Thank you for visiting us here at Blue Moon Akita Rescue.  Whether you are looking for an Akita or just want to learn more about these fascinating dogs, I hope we'll have some information to help you. 

You'll notice we are a little different in that we're kinda homey and just talking about our Akitas.  We hope you enjoy your visit with us and will check back periodically.  Because this is a work in progress, we'll continue to expand the site, adding new orphans to join our Adoptable Akitas page, new success stories as Blue Moon orphans find homes and respectfully honoring new additions to the Rainbow Bridge. 

If you see something you really like, (or don't like) ... please do give us the gift of feedback by writing karena@bluemoonakitarescue.com

Learn About the Akita

Are you the perfect family for one of our current Akita orphans?  Maybe, and maybe not.  Would you buy an VW Beetle when you really need an F350 crew cab?  I'm going to take a leap of faith here and say "not likely"!  The same thing applies to breeds of dogs; one breed/one size does not fit all owners and it does the dog an injustice to think otherwise.  Just because I can't envision not having at least one Akita, that does NOT make them the ideal breed for everyone visiting this site.  Please take some time to learn about the Akita and certainly we would love to answer any questions you may have.  Akita Rescue Western New York (ARWNY) has some wonderful breed specific information on their site at http://akitarescuewny.com/ARWNY/information.htm also feel free to contact us -- you can e-mail karena@bluemoonakitarescue.com with any questions you may have.

Not all Akitas like smaller animals but Dillon and Lugar are best buddies
