Akira is a striking 2.5-year-old Akita and German Shepherd mix with a memorable smile and a trademark perky ear. Rescued from euthanasia just in time, she’s now safe and ready for a new life in Thayne, WY. Akira is friendly with people and has done well with older teens, though her experience with young children is unknown. You’ll notice her loyalty and independent streak right away—traits that come from her Akita and Shepherd roots. She needs a confident owner familiar with large breeds who can give her the structure and companionship she thrives on. Akira is best as the only dog to start, especially since she does best with dogs her size or bigger and does not get along with small dogs or cats. Her intelligence, loyalty, and willingness to bond make her a special companion for someone committed to helping her shine. Akira is house trained, spayed, and current on vaccinations, so she's ready to settle in with the right person. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
