German Shorthair Pointer

✅ Neutered / UTD / Healthy!!
✅ House Trained
✅ Crate Trained
✅ LOVES kids of all ages
✅ Excellent with other dogs
❌ NO CATS OR SMALL ANIMALS

Dude is an incredibly sweet, typical GSP! He loves his people, anything outdoors and playing with toys. He is a very happy, go-lucky guy even though he hasn’t had the easiest go at life recently. Following the passing of his owner, he found himself in rescue at no fault of his own. He needed to gain some weight and take some time to calm down in foster, but is now looking for a place to call his own!
Dude lives in a foster home with toddlers and other dogs and gets along with everyone perfectly. He would love an owner who has some energy but also is ready for a Velcro dog who wants to be the big spoon!

Tadashi is being returned to the Breeder!

Courtesy Post!!

Tadashi finds himself in a very lonely situation. His owner passed away his sister who is a standard poodle is leaving for Rescue this week. He will be alone in the house.

Tadashi is an American Akita, an unfixed male about 3 years old. He is used to playing out in a backyard with a large poodle. An experienced handler could possibly integrate him with other dogs. Prior to the poodle, he had a stint living with other Akitas and another stint living as a solo pet, with some exposure to doggie daycares.

Tadashi has had a little exposure to crating, leashing, home interiors, and kids, but all of this would need to be reinforced. He has developed a habit of jumping up in the past year, as his owner became too ill to reinforce any initial training. His owner delayed fixing him to allow for bone development, but he is overdue to be fixed and vet records may or may not become available, as the late owner's estate is processed.

Tadashi would thrive if placed with a physically active, experienced owner who has significant time to invest into building a relationship with him.

Please only apply if you have had Akita experience . This is a breed with a headstrong personality and does require an experienced adopter.

If you have interest in meeting Tadashi❤️
