Ruff
Ruff is an all around great guy looking for someone to treasure him — He's a jewel, a sweetheart, a darling boy with a heart of gold who'll make even the happiest days even better. He's adorable, fun and loves everyone he meets. He's got that soul-mate connection with those around him. He already knows fun cues like sit, stay and lay down. While here with us, Ruff was introduced to another dog and has a playful play style.
You can view a video of Ruff here: https://youtube.com/shorts/Y0SbaWd5WDo?feature=share
He is a neutered, male Akita and German Shepherd Mix that the shelter staff thinks is about a year and seven months old. Ruff weighs approximately 57 pounds.
He loves other dogs, walks nicely on a leash, has a very calm kennel presence. All-around really great guy and super affectionate. We’d love for you to meet him!

Hyde and Maura
Sweet Bonded Sibling Akitas Need New Home
Hyde and Maura are gorgeous Akitas, brother and sister, who were recently rescued from a neglectful situation after Maura was found wandering the streets. Luckily, some kind people stepped in and rescued and reunited them both. They are approximately 8 years old and still have plenty of energy and love to take walks.
The siblings are bonded and we would prefer not to separate them. They want to sleep and cuddle together and it’s heartwarming to see how much they love and depend on each other.
They love to ride in a car; they are house trained; and they walk well on the leash. It is clear that no one has cared for them in a very long time, yet they are friendly and sweet.
They are currently being boarded at a vet and have not shown any sign of aggression either with humans or dogs. They are now up-to-date on their shots, chipped, spayed/neutered and the vet has treated their minor issues due to the neglect. Maura weighs approximately 75 pounds and Hyde is approximately 95 pounds.
Hyde and Maura really deserve a second shot at life in a home together. They are so sweet, smart and loving and are so excited to be back together.
If you think you have a home that has room for two larger dogs and can give them the love and attention they need, please contact The Labelle Foundation at:

Stark
Stark was recently surrendered to us by a loving family. He's hoping to find a new loving family that's familiar with Akitas.
For an American Akita, Stark is on the small side weighing in at about 97 pounds. In his previous home, Stark lived with a small dog (Shiba Inu) and two middle-school-aged kids.
He's a typical Akita: Playful, loving and loyal with the people in his household — less so with strangers, especially when they visit his property. Luckily, his previous home used positive reinforcement training, so Stark starts to like houseguests within a day or two. To be fair, that's what his ancestors were bred for.
If you're not familiar with American Akita's we strongly recommend doing some research before coming to meet Stark. If you have other dogs in your home, we'd also appreciate you bringing them to meet him prior to adoption. Stark would do best in a home with kids 13 and older.

Duchess
Duchess, ID # D21-096, was found and brought to the shelter on 9/26/2021and she is looking for a new loving home.
Duchess is a friendly, quiet, playful, affectionate, smart, spayed and micro-chipped female Akita Mix and she is a little over a year old.
She is black and white, sweet-tempered and she has been seen by our veterinarian to assess the injuries she had when she came to us. It appears she had a broken leg at some point but evidently didn't get care for it and it healed incorrectly, leaving her with a strange walking and running gait. Our vet assures us that it is healed and that Duchess isn't in pain from it.
Now that she's feeling better, she is a happy girl, enjoying the play yard when it's her turn to be out there, running around. Duchess would do best in a home with calm, patient adults and young children should be avoided.
Since she's already spayed and chipped, her fee is only $30 for our special adoption rate.
If you'd like to meet Duchess, please call the Escalon Animal Shelter at 209-838-9908 or send email to escalonshelter@yahoo.com to make an appointment to meet her.

Chocolate Bear - Adopted!
Chocolate Bear is a mixed Akita that was originally found at North Natomas Heritage Park gated community, at Rockaway Lane and Ingleton Lane.
We think he is about 5 years old and is not neutered. He had no collar and could not find a microchip. He is pretty scruffy and might have been out on the street for awhile.
He is a sweet dog and would love to see him adopted or at least in a foster home.
He stayed with the nice people that found him for two nights and then was taken to:
City of Sacramento Animal Care Services
2127 Front Street, Sacramento, CA 95818
916-808-7387
His Animal ID # is: A631484 and he is located in Kennel 116
Please contact the shelter as soon as possible if you would like to give him a new home.

Hiro
Hiro appears to be an Akita and German Shepherd Mix and he is absolutely wonderful! We are not sure of his breed for sure, but he is a big fluffy sweet boy! He appears to get along with other dogs and is a talker and loves people. He has been with us since July 4th.
Hiro is available for general adoption and we advise any potential adopters to consult with their veterinarians to determine what type of treatment they will need to do prior to committing to adopting (Hiro has tested as high antigen heartworm positive).
