Story
Hi, my name is Tank and I would love to meet you. I have been at the shelter since Oct 04, 2024. Learning new tricks and exercising my brain are my absolute favorite things to do! The only way it could be any better would be if I could learn things with you. We could show off new, fun tricks together and be the coolest pair ever!

Hi! My name is Anita the Akita! and I am available for adoption.I was brought in by a good Samaritan on 09/20/2024.The shelter is unsure of my mix or how big ill will get. By my appearance the shelter thinks I could be a akita mix if you`d like to learn more about akitas here is a link https://www.akc.org/dog-breeds/akita/ I am still on the young side.I weigh 54 lbs and am considered a large breed dog.I am a very smart dog! At the shelter I am practicing how to `sit`, `stay`, `come`, `down` and `shake`.I am an affectionate lovebug who would be thrilled to cuddle up with you at home!I am an independent dog who likes to do my own thing!I am full of energy and I love to play! I tend to calm down more when the people around me stay calm. I do best when I have lots of exercise and something to keep my mind busy.My caregivers have noticed that I seem to do well with other large dogs. When meeting dogs in a new home, I would do best with a slow introduction.

Story
The Seattle Animal Shelter is committed to reducing length of stay for all of our shelter pets! Some pets qualify for FREE or reduced adoption fees, please inquire with our Animal Care team to learn more.Gladys is a 10-year-old beauty who’s the perfect mix of calm and cuddly! Her foster mom says she’s “the easiest foster I’ve ever had!” With her loving, gentle personality, Gladys spends her days lounging, soaking up belly rubs, cuddles, and kisses, and just being the sweetest companion you could ask for.Gladys is fully potty trained, rarely barks, and is wonderfully low-maintenance. She’s happy with gentle, easy walks but is just as content to relax at home with her favorite humans, ready to be your best snuggle buddy. A true people-lover, she’ll bring so much warmth and loyalty into her forever home.She’s great with kids and does well on her own when left alone. While Gladys is friendly with other dogs, she can be a little protective over her food, so she will need to be fed separately from other animals in the home or the only dog in the household. If you’re looking for a laid-back, affectionate companion who’s all about love, Gladys would love to be the calm and steady presence in your life! Come meet this wonderful girl – she might just be the perfect fit for you!Pets are complex beings and prior to adoption, interested adopters will be counseled by a staff member to discuss the specific needs for each animal. This will include reviewing all known medical and behavior information.** Please note that some animals will receive numerous inquiries, sometimes more than we can process. We appreciate your understanding and patience. **HOW TO ADOPT: Check the animal`s location.(If you cannot see the animal`s location, please view the pet`s profile through our website: https://www.seattle.gov/animal-shelter/find-an-animal/adopt)From the Dog Kennels/Kennel Group I/Kennel Group Q (in shelter):To meet this dog, please come to Seattle Animal Shelter at 2061 15th Ave W, Seattle, WA 98119, between 1 - 5 pm Saturday, Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday.

Story
birthday 10/19/2022 Benson is a really good boy. He has territorial aggression and would need to be in a home with no kids and a large yard. He is a very good listener, loves to play catch, loves the water but hasn’t fully swam yet but he figures it out. He could use some leash training during walking as he’s normally off leash at the park.

Story
Rocki is going to need a job. He is super high energy and casual walks will not be enough for this crazy guy. He wants to please and once he knows what you want from him he is a superstar. He does know `leave it` and `this way` but he needs a lot of positive training in order to harness his energy a bit. This dog could use a big fenced yard, cows to herd and a soft place to land when the work day is done. Cats may not be the best companion for this guy.

Story
FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME NEEDED: Introducing Hiro! He is a 3-year-old, 100lb Akita, who came to us from an overcroweded shelter in CA. Hiro is an awesome dog! He walks very well on leash, is treat motivated, and is up for any adventure. He has done well with other dogs in our care and would make a great additional dog to a home or he would be fine as an only dog with continued socialization. He has a calm and mellow personality and is more than fine walking/sitting around observing the world with you. We are looking for an adopter with large breed as well as same breed experience. We are also looking for a standalone home with a yard for him. He’s going to make a wonderful addition to any lucky household that adopts him. Hiro is one handsome guy! He is UTD in vaccinations, microchipped, and neutered. His adoption fee is $450.
