Introducing Grimswick! CAUTION: MUST LOVE FUR, DOG HUGS, and DROOL! Grimswick is a big boy with a puppy’s heart, playful, wiggly, and full of joy. He does happy hops when he’s excited and greets you with full body wiggles that are impossible not to smile at. In typical Akita fashion he loves cold weather and playing in snow. He will bound through the biggest snow drifts and then lean into you for scratches and ear rubs. He still functions in warmer weather, but appreciates AC and cold water, and who doesn't with Ohio's humidity. He also enjoys being brushed which is good because he's 95 pounds and 98% fur. Food is his love language, and he’s never met a treat he didn’t adore. He's house trained, and thrives on affection. He’ll need to be the only dog in the home, but with his goofy charm and loving nature, he’ll fill your world with tail wags and happy vibes.
