Pennsylvania Akita Dogs for Adoption

Urgent: This animal could be euthanized if not adopted soon.


Animal ID: Carbon Co REHOMINGPriscilla- URGENT (female)

Akita    Age: Senior

Personality: Average Energy, Average Temperament 
Health: Spayed, Needs Vaccinations 

    EXTREMELY URGENT - Priscilla is a 12yr old female- who has lived with her current owner for 11yrs. Prior to this owner- her first year of life was spent in a cage, without much socialization. The current home, she also did not get much socialization, as I am told. However, I understand there may have been grandkids around, however, at 12yrs of age w/out knowing her behavior w/ strangers, let alone strange children, I would say a household w/out children is probably best. Her compatibility with Cats and Other Dogs is Unknown, as far as I know- she has no experience with them. So probably not a good idea at 12yrs old to confuse the poor ... (Read More)girl. She is an extreme escape artist. I would suggest a fence or someone that can be with her most of the day. Also a candidate for this old gal, MUST have Akita experience. I am really trying to get her somewhere to live out her golden years, as she is already there. As you can see by her pic, she does appear to be on the smaller side for an Akita. I am told that she has not received any shots/vet care- however, did not appear to have the greatly noticeable joint issues I would expect for an Akita of this age. And did not seem to have any other visible medical issues. However, there has been no Veterinary Medical Evaluation on her. At this time- owner has a new job, and is unable to give the appropriate time and attention to this girl. Unfortunately, times are tight and we must try and get the right thing done for this old gal. As far as I have been told there is no room at local shelters, not to mention anyone familiar w/ the breed, knows this could be a death sentence for this poor old gal. They do not do well in shelters/caged environment, and being a senior w/out any real socialization- I fear for her outcome. I understand a couple breed specific rescues are being reached out to, but again, it is not a guarantee they can take her in. Her adoption fee will be waived to the best fit family. Please email me for a Pre-Adoption Questionnaire . Again , at this time, this is extremely URGENT- however, I am not willing to entertain getting her into a home with no experience with this breed, as that is a disaster waiting to happen, and could be dangerous for her or anyone involved. Once Pre-Adoption Questionnaire is answered, I will forward info to the parties involved w/ rehoming her. (Less)

PIease Read Before Adopting an Akita in Pennsylvania
    Akita Dogs can make good pets in Pennsylvania if they match your IifestyIe. The Akita Inu, or Japanese Akita, is a large Spitz-type breed of dog. Akitas are intelligent, companionable animals and make excellent guard dogs. Akitas are willful and need firm training. Akitas are protective of children in their own families, but may be aggressive toward outsiders and should be supervised with small kids. Akitas may bite if provoked; they need to be treated with gentleness and respect. Akitas can live in an apartment but do need sufficient exercise; they do best with a large yard.
