Freya is a 3 year old Akita Cross. She is looking for a home with owners experienced with various breeds of dogs, preferably the Akita breed. She’s a nice girl who doesn’t realise her own strength! She would need to be the only dog in the home. She loves her toys and can become quite focused on them, so a toybox would be ideal and she must learn to trade one for another. She could live with teenagers aged 14 or older. She does know how to sit and is an intelligent girl who could learn lots more. It’s important that she goes to a home with people who are willing to carry on her training.
Bear – 7 month old male Akita cross German Shepherd Dog
Bear is a lovable happy and cuddly 7 month old Akita cross German Shepherd Dog and is currently on foster in Carmarthenshire. He is on foster with other dogs but tends to be too boisterous for the smaller dogs, we think a home with a confident larger breed female would be best; one that will take none of his nonsense. He can be a bit growly with other dogs when food is around, but seems fine with toys. Bear is on foster with cats at the moment and very interested in them in an “I want to play” way , unfortunately due to his size and over-enthusiasm this kind of play will probably be dangerous to both parties! He doesn’t show interest in chickens (although they are fenced off) and is respectful of horses.
Bear is a strong boy and as he fills out likely to get stronger so an experienced owner committed to ongoing training and socialisation is needed. He will benefit from consistent kind but firm handling. Due to Bears over-enthusiasm and bounciness we are looking for a home with teenage children only. He has basic sit/give paw training and his recall is described at the moment as reasonable. If Bear can get his paws over something he will get over it so a well secured garden area is a must. He will chew things if bored so someone home most of the day is best and although he likes car travel he can be sick, this should improve with more trips out.
All Hope Rescue dogs are neutered, vaccinated, wormed, flea treated and microchipped prior to rehoming. A homecheck will be required, and you will need to come and meet the dog with your own dogs and family.

Sky – 3 year old male Akita
This is Sky and he is a 3 year old male Akita,looking for a new home after being found as a stray in Humberside. Described by our assessors as “happy and confident”, after being in a kennel for seven days, Sky was more than content to be out in the fresh air for a walk! Sky enjoyed being stroked, relaxing into a typical Akita lean; was fine with being brushed and even gave a bit of a wagg in return for some cuddles!
Not particularly food motivated, the kennel staff report that Sky has not shown any signs of food possession and is happy for his bowl to be handled. With a basic knowledge of commands and quite strong on the lead, Sky could do with some further training, however he demonstrated a willingness to learn.
As a stray without history, Sky has not as yet been tested with other animals, and will not be placed in a home with young children. Could Sky be the boy for you? Please get in touch with FOA.

This is Yogi, a cute 2 year old Akita Cross looking for a new home due to his owners being forced to leave their property. An energetic, fun and playful dog, who spends most of his time outdoors, Yogi wore out assessor playing football and tug! Having a basic knowledge of commands, Yogi will sit when asked, however he is more reluctant to lie down! On the lead Yogi pulls initially in excitement, but soon settles down to a good pace. Our assessor found yogi to be responsive to commands and correction, and feels that he would respond well to further training in a new home.
Lovable and friendly, Yogi currently lives with two small children who he adores and could live with children again with the right family. Socialised with some dogs, Yogi gets on well with his neighbours Jack Russel, with this in mind Yogi could potentially live with another dog, subject to successful introductions. Yogi’s owner is sad to be in this position, and describes Yogi as a dog who wants to “share the love”! Has Yogi caught your eye? Please get in touch.
Yogi is currently living in the West Midlands, however, this information is subject to change, please visit our website which is updated regularly
