Story
This pup is nothing short of amazing and has the best parts of a shepherd and an Akita. He wants to be part of the family and he will protect them until the bitter end. Kai wants a family so bad and has a strong love for the people who take care of him. Once he has settled in, Kai's happiness fills the home with joy. When you come home from a long day at work, Kai is there to greet you and wants nothing more than to listen and smell all about your day. This young loving amazing Shepherd gives unconditional love, and only wants to please you and take every command. He can be a little timid, but once he learns your love, he is extremely obedient and loving. Once you earn his love, that’s all you’re gonna get from him. He is a good boy who has been through some tough times who just wants a family all to his own. Kai currently lives with other dogs and does well with most of them. There are more assertive dogs that Kai is not a fan of. Kai is not recommended to live with cats due to prey drive. Kai has met children and done well with them with proper introductions, but would likely do best with older children only given his timid nature when first meeting new people. Kai would do best in a home that is experienced with Akitas, Shepherds, or a similar breed. Kai is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations. All Better World Rescue dogs qualify for complimentary private and/or group training to help ensure a successful adoption. If you would like to meet Kai to see if he is a good fit for your family, please fill out our short adoption application: www.betterworldrescue.org/adoption-application Upon receipt of your application, one of our passionate volunteers will call you within one business day to answer any questions and schedule a meet.

Story
Blitz was born on May 18, and I had the joy of picking him up from a friend when he was just 8 weeks old at the beginning of summer. From that moment on, he filled my life with love and joy. During my time back home from college in Washington, I took great care of him, cherishing every moment we spent together. When it was time for me to return to school, I found it incredibly difficult to leave him behind. I missed him so much that I decided to bring him up to Washington with me, and I even got him assigned as my Emotional Support Animal so he could stay by my side on campus. Weve had wonderful adventures together, but now, after many back-and-forth trips during breaks, Ive come to realize that Im not in the best position to provide him with the care and stability he truly deserves. Blitz is a loyal and affectionate companion, and I want nothing more than to find him a loving home. If you’re looking for a furry friend to bring joy please consider adopting Blitz.

Story
**Currently in foster** I'm introducing myself to you as a very independent, a little shy, and intelligent dog. My name is XL Duck. And I didn't grow up socializing with people a lot. So it takes me some time to get used to new human beings. But once I know you, you are my best friend. I love running, and running, and running. I met quite a few dogs at the shelter, and they all became my friends therefore I'd love the company of another dog in my new home! When I was in a foster home, I was quiet and non-destructive, but preferred the company of other dogs. I've made a lot of human friends at the shelter, and I love to play with them and get scratches.  Interested in adopting? Visit our shelter during open hours and ask about XL Duck and A050126December 31, 2024, 2:18 pm

Story
Meet HIROMI HIROMI was turned into the shelter as a found dog. No one ever came for her. Despite being failed by her former person, this sweetheart remains devoted and loving. After Hiromi’s arrival she was initially timid and lacked confidence. She can still be somewhat apprehensive but she has opened up and trusted us enough to let her true colors shine! She is silly, sensitive, refreshingly affectionate, playful and a free spirit. Her absolute favorite past time is to be showered with love and give it in return. Her gentle, resilient nature is inspiring but not surprising. Hiromi is very communicative by expressing a multitude of emotions with her eyes. Her body language is inviting and she understands how to use it to subtly let you know what’s on her mind. She is also an Akita so stubbornness is part of her DNA! Her ideal adopter should have a calm home environment and be able to provide consistency and a daily routine, where she can continue to expand her horizons. Hiromi gets excited for her daily walks and is a great traveler! She seems non-reactive to other dogs and might do well with a mellow male dog. She is approx 4 yrs old and weighs 57 lbs. She is also crate and house trained. She is ready to pledge her love and devotion! Are you?! If you are interested in adopting, please complete our adoption application found on our website here: https://www.namasteakitarescue.com/how-do-i-adopt There you will find helpful information about the adoption process, FAQ's, etc **PLEASE NOTE, we must first approve an application before a meeting can be arranged between a prospective adopter and our dogs.

Story
This gorgeous pup was one of 9 babies born here on 3/18/23 to sweet momma dog Elsa who came in to us from Animal Services. We know Elsa is a Husky, but we don't know what type of dog the dad was. Based on her look, we believe Shepherd. She is the last one of the litter that did not get adopted, which is unbelievable! She is the most gentle, well-mannered Husky mix to ever exist. She has fun playing in the yard with other dogs and gets along with everyone. She is a huge favorite among the staff here, but she needs a home! She has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed. Miss River has recently been diagnosed with hip dysplasia so we are in consultation with a surgeon who can fix her hips and she should be as good as new since she is so young. Ideally we hope she can be adopted and be able to recover in her new home. $250.00 adoption. Please visit our website www.petsnpals.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs and cats.
