1.5 yr old JA in need of a foster or home in soCal
This morning I visited a Poongsan and a Japanese Akita that were owner-surrendered to a concerned private individual. The two dogs were suffering from neglect, especially after one of their owners fell ill and could no longer care for the dogs. The Poongsan had an embedded flea collar and the JA had untreated entropian that caused his eyes to swell up. The two are currently being treated and boarded at a veterinary/rescue center but will be needing a foster home or a permanent home very soon. Before this next weekend if possible, or else they'll get moved to another boarding location.
I'll be taking in the Poongsan but the JA still needs a place to go to. Though undersocialized, he had bounced back from the shock of being removed from home and from being boarded in a strange place. He was friendly and accepting of treats and pets. He is in dire need of a bath, but unlike the Poongsan, he still has all his coat and doesn't seem to have gotten urine burns.
If you can help, please let me know (jindojunkie@yahoo.com) and I'll forward the contact info of the private individual.

The Meetup does support rescue efforts.
(@ayk--If you want me to contact the Sacramento Akita Club about this guy, let me know. I have worked with them on joint rescue efforts.)
Btw koda kises girl dogs just like that white Akita does. Too adorable.
I have to admit, I'd love to have him, and I bet Oskar would love him (he'd be thrilled to have a friend his size) but at the moment we're not stable enough to take on another dog, not with Bel's craziness. I sure hope he finds a good home.

I really want this boy, but since we already have three dogs, and a somewhat complicated situation with them, it doesn't sound like it will work for us, as much as he does seem like he would be a good companion for Oskar. So I thought I'd bump this thread about him and maybe someone knows someone who would want him. He sounds like a wonderful boy!
