Akihiko is a 10month old male who is energetic and ornery but very lovable personality. We've had him since he was 8 weeks and he does have breeder papers. He hasn't been fixed. Very loyal to the family and gets along with kids and adults. Hasn't been around other dogs except his sister.

Miku is a 16month old female with a sweet loving heart who loves to be close to her family. She is happy just to be petted and loved on. She is fixed and has had some obedience training. She is more protective and does bark at strangers until she gets to know them.

Both of them have been updated on shots, heartworm, flea medicine and love snacks like carrots and ice cubes. Both are used to having baths even though they tolerate it. Both dogs could be great walking or running partners if the owners are active.

KC
Maple Heights, OH

KC is a very handsome, three year old neutered male, that is up to date on all of his shots. He is living at a boarding facility owned by a Vet and is a healthy happy boy BUT really needs to find a home of his very own. KC ran right up to our MARS volunteer and happily greeted her. He is playful and does typical akita "leans of love". Don't tell anyone, but he is a bit embarrassed by his pictures because he is in the process of blowing his coat (we think he is still a handsome hunk). He offered nice sits for cookies and did not mind our volunteer brushing him. KC truly enjoyed all the attention!

For more information on KC contact Dawn, a MARS volunteer, at ljuba.akitas@ gmail.com

PRECIOUS AND BULLET
Texarkana, TX

Precious and Bullet are six year old siblings in Akita Rescue near Dallas. These dogs were owner surrendered to Texarkana TX Animal Services after they were called out about a dog fight. Bullet & Precious were in their backyard in two separate enclosures when two stray dogs entered Bullet's enclosure and attacked him. He had injuries which required immediate medical attention and his owner decided to surrender both Aktias to Animal Services. Animal Services contatced us and asked if we could help rather than send the pair to the ACAC (Animal Care & Adoption Center). Knowing the severity of the injuries and the need for vet care the kind folks at Poodle Patch Rescue agreed to help and got the dogs to their vet. In addition to wound care for Bullet's injuries, both dogs have now been neutered/spayed, received annual vaccines & rabies, and dewormed. Unfortunately both are also heartworm postive and have started treatment. Both Bullet and Precious are well on their way to a full recovery and would love to complete their recovery in a loving, forever homes.

If you are interested in adopting either Bullet or Precious, please contact Diana at 903 748 2846 or Valerie at VFox10401@AOL.com.

AKIA
Miami, OK

This pretty young female Akita is about a year old. And, according to the shelter she gets along fine with men and women. And, she seems to be okay with other dogs. With proper Akita introductions, she would probably do fine with a mellow male about her size.

"I brought her in the front part of the shelter and put her in a huge cage we have. She was quite the young lady...she just laid down and watched everyone come and go. I wanted her up there for at least a little while so she would get attention and have some interaction with us. Somewhere there is a good home for her with some good people..."

DALLAS
Eldon, MO

Dallas is a very loving 2 year old neutered male Akita. He loves and needs attention, will happily take you for a walk, and really loves to swim. He enjoys traveling and sits well in the backseat. Dallas is a dominant dog, he has been with great with my daughter's meek female terrier mix, and a puppy pit but does not get along with my Bassett hound at all. I was given the dog in Texas when he was left behind by a young man leaving for Iraq… I took him in to keep him from being put into the pound.

KIA
Minneapolis , MN

Due to a family illness we are looking for a loving home for our 7 year old Akita , Kia Bear. She is a very sweet loving dog. She loves people and is great with the grandchildren. She has been raised as an “only child”, so she might do best if she is in a home where she is the only dog and continues to be completely spoiled.  

Kia is a very beautiful dog and every where we go people stop and ask us what kind of dog she is and the comment we here most often is “she is the most beautiful dog I’ve ever seen”.  Kia is a real lady and does not let the compliments go to her head!

She has had all her current shots and has a micro chip. We have all her pedigree papers as well.

Anyone who makes Kia a part of their family will have a wonderful companion. For further information about Kia Bear, please email Val at valbrown60@msn.com
