TUG Akita Austin, TX

Tug arrived stray with no tags and no bags and such a nice boy,,,, someone must be missing him. He's gorgeous, all 100 lbs plus, and he heart worm negative, calm and mellow and doesn't seem to get worked up about anything. He's started creating strong people bonds here already. He's a loose leash walker and SUPER housetrained. Come see him for yourself. We named him TUG as in tugboat because he has a tendency to stop walking and move his shoulders and head across the front of your knees if he thinks you might be coming upon danger such as walking up on any one of the hundreds of barking dogs here..he's loyal and may be a bit of a protector. And speaking of dogs, he seems interested in meeting quiet friendly dogs he passes by. If you have a dog at home a doggie meet up can be setup at the shelter. Tug is advocated for by his friends and family here at the shelter including ClassicCaninesATX who are helping to make gateways home for displaced dogs like Tug who took a fork in the road of the life due to happenstance.
