MYLES (COURTESY POST) - AKITA DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Posted Breed: Akita. DISCLOSURE: The adoptable pets in our program are still in the care and custody of owners who wish to re-home their pet. Owners have enlisted Rescue Well to provide marketing and screening of applicants as a service, free of charge. All fees and adoption conditions are determined by the owner. We advise that adopters do not send payment or deposits for pets prior to adopting. ***** Myles is 7yo, weigh 115lbs, is neutered, is up to date on his vaccinations, and is not microchipped. He knows the following commands: sit; stay; paw; down; and place. Myles dislikes/fears loud noises, 'and is the only time he really barks'. Myles loves riding in the car. Myles's guardian adds: " He loves his walks and loves treats even more! He is very protective of his loved ones and should be the only dog. He did live with a French bulldog and Yorkie and was very gentle with them but we do not think that would be the case going into a new home. Would just rather be safe as he has had some aggression towards other dogs in the past. He would of course love a yard to run around in but we don’t think it’s absolutely necessary as he walks very well on a leash and is not reactive at all while walking, unless of course someone gets too close as again, he is very protective. If you welcome someone into your home he is very friendly and loving towards them, he loves to give hugs!! " Myles's guardian explains why she has made the difficult decision to rehome him: "Myles went to live with my ex when we split up 4 years ago. He was relocated for work to Miami FL and it was a horrible situation for Myles in a high rise apartment in Miami. I took him so he wouldn't end up in a shelter but I cannot keep him as I have 4 dogs of my own and one of them has been in a fight with Myles before and they hate each other." SCRATCH INCIDENT: In August 2023, in Miami, FL, Myles scratched someone, which didn't break the skin, medical intervention was not necessary and Animal Control was not involved. Myles's guardian explains: "Someone was trying to pet his frenchie brother in the apartment building. His own shouldn't have let anyone pet either of them as he is protective." Myles's guardian states the following regarding children: Myles hasn't lived with children and since he's been around older children, his guardian recommends his living with older children. Myles's guardian states the following regarding dogs: Myles has lived with dogs, but his guardian doesn't recommend his living with dogs, stating "I have not allowed him to interact at all as I'm not comfortable". Myles's guardian states the following regarding cats: Myles hasn't lived with or otherwise been around cats, so his guardian doesn't recommend his living with cats. Myles's guardian describes him as: Couch potato Quiet Playful Likes to be touched Affectionate Independent Protective Indoor dog House-Trained Likes men Likes women Myles's guardian describes his ideal future home: "Myles future home will continue to feed him the diet he has been eating (half Iams kibble and half Ollie's fresh food). He, of course, would love a fenced in backyard to run around, but it’s not absolutely necessary as he is a huge couch potato. And just someone to show him the love and attention he deserves on a daily basis. Rehoming Fee: None Location: Hanover, MD ***** ADOPTION PROCESS 1.
