First I want to thank each of you that donate this is what happens when we all work together for these dogs . Good nutrition, time , training , and of course lots of love …. It’s all good for the soul ?? Stevi before and after ( Today ) Stevi was rescued along with three other adult female Akitas out of the Lancaster PA area from Dog Farmers who no longer had any use for them . When these girls came to us they where worn , used up and honestly looked the part. It’s rare to get one of these dogs out in decent shape . Back to Stevi , today she has a beautiful plush coat , had gained weight and confidence. She now knows how to sit and walk on leash. She was a dream to groom also. She is actually pretty darn large dog tolerant. I did cat test her and she has a prey drive . So no small dogs no small animals . This is a nice big , laid back gentle soul who still loves and trusts people . Come meet this gem . She is finally ready to shine her way into your heart… For more information and a adoption application www.bigeastakitarescue.org Interested in this precious girl?
