 | Rescue Me ID: 16-07-12-00315Vinny (male)
Will you save this beautiful boy? Vinny spent about 6 weeks in his rescuer's home. He played with the older boys and the male boxer. His rescuer said he needed exercise and boundaries but he was a great guy. When he arrived at the shelter, he was friendly and loved to play with the volunteers but he wasn't so friendly with a couple of the other dogs. Vinny started having a few behavior problems so the volunteers attended a training session and worked on ways for Vinny to be more successful in the shelter. After five months, we realized that shelter life was not for Vinny; so we are now boarding him at K-9 Heeler. It is a more relaxed setting ... (Read More)and he is doing great. It wouldn't be right to bring Vinny back to the shelter, but he needs to be adopted soon. To meet Vinny call 281-259-8382 between 9am-4pm or email dogs@aartomball.org. Weight: 72 lbs Est.

Fostering in Houston, Texas Not Cat Friendly A long while back, While most of you slept, LSAR had a trapper out in Katy, Texas to catch a hurt Akita boy, now named Eliot! At 3am trapper volunteer, Eliot Smith snuck up on Akita Eliot, coming down wind so he wouldn't give off a scent that would awaken the precious pooch. Human Eliot was able to get this boy for us and hold on to him through the night to get him to our foster. We got all hands on deck to help get this baby cleaned up, cheered up, well, and start life over! Upper left hand corner picture is of Eliot running wild in Katy, TX. The next three pictures are of him being ... (Read More)trapped... and not to his liking, the bottom picture is of Eliot decompressing in foster home.

 | Rescue Me ID: 16-04-24-00268ROCKY (male)
Please excuse the pink and purple leashes and collars, he's all boy, rescuers use whatever is handy in a pinch! Rocky was dumped at the Mesquite, TX animal shelter, a high kill shelter, and LSAR saved him two hours before what would have been the end for Rocky! Rocky was dumped by his very own BREEDER - the very person who was supposed to protect Rocky and be his advocate for life! His owner claimed he was aggressive so he was labeled as such, which he is NOT, and locked away from people in a quarantine room, often muzzled, with NO CHANCE to meet a possible adopter! LSAR found out about this sad kid and stepped in fast to save him with ... (Read More)the help of transport volunteer Cindy Weyandt. What we found when we got to Rocky, not knowing what to expect, was a terrified lonely young man in desperate need of help! He was simply too scared to even sniff his treats or acknowledge his one and only visitor! He was muzzled so that a collar could be put on him to lead him to his freedom. We quickly realized this guy had NO NEED for a muzzle and it was removed - he was simply terrified! He made it halfway down the hall to freedom and he completely shut down, maybe for fear he was being taken to the room where unspeakable things happen. But this was not the case - we were saving him. For over an hour, he refused to stand or budge at all. Volunteer Cindy laid on the floor with him, holding his face, stroking him and telling him that everything would be ok, LSAR was committed to finding his happily ever after. Rocky, still in despair, unwilling to move, had given up the will to go on. But we believed there was that Akita spirit somewhere deep inside this poor soul! Three shelter staff/volunteers decided to make a makeshift gurney for Rocky out of towels and helped Cindy carry him out of the shelter and gently place him in his rescue ride. Poor Rocky was shaking uncontrollably. By now it was obvious, poor Rocky had lived his entire life without socialization and every single thing that had happened to him in the last 24 hours was a completely new experience without the support of his family who was supposed to be there for him but instead dumped him to die alone! Once the vehicle was moving for 30 minutes, Rocky's shaking lessened and he was growing more comfortable and less terrified. By the time Cindy arrived to drop Rocky off, he was a little more Akita like in his behavior. LSAR is currently getting Rocky full vetted. Please considering opening your heart and maybe even your home to Rocky! Thank you! For an application email lonestarakitarescue@aol.com Rocky is located in Arlington, TX.

Since Trucker is one chill dude he decided to stick around for a bit. The attendant at the store said Trucker was very sweet and just laid by the door so he could greet customers!

UPDATE: APRIL 2016 Princess is now in great health, she is has gained weight, is most dog friendly and a super people lover! She is still being treated for heartworm but the meds are doing great! --------------------------------------- Princess nearly lost her life because she was afraid. The staff at Harris County thinks she's 1 year old. Why do they think and not know? Because her owner did not tell them anything about her. They did not tell the staff why she whimpers in pain, why she did not want them to touch or examine her. They did not explain why she is so thin that her bones stick out. They just left, her because they didn't have ... (Read More)time for her anymore. Princess has been shared on the web for days - pleas have gone out 'Please help Princess' - but the shelter staff did not have the best things to say about her - they did not understand that she fought them because she was in pain - so much pain that she simply whimpered all the time and could not bear a caring touch. They did not know that her supposed aggression was pain and fear - but thanks to Lone Star Akita Rescue now they do. LSAR sent a caring patient Akita savvy volunteer in to meet this petite girl. What they found surprised everyone - once she was out of the run she was full of kisses...even for another nosy dog who came right up to her face. But she hurts, it was easy to see. She arches her back a bit from pain and won't hold her tail up.

Hi my name is Leah. I am a really good girl. I was so special, I got to be a mom! I used to be really depressed because when Animal Control picked me up, I didn't get my babies. I have no idea what happened to them. Then I got even more scared because I could smell the bad room at jail. Everyone talks about what happens in there - how so many dogs and cats go in and none come back out. We all tried to show off every time people walked by so that they would pick up and we wouldn't end up in the bad room. Then all of a sudden, they came to get me and no people had walked by looking for dogs and I was so scared it was my time in the bad room. ... (Read More)BUT instead they took me back out front and said I had a rescue. I have no idea what that means.... so I went to another place and they took all my lady parts so I can't be a mom anymore. That really upset me but they say that's what you have to do in rescue to have a FUREVER family and that's what I want most of all. I am waiting in boarding now for that forever family but no one has come yet. I am so good, just ask this crazy boarding guy how good I am! He says I am one of the best behaved dogs here! I hope you find me soon. I can't wait to meet you! ~ Love Leah Leah has been rescued after ending up at the Montgomery County Animal Shelter after giving birth to some puppies. Sadly, mama Leah showed up alone at the shelter with no known where-abouts of her pups. Thanks to cross-posters, generous pledgers and with an assist from the Texas Sled Dog Rescue mama Leah has been rescued!! Leah has already been fully vetted by LSAR and it wouldn't hurt for her to have a foster family... she'll need someone liberal with the treats :) (Less) Lone Star Akita Rescue Hunt County Dallas, TX MAP IT!

My name is Princess and I am staying in a boarding facility in Alvaredo, TX until I find a home. I really don't like it here. The boarding guy is funny and seems to like me but I so want my own home and yard back without all of these dogs around. He even tells me I am perfect but no one has adopted me yet so I don't know if that's true. I had a family in Fort Worth but they didn't want me anymore. The put me on Craigslist. I don't know what that means but I have heard it is really bad and bad things happen to dogs given away on a Craigslist. My family ended up letting me go or dumping me, the rescue isn't sure so I found people all by myself ... (Read More)at an apartment complex where there were lots to pick from. I thought I did a good job and was so proud! It was raining outside and the lady let me sleep inside with her and her husband and baby. I was on my best behavior because I was sure I found a new home. The next morning she put me back outside when she went to work. My family did that too so I was used to it and waited and waited for her to come back so she could see how happy I was to see her and how good I was for waiting for her but she never returned. The lady across the complex saw me sitting in the rain and called rescue. The rescue asked her to get me to come inside and they would come get me. I wasn't sure, I wanted to stand my post waiting for my new mom but then she called my name so I figured I had gotten confused picking my new mom. The rescue told her my name so they could see if I was the girl on Craigslist - it was me! I ran to her and went inside and they came and got me and took me to boarding, I felt tricked! The next day it got worse, they took me to a vet and he kept poking me. They said they had to be sure I was ready for adoption and that once I got all my vaccines and chip a family would want me. So I did it all but I still have no family - can you help them find me please? I have been w kids and love all people, I am great in a crate and on a leash and love car rides but I prefer to keep my humans to myself and don't want to share with another dog. Please help me find my forever humans! Thank you! Love~Princess For Adoption Applications please email LoneStarAkitaRescue@aol.com (Less) Lone Star Akita Rescue Hunt County Dallas, TX MAP IT!

Hachi was used by his former owner as a stud, but they couldn't contain him and he kept getting loose to find some more girlfriends. Because of this he ended up at the Lake Jackson SPCA who sent him to LSAR. The SPCA said that he was too stressed after being with them for several months and was digressing. LSAR has found him a foster home so he can learn what real love is while waiting for his forever family. They learned that Hachi is a very smart boy and eager to please! Hachi lives with a male and female dog in Foster and does great with them. The previous rescue says he was fine with cats, we have not tested him. How he gets along ... (Read More)with children is unknown. For an Adoption Application email LoneStarAkitaRescue@aol.com (Less) Lone Star Akita Rescue Hunt County Dallas, TX MAP IT!

My name is GG. I am about 5 years old. I am located in Greenville, TX. I have lived almost my whole life in rescue. I have never ever been in a home and lots of people have overlooked me so I am beginning to think it is not going to happen for me. I have seen so many other Akitas come and go and get homes and I don't know what they have that I don't have. I have waited YEARS and never gotten a chance, no one even asks about me. Do you know what's wrong with me? I'll really try to do it better if someone would just tell me what I did wrong! Maybe it's because I want all of my future human's attention but I've never had a chance to get ... (Read More)socialized because I have always lived in a boarding pen. If someone would teach me, I would really try hard to learn how to do it if that would get me a chance at a home, I promise! I hope everyone sees that I truly am a good girl and trying really hard so they give me a chance.I promise I'll be on my best behavior if I can find family. Thank you for sharing me and helping me find them. Desperately, GG. Email for Application: LoneStarAkitaRescue@aol.com (Less) Lone Star Akita Rescue Hunt County Dallas, TX MAP IT!

My name is Clarissa. I am located in Dallas. I have lived almost my whole life in rescue. I had been in rescue a couple of years when my dad adopted me. We were pretty happy together for about a year and then he said I had to go live somewhere else. He took me to a friend's house and moved out of the country. The friend dumped me in boarding and Lone Star Akita Rescue came back to get me. I was sad for a long time thinking he would come back but then when the rescue appeared I knew he was gone for good. Since that happened, I've been working on me trying to be a really good girl. I used to hate other dogs but I know lots of adopters have ... (Read More)them so I've been trying to do better, even if they are really annoying. I even get along w some dogs okay- if they are submissive we will get along. I hope everyone sees that I am a good girl and trying really hard so they give me a chance. I promise I'll be on my best behavior again if I can find another family. I love people! Thank you for sharing me and helping me find them. Respectfully ~ Clarissa Ask for an Adoption Application LoneStarAkitaRescue@aol.com (Less) Lone Star Akita Rescue Hunt County Dallas, TX MAP IT!

My name is Herman, I am an Akita/mix, one of my ears is up and the other one flops, I am silly and goofy and don`t really have manners yet, but we are working on it. I love to lick everybody and get very excited. I am good with other dogs through the fence, but I am lacking social skills and with all the excitement I kinda get in trouble. If somebody could really teach me how to behave, I will be the best boy ever. I have some nasty heartworms, but I am on slow kill and those nasty things will be gone soon! I`d love to meet you soon URGENT ANIMALS OF HEARNE ROBERTSON COUNTY TEXAS Robertson County Hearne, TX MAP IT!

| PIease Read Before Adopting an Akita in Texas | |||||||||
Akita Dogs can make good pets in Texas 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.
