4 year old female Akita
Friendly
One pet household
Doesn’t do well with other pets
Looking for a loving home for Gloom, she’s such a kind and peaceful pup. She deserves a home where she can be free and comfortable with loving owners. She loves kids, playing outside or even keeps herself happy with her toys. She’s so smart, she goes into her home when told to or if you ask her to bring a toy she comes right over. She’s stubborn about coming back inside from her outside time lol but she’ll listen if you’re stern. She’s a bit lazy at times, loves watching movies on the sofa or sleeping in every single corner of the house. If you can’t find her, she’s asleep.
If you don’t know about her breed, Akitas are known to be loyal and fierce protectors; they’re also silent.. Gloom doesn’t bark unless necessary. She hasn’t been trained or anything but she’s never been the type to bark unless necessary. Whether she’s alerting you there’s someone near, or if other pets are being loud she barks back. I think I’ve hear her voice about 12 times in the 4 years I’ve had her. She’s brave, silly and smart.. ❤️
