Cormick – 2 year old male Akita

Introducing Cormick, a handsome boy looking for a new home after finding himself in the pound. He seemed very eager to please, and knows some commands already. He does pull a bit on the lead initially, but responded well to our assessor’s correction so we think this should be easy to correct with a little training. He was initially wary of our assessor, but relaxed when out of his kennel, and enjoyed playing with a toy and interacting with her. He has shown no signs of toy or food guarding.

Cormick will need an owner who is experienced with larger breeds. He has not been tested with other dogs or cats as yet. If you think you could offer this lovely chap the new start he needs, please get in touch.

Cormick is currently in Leicestershire and is 2 years old, if you are interested in him please contact Julie – 07738638091 – julie@friendsofakitas.co.uk or Nicola – 07786433545 –nicola@friendsofakitas.co.uk .

Nanook – 2 year old male Akita

Meet Nanook, a stunning boy who is being rehomed due to a change in his current owners working patterns. Nanook is a friendly and loyal Akita and his current owners feel that he deserves to be in a home where he isn’t left alone so much. He is a well mannered, gentle and responsive boy who was happy to demonstrate his sit, paw and lie down at assessment. He takes treats gently and has no protection issues at all around food and his toys. He enjoys a fuss and is happy to roll over on to his back for a tummy tickle.

Nanook is a confident boy and when out and about walking he is interested in everything that is happening around him, he is lead trained and walked well for our assessor with very little pulling, he is responsive when corrected. Although until recently Nanook has lived with another dog, he can be selective about his canine companions so the decision to rehome him with a female companion would be based on the success at introduction stage. Nanook has never had experience of living with children so we will not place him in a home with young children. He is not cat friendly.

Is this laid back boy the one that you are looking for? If you think so, please get in touch.

Nanook is currently in Lancashire and is 2 years old, if you are interested in him please contact Julie – 07738638091 – julie@friendsofakitas.co.uk or Nicola – 07786433545 –nicola@friendsofakitas.co.uk .

Massey – 4 year old male Akita

Introducing Massey, a stunning boy looking for a new home after finding himself in the pound. Massey is a typical Akita – a little aloof but loves to have a fuss! He has shown no signs of toy or food guarding. He does know some basic commands and was keen to demonstrate them to our assessor, with this in mind he should be easy to train. Massey does pull somewhat on the lead and this will need some work from his new owners.

As Massey has come to us as a stray, we have no previous history on him so we will not rehome him to a family with young children. He has not been cat or dog tested as yet but this will be further assessed now he is safe in our foster care.

If you think you could be the one to offer this lovely boy a new home, please get in touch!

Zeus – 4 year old male Akita

Introducing Zeus, a friendly boy looking for a new home following a change in his owner’s circumstances. This big, beautiful boy is very calm and docile, and enjoys a fuss and being groomed. He walks well on the lead, and has shown no signs of food or toy guarding, but does love to play. Zeus is housetrained and non destructive and is used to being left alone for a few hours per day.

Zeus is friendly to all dogs and he currently lives with a German Shepherd so could be rehomed with a female companion. Zeus is untested with cats. Although Zeus does not live with children, the household has many that visit and Zeus has always been good with them, with this in mind a home with dog aware children would be considered.

On meeting our assessor, he sat and gave her a paw and was rewarded with a biscuit which he took gently. She described Zeus as a lovely example of the breed and a calm and friendly lad.

Zeus’ situation is urgent, if you think you may be able to offer him a new home, please contact us as soon as possible.

Zeus is currently in County Durham and is 4 years old, if you are interested in him please contact Julie – 07738638091 – julie@friendsofakitas.co.uk or Nicola – 07786433545 – nicola@friendsofakitas.co.uk .

Harley – 10 year old male Akita

Introducing Harley, a stunning older male looking for a new home following a change in his owner’s circumstances. He is a very chilled out boy, who isn’t too bothered about playing and shows no signs of food or toy aggression. Harley does have hip dysplasia which requires regular medication, but otherwise doesn’t seem to bother him much beyond a few occasional aches and stiffness. He has always lived outside and as such will need some help with his house training. Harley pulls on the lead as he is not used to regular walks, but this will be improved with training.

Harley has not been socialised with other dogs so will need to be the only dog his new home, and is not cat tested. He is used to children visiting the home and there have never been any problems so we would consider placing him in a home with older dog aware children.

If you think you could be the one to offer this lovely gent a new home in his twilight years, please get in touch.

Harley is currently in West Yorkshire and is 10 years old, if you are interested in him please contact Julie – 07738638091 – julie@friendsofakitas.co.uk or Nicola – 07786433545 –nicola@friendsofakitas.co.uk .
