Meet Akita! This fun and affectionate girl is known for greeting her favorite people with a big, heart-melting smile. She loves exploring the Dogtown trails and makes an excellent co-pilot on car rides — calm, quiet, and just happy to be along for the journey. Akita takes a little time to warm up to new friends, but a few leisurely walks and some tasty treats are the way to her heart. Once you’re in, you’re in — and she’ll make sure you know how special you are to her. Akita is looking for an adult-only home where she can be the center of attention as the only dog. If you’re ready to build a rewarding bond with a loyal and loving companion, Akita might just be your girl. Reach out to our adoptions team to learn more!

About Best Friends Animal Society

Best Friends is working to end the killing of dogs and cats in U.S. shelters in part by getting more pets out of shelters and into loving homes.

We’ve come a long way since the first known city reached no-kill in 1994, and now we’re closer than ever to making the entire country no-kill. Of the roughly 3,900 shelters operating in America today, 1,300 of them are not yet no-kill, but nearly half are close with 100 or fewer additional pets to be saved, and we know what to do to get them there.

Best Friends is committed to working with passionate people like you to save homeless pets through adoption, volunteering, fostering, and advocacy. In addition to our lifesaving centers around the U.S, we also founded and run the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals.

Working together, we can save homeless pets in our communities and secure a better future for our best friends. Together, we will bring the whole country to no-kill.
