Slate is a well-mannered, intelligent 5-year-old Akita with a strong, loyal streak. He’s sharp with commands, walks smoothly on a leash, and will even shake your hand when asked. Slate thrives on human connection and focuses his attention completely on his people. Because of this, he’ll do best as the only pet in the home; he doesn’t get along with cats or other dogs and needs to be the star. He’s already neutered, current on vaccinations, and ready to settle in with his new family. If you’re looking for a devoted, well-trained companion with a great head on his shoulders, Slate fits the bill. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
