Hello, my name is Akeira. I’ve been waiting here in the kennels for a while now, and I can’t help but wonder when my special someone will come for me. Everyone tells me I’m beautiful and loving, but I think what I need most is for someone to see me- not just as a rescue dog, but as a best friend. I am approximately five years old now, and I’m full of energy, love, and curiosity. I love adventures! Exploring new places, sniffing the grass, feeling the breeze on my face—it makes my tail wag like nothing else. But do you know what I love just as much? Curling up beside you once the day is done. I may be playful and full of energy, but deep down, I’m also a softy who just wants cuddles and comfort. I’m eager to learn, too. When you show me new things, my heart lights up because I love making you proud. Training isn’t just about the treats (though I’ll never say no to those!). Oh, and toys? Let’s just say a soft toy doesn’t last very long with me… but I promise my goofy antics will keep you laughing. I’ve even had the chance to go home with some of the rescue volunteers, and I loved it! I had no accidents, enjoyed exploring a real home, and absolutely loved getting all the attention. Those visits showed me how wonderful it is to have a family and a comfy home of my own. Now, to be honest; I’m best suited to being the only dog in the household. I don’t get along with all dogs, and while I can have a successful introduction with some, I really do shine when I have all the love and attention to myself. I can also live happily with children aged 8 and above, and I can’t wait to become part of a family who will love me as much as I’ll love them. I may have spent time in kennels, but I promise I’m ready for a home filled with love. All I want is a family to love me, keep me safe, and let me be part of their world. In return, I’ll give you endless cuddles, waggy tails, and love forever. I’m already vet-checked, spayed, and microchipped—and when you adopt me, you’ll even get five weeks of free insurance. But the most important thing you’ll get is me: a faithful friend who will brighten your life every single day. Could you be the one I’ve been waiting for? With love, Akeira
