $150 + tax. We're open from 12-4 PM Tuesday - Saturday! Did you know you don't need to have an appointment to visit our available cats and dogs***? Simply drop by and if you find a potential new furry friend, you can fill out an application on the day you visit. Go to townandcountryanimalrescue.org to fill out our digital application. Applications are typically processed in 3-5 business days.  Once you're approved, you can return on the date and time set up by your adoption counselor, with your family for a meet and greet. If it goes well, you can take your new best friend home on the meet and greet day!  If you have other dogs in your home, they must all meet the potential adoptee.   ***Please note that animals in foster homes cannot be viewed at our rescue, and appointments are still required to meet them.  Please be sure to follow us on Facebook to learn more about Town and Country Animal Rescue and our mission.  ##954796##

Story
My wife and I have both been around Kiya since the day she was born. She was bred by two dogs I had given to my best friend at the time, one of which happened to be fathered by my husky. My wife took Kiya home at eight weeks old and we started dating a few months after, so she hasn't ever known any other owners. She is a very lovey dog; we've had her through professional training and have never really had problems with her until recently. We do still have my husky; he is now 12 years old. Kiya has never been in a home by herself, as we have always had another dog and have had multiple cats including one right now. Over the last few months, she has begun urinating on the floors of our apartment without warning almost on a daily basis. We are parents to a five-year-old and are not comfortable letting her play on the floor of her own apartment. We believe she is acting out against us as we are both full time students as well, so she hasn't gotten the attention that she was accustomed too.
