Willow Akita Mix Lindstrom , MN

If you are interested in any of the dogs available at New Leash Rescue, you can reach out to the foster listed below for more information and then complete an adoption application which can be found at https://www.newleashrescue.org/adopt/policy. Please email the completed application to newleashrescue2018@gmail.com

Willow is about 1.5-2 years old. She is a sweet girl that likes to give cuddles.
She is a fence jumper, yes even 6', so she would need a tie out or regular walks for exercise. She will run off if off leash.

As is typical of the Akita breed, she has a high prey drive so no small animals are recommended. Willow is sensitive about her feet being touched, so special care with nail trims will be needed. She also doesn't care for being picked up, but as a large dog this doesn't matter too much aside from getting in vehicles. She is not recommended for kids under age 12.

Willow is up-to-date on vaccines, spayed and microchipped. She is also current with her preventatives.

Adoption fee is $350.00 + tax (no checks)

This dog will be at our adoption event at the Woodbury PetSmart on Saturday from 11-2 looking for a home!

Our fosters do the best they can to provide all information about the animal's background and temperament while in foster care in their home. An adopters routine and home environment is likely going to be different than that in their foster home. Sometimes there is more that comes out about a dog's personality once they have been able to settle in a home and truly become comfortable.

There are great articles out there written about the different stages a pet goes through after adoption, discussing transitions that happen at 3 days, 3 weeks, and 3 months. We highly recommend reading about this - it will help you understand the transition your new pet goes through.
