WELCOME
We are a small group of like-minded volunteers with a passion for the Akita breed including the Japanese Akita Inu and a dedication towards their health and welfare.
We operate nationally and are totally self funded. All funds raised are directly put back into the rescue and used for the care, adoption and re homing of those Akitas in kennels under Second Chance Akita Rescue.
Introducing Gabby, our charming one-eyed sweetheart who is only 4 years old!
Gabby loves cuddling will eagerly leap up for some snuggles, particularly if treats are in the mix—though she definitely favors junk food over healthy options! She believes every spot is hers when it comes to personal space!
This lovely girl is on the lookout for a caring, experienced home where she can be the center of attention.
After a challenging past, she truly deserves all the love and joy the world has to offer.
DOG OF THE WEEK: Gabby

NEWS & UPDATES

Anyone considering owning this breed needs to know the hardships and difficulties that can come with owning them.
Proper raising, training and socialising is imperative to a well rounded and balanced dog. That said, understand that genetically predisposed behaviours cannot be "trained" out. You never train away genetics. You manage them. So while you may raise an Akita that grows intolerant to other animals, you can manage those behaviours and train the dog in a way that they don't become reactive, aggressive and dangerous.
