Denali - Staying With Owner


Name: Denali
Age: 9 months
Sex: Male (altered)
Breed: Akita
Location: Western New York

Vet Info: Denali is confirmed neutered and is current with vaccinations. Denali weighs 80 lbs. He is mostly blind (about 10% vision) from birth.


Owner Info: Denali is a young Akita whose owner 's circumstances have changed and she can no longer give him the time and space she had wanted to. Denali was adopted as a puppy and his owner is having trouble finding a new home for him. The breeder did not want him back when they found out he was blind. He is an outdoor dog with a tie-out but he is also house-broken and leash-trained. He goes to doggie daycare three times a week and they work on basic commands there; he knows stay, sit, lay down and he's working on come! His owner says he is shy and very“people-picky” but once he gets to know them by smell, he is fine. He has never been around small kids. His owner says she is nervous to allow them around him. He is currently living in a house with three shih-tsus who Denali does not get along with. There have been fights with the smaller dogs but no incidents with broken skin. His owner says that Denali is a really good boy who loves to play and have his belly rubbed. He just needs the right person to handle him.
