Daka is a happy and sweet boyl! He is good with people and gets along well with dogs of all sizes. Daka has a rough start in life. However, it doesn’t stop him from loving and trusting humans. He can be a little shy at first. However, there is not a mean bone in him. It doesn’t take him long to warm up. Daka is doing well in his foster home and ready for a forever home. Daka started some leash training and is learning at a good pace. He is crate-trained and doing well on his house training. Daka loves his trips to the doggie park and absolutely enjoys hiking in the woods. Daka is a wonderful dog and will make a good family dog.

Daka’s Rescue Story

Daka and Daki were abandoned on the streets. They must have been starving for quite some time. They were so hungry and were so happy when a kind volunteer gave them some food. They quickly gave in and followed him to his car. They were from a litter of six puppies. Sadly, most people were not kind to them and wanted them gone. The volunteer mentioned that their four other siblings were poisoned to death.

TNR rescue groups specialize in getting stray animals spayed and neutered and the animals are returned to their original location to live as homeless dogs. TNR programs help with the overpopulation of unwanted animals. The volunteer caring for them loves them and didn’t want to see them back on the streets. The volunteer reached out to an experienced international rescue organization to help with them and some other puppies that are still too young to be released back to the streets. The founder of the rescue organization has over 160 dogs waiting for homes. She really does not have space for another dog. However, she could not bear to see them suffering on the streets. She agreed to take them home and give them a chance in life.

Daka had a thorough medical checkup. He had been neutered, vaccinated, microchip, and passed negative on his blood tests. Please give Daka a loving home where he will never be left behind again.

ABOUT: MIXED BREED DOG BREED

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
