Story

Kuma is a true original — a dignified, gentle soul wrapped in a big, fluffy Akita coat. At 7–8 years old, Kuma is in his golden years, and he’s more interested in sharing quiet moments than chasing tennis balls. He’s also surprisingly cat-like: he’ll rub against your legs, lean in for affection, and silently appear at your side when you least expect it. His calm presence brings a special kind of peace to your home. This 72-pound sweetheart has a surprisingly cat-like personality. He’ll rub against your legs for affection, quietly appear at your side, and follow you from room to room with calm devotion. He doesn’t need constant activity — just a peaceful space, a bit of structure, and someone who appreciates his quiet loyalty. Kuma would do best with someone experienced with Akitas or similar breeds who understands his independent streak and respectful boundaries. He’s easygoing, low-maintenance, and full of quiet charm. If you're looking for a companion to share slow mornings, peaceful afternoons, and sunny spots, Kuma is ready to be your shadow. *Reminder* We are currently facilitating adoptions through appointment only.

Story

It breaks my heart to say this, but due to upcoming school commitments, Im looking for a loving and responsible new home for my sweet boy. He just turned 1 year old and is a beautiful Husky/Akita/Lab mix. He’s full of energy, incredibly playful, and always ready for an adventure. Will be neutered before he find a good home. He’s not neutered yet and would benefit from continued training and structure, as he’s still in that fun, energetic puppy stage. He thrives on attention, exercise, and stimulation, so he’d do best with someone who has the time and space to keep up with his active personality. He has so much love to give and just needs the right person or family to help him reach his full potential. If you’re looking for a loyal, fun-loving pup to grow with, he could be your perfect match.

Story

Tyson is a 3-year-old, 100 lb Akita. With a heart filled with love, his spirit is unbreakable. Despite a rough start to life—he was found tied to a chain and living in a shed—Tyson shows unstoppable resilience and kindness. This gentle, fluffy giant is friendly with both dogs and people. However, in our care, Tyson has not lived with other dogs. Tyson ensured too much in his short life. Luckily, he never let his adversities change his sweet, trusting nature. Tyson is a wonderful companion. With the right family, his big handsome, social, affectionate, goofball of a bear will shine. Tyson is housebroken, crate-trained, and knows basic commands. He loves to play with toys and go for car rides. He would thrive in an Akita-experienced or open-to-learning home! Tyson just wants guidance and attention. He loves his humans unconditionally and hopes to find someone just as devoted to him. Due to his size and playful nature, Tyson should go to an adult-only home or one with older and dog-savvy teens/young adults. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving friend to join your home, Tyson could be the perfect fit. Don’t wait—this incredible boy needs you now! If interested in adopting Tyson, please complete an application on our website at https://www.twentypawsrescue.com/forms-applications/ or email us at info@twentypawsrescue.com. Please note that due to an email glitch, sometimes emails get lost. We respond to all emails! So, if you do not hear from us, please follow up! March 26, 2025, 12:23 pm
