Akita Dogs Available for Adoption

Hi, I’m Javalanche — but you can call me Java

I’m a big-hearted puppy with very big energy and an even bigger love for life. I’ve settled beautifully into my foster home and have shown myself to be a happy, good-tempered boy who just wants to be part of the action.

I adore people — teens, adults, and new friends alike. I can be a little mouthy in true puppy fashion, but I’m easily redirected and a great listener. I love affection, cuddles, and being near my humans. If you’re looking for a dog who loves with his whole heart, that’s me.

I live with two large dogs and do wonderfully with them. I enjoy initiating play, chasing a ball, and being part of a pack. I’ve also previously lived with a small dog and had no issues. I haven’t been tested with cats recently, and I do show interest in birds and bunnies on walks — I’ll stand alert and watch them closely, though I’m not vocal.

I’m house-trained, crate-trained, leash-trained, and already know my basic commands. My recall at home and in the yard is excellent, and I come right away when called. I sleep happily in my crate at night and haven’t had any accidents.

I have very high energy and currently enjoy three walks a day, plus playtime in the yard. I could absolutely handle longer adventures and would make an incredible hiking or outdoor companion. After exercise, I settle nicely and love to relax with my people.

My ideal home would be an active family who enjoys walks, hikes, and playtime. A yard would be wonderful, and a dog sibling would be a huge bonus — though not required. I can live in a house or apartment as long as my physical and mental needs are met.

If you’ve been waiting for a loyal adventure partner who will keep up with your lifestyle and then crash happily at your feet at the end of the day, I’m ready when you are.

Javalanche was born approximately October 2024.

The Akita is a powerful and dignified dog breed originating from Japan, known for its loyalty, intelligence, and independent nature. They have a distinctive curled tail, erect ears, and a dense double coat that comes in various colors. Akitas are renowned for their strong protective instincts, making them excellent guard dogs. However, they require firm training and socialization to manage their dominant tendencies. With the right guidance and care, Akitas can be loving, devoted companions for experienced dog owners.
