PONYO - SPECIAL NEEDS (please inquire for more information)

What kind of person drops off their beloved family member at a boarding facility, says they’ll be back in two days and is never seen or heard from again?  After multiple attempts, the staff finally reached the owners.  Their response was they were not coming back for him.

Imagine you are Ponyo, waiting day after day, and one day becomes two, then two days becomes a week and then a month.  At what point do dogs give up hope?  Akitas are known for their fierce loyalty and devotion. Sadly, in this instance his loyalty was rewarded with betrayal.

Thankfully, Ponyo is resilient and his joy of freedom overshadowed his despair. He’s 4yrs old and is a happy, fun-loving boy.  He is best as an only dog and requires an experienced Akita owner. 

Ponyo is settling in and is getting plenty of attention, interaction and enrichment. 

Stay tuned for updates.

HIROMI  

Hiromi was turned into the shelter as a found dog.  No one ever came for her.  Despite being failed by her former person, this sweetheart remains devoted and loving.

After Hiromi’s arrival she was initially timid and lacked confidence.  She can still be somewhat apprehensive but in less than 10 days, she has opened up and trusted us enough to let her true colors shine!  She is silly, sensitive, refreshingly affectionate, playful and a free spirit.

Her absolute favorite past time is to be showered with love and give it in return.  Her gentle, resilient nature is inspiring but not surprising.

Hiromi is very communicative by expressing a multitude of emotions with her eyes.  Her body language is inviting and she understands how to use it to subtly let you know what’s on her mind.  She is also an Akita so stubbornness is part of her DNA!

Her ideal adopter should have a calm home environment and be able to provide consistency and a daily routine, where she can continue to expand her horizons.

Hiromi gets excited for her daily walks and is a great traveler!  She greets people with ease as long as they approach with the same calm energy that she emits.  She seems non-reactive to other dogs and might do well with a mellow male dog.

This gorgeous girl is approximately 4 yrs old and weighs 57 lbs.  She is also crate and house trained.

She is ready to pledge her love and devotion!  Are you?!

 TOBI

We don't know much about Tobi's past, but his future is bright.  He is a big boy with a heart the size to match.  He is a gentle giant with a gregarious, carefree attitude and is eager to learn and experience the world. He is game for adventure and deserves to have that special someone to accompany him in life.

Tobi is playful and has a welcoming aura about him.  He also has an unabashed, confident side to him.  He's just not sure how he ended up here, and we're making sure he never has to wonder that ever again.

He is best as an only dog and someone with previous Akita experience is best.

Tobi is approximately 5 yrs old, and due to his size should be on a good quality joint supplement.  He's only been with us a short time, so will need to gain a few pounds to look his best, but he's already on his way to showing us his beautiful soul.

EMI

Emi’s sleek, brindle coat is a thing of beauty and so magnificent to behold.

Engaging, charismatic, gregarious, and spirited are the first things you sense about her from the moment she enters a room.  Emi exudes a brand of joy that makes her impossible to resist!

Not until you witness her graceful elegance and see a bit of frost around her muzzle, do you realize she is a senior beauty with an abundance of life experiences to share.

She’s 8 yrs old and has found herself homeless, but she’s seen enough in life to know there’s still a wonderous journey ahead.

She is a lover of people and she’d much rather be enjoying a fun adventure with you by her side on interesting walks or trips to the beach, than be left at home alone.  She needs to be an only dog and is not suitable with cats. 

She is approximately 60 lbs. and seems unaware she has some arthritis and hip dysplasia.  But as you can see, she enjoys playing with her toys and doing tricks for treats.  Her healthy curiosity keeps her engaged in life’s adventures, though she also loves her beauty naps.

Please don’t let her age deter you from considering giving her a home.  Her heart is overflowing with love.
