Adorable Akaka!

How content does Akaka look (FKA Bonnie Tapioca)? They picked the name Akaka because it partly means red in Japanese, for the red behind her ears.  Akaka's former owners were moving and they turned Akaka into a high kill shelter in Louisiana.  But thankfully, Akaka has a wonderful new home with Gabbi and Tristan and she is now a Jersey girl.

Gabbi tells us that Akaka is an intelligent, curious pup.  She is eating well and they spoil her! Akaka has a big brother, Siloh.  They get along great and have a big brother, little sister relationship. Akaka also has a BFF, an Aussie named Winter, that she sees weekly on hikes and walks.  Akaka loves her walks and on street walking does best on a gentle leader.  For hikes they use a harness and a long leash.  Her behavior has improved and continues to improve with training. She has a little stuffed rabbit that she carries around and sleeps with.

They feel so blessed to have Akaka part of their family!
