Akira/Athena

Meet Akira – The Little Girl with a Big Heart<br/><br/>On November 16, 2025, sweet Akira thought her forever had finally arrived. She had been chosen, adopted, and placed on transport from South Carolina to Connecticut. After all she had endured—being a young stray in a rural Louisiana shelter bursting at the seams—this was supposed to be her happy ending.<br/>But just hours before her adopter was to pick her up, they backed out. No care, no concern, no thought for the little soul who had already traveled so far with hope in her heart. Akira was left waiting, confused and unwanted once again.<br/>** Yet in that moment of heartbreak, kindness stepped in. She was immediately rerouted to a trusted friend of our founder, someone who opened their home and heart without hesitation. Today, Akira is thriving in her foster home, safe and cherished while she waits for the family who will never let her down.<br/><br/>Akira is just a little over a year old now.. She may seem shy at first, but don’t let that fool you—she warms quickly and loves deeply. She enjoys her porch naps, her in-and-out freedom, and has had zero accidents in the house thanks to her routine. She is fully vetted, spayed, and heartworm negative—ready for the chapter she truly deserves.<br/><br/>**Akira is more than just a dog; she is a gentle soul who has already survived disappointment and still chooses love. If you’re searching for a loyal companion with resilience, tenderness, and a heart bigger than her small frame, Akira might just be the one.<br/><br/>**Begin her journey to forever by filling out our application:<br/><br/>https://hoardinhuskies.net/dog-adoption/
