Karla

Description

Successfully rehomed by RSPCA Newcastle & North Northumberland Branch

Karla is a lovely 1 year old Japanese Akita. She entered RSPCA care in April 2013 with her friend Captain as part of a cruelty investigation. Both dogs had severe hair loss from untreated skin problems. They have both now received treatment and all of their hair has grown back. Karla is the more confident of the two but can still be a little nervous and unsure at times. Once she gets to know you she is friendly and affectionate. She is currently  learning to play with toys and to walk nicely on a lead. Karla can already sit on command but requires further basic obedience training. Karla is friendly towards the dogs here at the centre but a little unsure of how to react around them and so would benefit from socialisation with other dogs. She would be best suited to a home where she is the only animal in the household and without children. Karla appears to have had little experience of everyday things and is looking for a patient and understanding owner who can teach her the ways of the world. An owner with expererience of Akitas, or similar breeds would be preferable. If you feel you can offer the beautiful Karla a new home, please contact the Rehoming Co-ordinator (Sarah) on 07973952575.
