MAX- ADOPTED!!

After purchasing Max from a breeder, his family realized an energetic Akita puppy with needle sharp puppy teeth was not appropriate for their young daughter nor their experience level.  The breeder's advice on how to manage this puppy behavior was to "Hit him on the nose".  Needless to say Max's family sought out other options instead of returning Max to his breeder.
 
Here is what our foster home says about Max:
 
“Would you like to meet the cutest sweetest happiest little guy?  He is three months old and is so smart. He knows how to sit, shake and lay down. He also comes when you call him! He loves to take showers and get nice and clean, so he’s all ready for his belly rubs. He loves his big foster sister, and they play all day long very gently. He is crate trained and we are working on potty training and he’s doing very well. He always goes poopy outside and let’s you know...so he’s got that down! He’s such a wonderful little guy. If we didn’t already have a big giant Akita, he would be our guy for sure. He will add joy to your family, and he’s the best companion. He’s very social and loves to meet and greet the neighbors with kisses and wags. Max is the best Puppy ever!”
 
**AKITA EXPERIENCED HOME REQUIRED FOR MAX.  Max's new family will have to be home most of the time, ie: work from home or have flexible hours.  He cannot be left at home alone for long hours, as he will need continued socialization, training and enrichment with his people.  He will require a committed and dedicated family to raise him.

RIKKA - ADOPTED!!

All play and no work makes Rikka a very happy girl!

Rikka has worked at becoming an A+ student.  She’s learned all her basic commands and manners, and even knows how to roll over and fetch!  She’s whip smart and becomes goofy with joy and zoomies when it’s time to learn something new!

All who meet her laugh and smile at her infectious bliss.  She is irresistible and knows it!  Before you know it, she’s got you where she wants  you!  She aims to please because she knows belly rubs and ear scrunches will be her hard earned reward.

Rikka is about 2 yrs old.  She was very shy and apprehensive when she first came to us.  She lacked socialization and exposure to the world.  With regular interactions with different people on a daily basis and playing and socializing with other dogs, her effervescent spirit has emerged! 

She’s come a long way but it would not be complete until her forever home is found.  We would love for her to have a family of her own and a life of adventure and positive experiences.  She would do best with someone who can spend time with her to ensure she continues to practice socialization skills, meeting new people and learning about the world.

If you are interested in adopting Rikka, please complete our adoption application in the link below.

Akita experience is required.

TADEO - AVAILABLE

Tadeo is the complete package.

On the outside he is a flashy red/black brindle with deep expressive eyes, weighing approximately 50 lbs.

On the inside he is the essence of affection and vivaciousness with a sprinkling of puppy mischief, and it’s what makes him completely irresistible!

At approx 2 years old, he loves to play with his canine buddies but at the end of the day, everything’s alright with the world when he is snuggling with his humans.  He is a master cuddler and will mesmerize you with his adoring eyes and loving mannerisms.

When we rescued Tadeo from the shelter, we felt confident he was an Akita/Chow mix.  There was no denying his blue Chow tongue, but he had many Akita characteristics.  Much to our surprise his DNA test said he has no Akita genes!  It makes no difference to us!  For you Akita lovers, if you’re looking for a Northern breed with a stunning coat and outstanding temperament, don’t let his lack of Akita genes deter you because you don’t need any test to know his DNA is 100% lover!

He is a staff favorite at the kennel, but what we pray for is a forever home for Tadeo before the holidays so he can experience the love and joy of having his own family.

We are looking to place him in a home with someone with Northern breed experience.  Tadeo is a people dog, however as is true to his breed mix he and can be protective of them and will bark to alert you of strangers approaching.

Because he’s still a pup, he needs someone who is home and can commit to a training and socialization program to keep him on the right path to maintaining his incredible temperament.

If you are interested in Tadeo, please complete our adoption application in the link below.

TORA - ADOPTED!

Tora is a stunning one year old Japanese Akita imported from Argentina.  He is located in Northern, CA.  Please have prior Akita experience to be considered.  He is a striking red brindle, weighing 65 lbs.  He’s young and playful and has some basic training under his belt, but is still learning.

Like all young Akitas, Tora will require consistency, ongoing training and plenty of socialization to become a well-rounded adult Akita. An experienced Akita home is required in order to give Tora the best chance at becoming a great ambassador for the breed.

He is a typical Akita in that he loves to be with his person and give affection, however he is also very independent. 

Tora will not be suitable in a home with children, small dogs or cats.  He would be best as the only dog in the home due to some resource guarding with food around other dogs. 

Tora has some mild separation anxiety so would excel in a home where someone is home or where he can see the world with you!  Tora would love to have a backyard of his own and a doggy door so he can explore.

He would blossom with an active family that loves the outdoors, hiking and going on adventures.  He even knows how to paddleboard!  He also enjoys settling at your feet while you’re on the computer or watching TV.

Tora is not a Namaste Akita Rescue orphan , however we are assisting the owner with the application process.  Tora is being placed directly by his current owner.

If you are interested in adopting Tora, please complete the adoption application and submit it to:

KITA - ADOPTED!

Kita is a gorgeous 2 yr old female Akita located in Northern, CA.  Please have prior Akita experience to be considered.

Kita has had a fair amount of training and excelled.  She is house trained, kennel trained, knows commands for, no, heel, come/break, sit and down.  She weighs 72 lbs, is current on her vaccinations and has no special needs.  Kita is affectionate with her people, intelligent, loyal and an excellent guard dog.  She is very protective of her home and will not accept other animals in her home.

She would be best in a home with an active lifestyle where she can enjoy the outdoors with her family.  Her new owner will be required to have prior Akita experience and understand the special characteristics of the breed.

Kita is not good with small dogs and cats and has a high prey drive.  Kita is just entering the prime of her life.  She will need an Akita savvy guardian who can provide structure and continue her training so she can be the best version of herself.  She should be placed in an adult only home with previous breed experience.

Kita is not a Namaste Akita Rescue orphan, but we are assisting in the application process.  Approved adopters will adopt directly from Kita’s owner.   There is a $150.00 adoption fee.
