Story
Hello! My name is Katara!I am a silly, fun girl who enjoys playing with toys and running around. I, unfortunately, didn`t have all of the important experiences puppies are supposed to have in their first weeks and months of life, so I`m a pretty nervous gal. But I`m learning that the world is a pretty cool place with nice people who come with fun toys and tasty treats. I`m looking to join a home that is familiar with my Akita breed, has the time, energy and patience for a puppy, and also some extra capacity to help me make up for lost time with my socialization. Given how well timid pups can learn from confident, easy-going dogs, my GHS friends are hoping to find me a home with a well-socialized dog so they can help show me the world is a safe place!MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES…CHILDREN: Teenagers should be ok. Given how nervous I can be, I wouldn’t be ideal for a home with young children.OTHER DOGS: YES, a home with a well-socialized adult dog is PREFERRED to help me learn, through them, that the world is not so scary.CATS: Potentially, with a cat confident around dogs. FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: No, I would do best with someone who has previous dog experience. FENCED-IN YARD: Recommended.HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: No apartment buildings, as I can be nervous of new and unfamiliar things, including strangers and too many doorways.SOMEONE HOME MOST OF THE DAY: Not necessarily but I wouldn’t be ideal for a home where I’m alone a full workday.SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME…ACTIVITY LEVEL: Medium-high. HOUSE-TRAINED: Not yet as I’m still young. But with a consistent routine and frequent outings, I will get there in no time!If you think I could be a good match for your home, click the `adopt me` button to apply!
