Bear is just a gorgeous dog. Friendly and sweet and excitable. Understands all the basic commands and adores spending time with his current carerer. He will enjoy further training especially if treats are involved. 

Bear is very gently and is only wanting to have a home to call his own. He currently lives at a construction site and is cared by workers there. However, we know this is not the way and he needs his own family. 

Given Bear's living conditions he is not socialized much with other dogs and being an Akita his new family would need to be patient and give him time to settle and allow him to get to know his new environment. As many akitas he is not great with other male dogs, so an experienced owner would be preferred. 

Bear is good on walks. Even though he can pull a little at first, he settles and walks nicely on his lead. 

We believe he can live with a similar sized female dog who is laid back and chill subject to successful introductions.

Bear has no toys, so he will need to learn how to play with toys and be a pampered pup. He can be a little protective of his food, so he would need time to settle in his new home and learn to trust his new family. 

Our assessor said that he was very gentle taking treats and Bear could sit, paw, lie down just to get one more. He travels well in car and can be left alone for a few short hours. Truly a gorgeous dog.

If you have Akita experience, and time to dedicate to assist with this beautiful Bears training and development to become part of  your family then we want to hear from you. 

Please note Bear will be neutered under ARW spaying and neutering agreement.
