Young 1 year old female Akita
Unfortunately we have came to the extremely hard decision that we are going to have to rehome our beautiful Akita. She is half and half (Japanese and American) Akita, is 1 on July 16th, and has not yet been spayed, we would require the new owners to be willing to do this though, we will not allow anyone to take her who we believe will use her for breeding purposes!!! She has a temperament associated with most Akita dogs- loyal, protective, energetic, and loving (but on her terms, lol!) the problem is she suffers greatly with separation anxiety, and will become distressed when left to the point of chewing whatever she is in the room with, we have lost carpet, couches, cushions and even the bottom of a door through this behaviour, and as we have 3 children and must often leave the house without her it means that we usually will come home and be met with the result of her destructive behaviour. We feel that we must be honest with this, as whomever will take her on will need to do so knowing that we have tried very hard to train this behaviour out of her, to no avail. I feel that she would be best suited to a house with no other pets nor children, and with people who will either be at home most of the time and able to walk her several times a day, or can find a solution to her anxiety and destruction. She is also a howler, very wolf like in that regard, so again the new owner would need to be understanding on this. She has had all her vaccinations, has been microchipped, and is up to date with flea and working treatments. We have come to this decision with heavy hearts, we adore her, but it's just not fair to us nor her to stay with us, so rest assured that she will not just be going home with the first person that takes an interest, we feel that we have every right to interview ans background check those that wish to take on new ownership. Those that message with a simple 'we want the dog' will be ignored, this is not the type of flippant attitude that makes for a good dog owner. Experience with Akitas is preferable, as they are a very different breed from most other dogs, being more closely linked with the wolf. Price asked is non negotiable, those that are serious about taking her on will not seek to barter on price. Ad ID:
