     I adopted Yoshi in February 2017 from this site. She is a great dog. Due to my declining health I had to re-home her 13 months later. I used this site and had many favorable responses. She was adopted today by a young man with a nice home and experience with dogs of her type. We were sad to let her go but very happy she has a good home to go to. Thank you, Rescue Me!

     When we saw Oishii on the website we fell in love with him. After several contacts with his owners they came to meet us and see the place. Oishii stayed with us. I cannot think of our lives without him now. He is a big part of our family and such a sweet dog. Thank you, Rescue Me!

     I am so grateful to the donors and dedicated people who set up this web site. I received two calls for locating families interested in my pet within a week of posting on Rescue Me. Giving up my pet is one of the hardest things I have ever done, so knowing that she will be going to a loving home, who know the Akita breed, has made this process a little easier.

'Akina' is now treated like a queen and has all the attention she deserves. Thank you, Rescue Me!

     My one half year old Akita Male, Dioji, came home to live with us. He is the most beautiful, loving dog I have seen in some time. He gets along with our other dogs, cats, and people. He is so playful and shadows me everywhere I go. He is very protective. I couldn't ask for a better, more loyal friend. Thank you Rescue Me .

     Hooray for Kinako, the Moku (long-coat) Japanese Akita, who was abandoned and ended up in the shelter. A Passion for Paws rescued her and now she has hit the rescue dog JACKPOT! They love the idea of lots of grooming... That and BOWS. There is no doubt Kinako will be a very spoiled girl! Thank you, Rescue Me.

     Thank you for allowing us to use your wonderful website to find our Scooter Bearz the perfect home. It was traumatic for us to even consider giving up our beloved Akita 'Scooter Bearz' due to job change which required us to relocate to another state where we were unable to find housing that would accept Akitas. Because of your caring and devotion to these wonderful creations, we were able to meet many passionate and devoted Akita owners that truly cared about the welfare of our beloved pet and shared the same passion for this breed that we do. These people were such a blessing to us. Through Rescue Me, we were blessed to find the perfect home and companions for our Scooter Bearz and they have been sharing pictures, via text and email, of theirs and Scooters new adventures together. Although we are still missing Scooter terribly, we know that he is in the best possible home for him as these new owners have raised Akitas and also train them to be service dogs (although Scooter has become their beloved new companion and will remain in their home permanently). As you know, Akitas require special care and handling and this husband and wife team are very familiar with those special needs. We feel confident that Scooter Bearz is where he needs to be and we have been graciously welcomed to visit him at their home whenever we want to. This could have only happened because of your passion to build this website and match the perfect owners with their new companions. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You have no idea what a blessing that your endeavor has been to us. May God Bless you always. Sherry and Dennis

     Thank you Rescue Me! Our beloved dog found a home with a couple who had already owned three Akitas and wanted another now that their kids had left home. We know he is in good hands and will be well loved and cared for. Thank you for making this difficult transition smooth and for providing the medium to connect with Kade's new family.

     Kuma has a new home on his new farm. He has settled right in at home, although he is still learning his puppy limits. We take long walks through the woods and fields exploring. He finds it hard to contain all the excitement of discovering new animals everywhere. Right now everything is very icy which makes for hard walking and digging, but that will change soon. He loves to meet new friends and rides very well. He has a very big appetite and is growing like a weed. He is going to be a big boy for sure. He has a beautiful tail curl and an equally beautiful coat. He doesn't like to be left out of anything which is fine. Soon, we will be getting back to field work and getting new piglets. That will be interesting for sure. Having Kuma on the farm is a blessing. He is a great joy to have around. He is the third Akita to have lived here, and he will love it as much as Kalie and Tucker did. He is home now. Thanks, Rescue Me.

     My four year old Akita female, Dakota, came home to live with us. She is the most beautiful, loving dog I have seen in some time. She gets along with our other dogs, cats, and alpacas. She is so playful and shadows me everywhere I go. She is very protective. I couldn't ask for a better, more loyal friend. Thank you Rescue Me and the foster person that took such great care of her.

     Princess finally got a forever home a few weeks ago through Rescue Me. She now has her own family, her own home and yard. Her yard is big enough for her to fully run and play. I waived the adoption fee cause her new family was so sweet and kind, I just knew they would take really good care of her and have her till the end of time. As soon as she saw them, she started kissing all over them all. She knew she was finally home. She was such a great dog and will be sadly missed. Thank you for this site that made all this possible for her.

     Cocoa and Cutie were a bonded pair of four year old female Akitas in need of a home where they could stay together... A tall order for such large dogs. I received several responses from their posting on Rescue Me and found the right home. The girls went to an experienced, loving family who will take truly wonderful care of them. I am so thrilled and impressed that Rescue Me was the resource that ultimately got these girls adopted. I had the girls on other, more widely known sites as well as Akita specific rescue sites, and didn't get much response. So happy to have Rescue Me as a resource!

He loves our two other dogs, a Dachshund, and our other 15 month old Akita. he is a very spoiled puppy. So glad I get these alerts for Akitas from Rescue Me. Thank you.

     I am very obliged to Rescue Me for providing the wonderful assistance in finding Chester (Akita - German Shepherd) a new loving family. There were many inquiries, and the mixed feelings regarding giving away to a loving pet who was a rambunctious family member. Chester had so many good qualities, but was too high energy and strong for this ole grandmother. He liked to 'play attack' and bite elbows, heels, rip through sweatshirts, almost pushed me off the cliff to the lake one evening. He tore up chairs and plants, computer cords, shoes, chewed on the deck, took off my grandson's socks, bit my son three times while guarding his food bowl. The neighbors were upset with him barking in the middle of the night when he saw a deer and had to protect our property. Also, my neighbor lady had fractured her hip three times and feared Chester. He was happy to see her and wanted to jump on her to say, 'HI' until she acknowledged him, which she wouldn't. I worried that he would cause her to fall again. Chester also dug holes all over the yard, burying bones... and I twisted my ankle more than once. Chester, 60 pounds, was so wild that we separated him from our elderly Yorkie, (unless supervised indoors.) One day the little one was let out downstairs, not realizing Chester was outside upstairs....and he ran so fast, pounced on our Yorkie trying to play, and paralyzed him. After 10 days of Vet appointments, a pain patch, syringe feeding, repositioning, administering anti-inflammatory and pain medications, he started bleeding out and had to be euthanized. He was my son's dog who slept with him half of his life. A few days later his Dad, age 65, died of cancer. Sad times. On Chester's first birthday he ran out on the icy lake, wouldn't listen to commands to return. He fell through and struggled in the frigid water. I had to call 911 and six fireman rescued him by canoe. His story was on the 10 pm News. Over the year we lived with Chester, I tried and tried to calm him, but just couldn't provide the excitement he needed. He would have to sit and wait for days while I worked several 12 hour night shifts at the hospital, and slept during the days. Of course, he hated being confined and contained. Now, thanks to Rescue Me, we found a great family with seven children (youngest age 13), who live on three acres with a pond. They love to hike and go to the White River where Chester will still be able to swim and retrieve and explore. He has two outside smaller dogs with him, is free to romp and roam. I inquired when I met the family, if barking would be a problem. They stated there are no close neighbors, but all of the dogs in the woods bark, so no one minds. Their daughter is a Vet Assistant and provides medication and care for all of the animals, so I know he will be well taken care of. Chester needed a strong male in charge so he would not feel the need to be Leader of the Pack. I appreciate Rescue Me so much for helping find a fantastic situation with lots of attention for my beautiful Chester.

     I was in need of a buddy for our Akita that we rescued from a homeless couple (he was their begging tool) about eight months ago. After a long search, I came across Kita on the Rescue Me site. She was a couple of states away, but I decided why not take the trip and let the two dogs meet. The previous owners turned out to have rescued Kita from the streets and brought her back to great health, knowing they wanted to find her a good home. To make a long story short, the two dogs got along great, and now we are all home together. Thank you to all who were involved in this adoption. We couldn't be happier.

     Hi Jeff, Keiko got adopted to a nice loving owner who has a companion name Rio. Rio and Keiko get along great. He now lives in the mountains in Colorado. He has plenty of room to roam outside and explore. I couldn't be happier for him. He has a amazing new family, and because of Rescue Me!, he now has a wonderful home. This was my last resort with finding the right agency, rescue places, or sanctuary that specialized in this breed. The minute I put up his information, I got a response from someone who inquired about him. I would highly recommend this site! Keiko is now in a wonderful, amazing home with an amazing owner who takes excellent care of him, and will love him just as much as I do. Thanks to this organization!

     I absolutely love the Rescue Me! website. My rescue dog Ginger found her forever home tonight. She was a beautiful red Akita mix. She happily went home with a young couple who were looking for a companion for their German Shepherd puppy. Although they had looked at other dogs, their Shepherd really responded to Ginger and they were instant friends. Ginger was very happy and exited and hopped right in the car with them when it was time to go. This was her signal to me that she had finally found her forever home. Thank you, Rescue Me!, I will be back with my next rescue...

I was so surprised how quickly word got out to several different states, with individuals who were just looking for the perfect companion, or extra addition to a loving family. The decision to put this little sweetheart up for adoption was tough enough. The hard part was finding the right owners, having faith that he will be loved all his life, and cared for. I am eternally grateful for this website's service. Little, young puppy Kronos the Akita was successfully rescued by us, and adopted by an individual looking for a life long companion!

     Dear Jeff, Asia's story starts very sadly and has ended in such great success.... My husband was at a shelter when Asia was brought it... she had been tied to a tree and her family had moved away and left her, a neighbor noticed her, realized she had been abandoned and brought her in. Being she did not respond well to other animals. Euthanization was their ONLY option so he brought her home. As she matured she has become very agitated by neighboring animals and on 2 occasions actually attacked the neighbor's dog going through a 6 ft privacy fence leaving us with 2 options find a home that addressed Asia's needs or have her put down. By this time she has been a part of our family for 3 years so we were in heartbreaking distress over the situation. I listed Asia and waited having to keep her confined to our garage or tied other than walks. I was so afraid of scams and have seen many reports on animal testing and fighting. I talked to several people and by God's grace Asia has found her new family and a home that understands her needs. Thank you for this beautiful sight. I tell everyone I know to check out your site for adoptions and pray you continue to be successful.

     Dear Jeff, I would like to thank you for this beautiful website. I tried flyers I put them in the news paper I even asked friends & family to help if they even knew anyone & nothing. I came across your website looking for shelters for my babies because 4 Akitas was just too many for my house. But the shelter was not the option I wanted to go. I saw RESCUE ME & thought to give it a try. To my surprise I was able to find both Nena & Gunner a great home. They are with beautiful people that spoiled them before they even arrived to their new home. (toys, bed, collars, a throw cover for in the car) you name it they went & got it. It is such a blessing to find great people to take in my babies. The 1st day I put them up on RESCUE ME it was pretty late by the time I woke up in the morning I had so many people emailing me. It was so hard everyone seem really good. Within a week and a half of posting they found their new home. They left yesterday 10-08-12. Now they have the space to run around & play they were adopted together. I could not ask for better people for my babies. Thank You Gerard Dello & your Wife for the room in your hearts for my special babies & Thank You again Jeff for your website. Love Demary in PA PS will be making a donation soon.

Sender: Riki-Lynn Goll     Date: September 4, 2012 _
     Hi! My name is Riki and we got our Akita at just 9 weeks! We sadly, were not a good fit for an Akita! Our dog, Arkouda, was extremely smart, loyal, happy, and LOVING. He just wasn't fond of children other than our own (and by children I mean under the age of 12ish) Our house is very busy and we have MANY children in and out... so we had to put him up for adoption! We were very weary of scams though, because many people want these dogs to fight them. So, I just asked a lot of questions... and really weeded people out, through what information they were willing to give. I wanted Veterinarian references and pictures of the home... meet the people... etc.... Well 6 months later... we found a home! And it is the best fit! The people who adopted him have kept in touch are willing to keep me informed! They've even emailed pictures of them together! My dog (well THEIR dog) seems happier than he's ever been! He lives on a ranch, where someone always is... there is a river, land, and friends! Thank you to the Akita Rescue site for all of your help!

     Jeff- Hiro was adopted by a WONDERFUL older gentleman on a farm that had lost his own Akita to diabetes last March. You wouldn't believe (or maybe you would) what an incredible blessing this has been for EVERYONE. The gentleman had been on numerous sites trying to find the perfect Akita for him but was unable to find one due to a mixture of personality differences and being unable to pay the very high prices for a better bred Akita (Hiro is AKC, but I asked for absolutely NO rehoming fee in exchange for my being able to strictly interview potentials). I refused several interested parties but when Hiro and I met him at his farm I instantly knew 'this was it.' It has been almost a week now and I cried when I learned today how great Hiro's day-to-day is now compared to before. I'm a single full time student that ended up recently needing to get two jobs to make ends meet, so he was constantly cooped up in the house, alone. Now he is on a farm with cows, llamas, another dog, and an owner that is almost always home and who truly loved Hiro from the moment they met. This site has been a true answer to my AND that gentleman's prayers. He held out for the perfect Akita for him, and I held out for the perfect owner for Hiro, and RescueMe! made it so we found each other. Thank you thank you. I'll be setting up a monthly contribution for a year tonight to help make sure this wonderful service keeps going. -Samantha Tracy

     Hi Jeff (Rescue Me), Yes my Akita was adopted by a WONDERFUL loving family that if it wasn't for the site I wouldn't had found them. I wanted him to go to a loving family that he was coming from & I truly believe I found them, or maybe I should say they found us. I had a number of responses & they were all very nice & supportive people. This wasn't an easy decision for me giving up my companion of 3 years but everyone that utilized this site were all very friendly. Thank You

     I have had Jenny since the end of February... Thank you so much for posting her. Within two weeks I had seven people that wanted her and I have had two since adopting her. This site is amazing. Jenny has a forever home. The adopter lived in an another state and we met 1/2 way. We met last Thursday and they called Monday evening to say she is everything they expected and more.
