Rakki-Inu Akita Rescue

Dogs available through Rakki-Inu

Thank you for your interest in adopting an Akita! All of our dogs will be spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped prior to adoption. Most will be house trained, crate trained, and leash trained, and they will all come with medical records, collar with current tags, and a bag of food. Please do not fill out this application if you already have a male AND a female dog in your home. Please do not fill out this application to adopt an Akita of the same sex as the dog you already have in your home. We do not do same-sex adoptions. We DO NOT adopt to homes that use invisible fence/electric fence containment. Also know that you must be willing to travel to meet the Akita you are interested in at the foster location, most likely in VA. Adopting a dog is a lifetime commitment. Every rescue dog comes with an adjustment period and a 10-year plus time commitment. If you are hesitant to keep your dog during good times and bad, during household moves, or family changes, please look no further. Each dog below has its own story, history, and issues. Some have been dumped in shelters, found roaming the streets, neglected, and/or abused. We make every effort to match a rescue dog with a compatible forever home, but it is up to your new companion to adjust to your home and family. To help ensure a successful placement, we work with our applicants and adopters to answer questions before, during, and after each adoption. We have a rigorous application process to help make sure that these dogs, who have been through so much already, find their forever homes. Our mission is to find new, loving homes for our rescues. All Akitas are altered, vet checked, and evaluated. An application is a required part of the adoption process and will help to match the right Akita for your household. With all the costs involved with rescue, we do request a $350 adoption donation to help defray our expenses so that we may help more Akitas in need.
