Story
I have had her since she was 8 weeks old. She just turned 7 January 22. She is a very loving and caring dog. She use to get along with my moms boy Akita but there would be times they have their moments. She would need to be an only dog I suggest. My ex and I worked with her in his dog and they did good but it took time. I have 3 kids now which happened pretty kick due to having twins and she went from just her to having 3 little ones. She doesn’t like them at all and I’ve tried introducing being next to them with her she ends up growling and I do not want to take the risk. I’m a single mom now so it’s also hard taking care of her financially. She’s overall an amazing dog she loves walks, car rides, and people.

Story
This is Phoebe! She is a 6yo American akita. She is spayed & utd on vaccines. I am needing to rehome her due to personal reasons. An ideal home for her would be a single animal home, she is aggressive with other dogs/animals, & no kids under the age of 12 (reach out for more details on this, if interested in adopting her). She is the sweetest, most loyal dog & it hurts me to have to rehome her. If you feel she would be a good fit for your home, please message me. I won't rehome her to just anybody...I want her to go to a good, loving home!

Nibbles

Akita

Male, Puppy
Claremont, NC
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter,
Story
Nibbles has lots of energy and loves to play. He is very much a lap dog and loves to sleep with someone. He likes lots of attention and will be your constant companion. While he would love to have a dog friend, he may annoy other pets by playing too aggressively or for too long. He also isn’t very good at sharing food. He is mostly potty trained but will pee/poop if left locked up. If you let him sleep in the room with you at night, he is able to make it through the night without any accidents. He will sleep in bed with you or on a dog bed. He is a very active chewer and needs durable toys and long lasting chew treats/bones. He does respond to sit and stay commands.
