Get Your Sit Together Rescue for Misunderstood Mutts - Colorado This page was used to help an ailing rescue get their Akitas, Pitbulls, and Sharpei's up to health, and placed in homes, before the rescue shut down.

We were ale to keep 20 dogs from being euthanzied. We keep this page up to remember all of the hard work we accomplished as well as to keep those memories of those dogs we donated time to help. It is a reminder how important it is to give back..and we just don't have the heart to delete the progress showcased on the page. Thank you to Planned Pethood for helping us get the dogs the immediate care

they needed, and all of those that helped donate food, toys, and shared the posts to help get all 20 dogs safe and in homes!! Cheers to a group effort!! We very much appreciated all the help!! JC, Nicole, Tylor, & Danielle.

Akita Breed Info:

There are two types of Akitas as recognized by the American Kennel Club or AKC. They are the Japanese Akita-Inu and the American Akita. We have a little version of us Akitas called a Shiba-Inu and we have a big version of us Akitas called the Tosa-Inu. We Akitas descended from the Japanese Wolf (Canis lupus hattai) and were bred for hunting bear and wild boar on Hokkaido Island’s northern tip. We have 1,700 PSI bite force; enough to crush bone. We DO NOT get along with Coyotes under ANY circumstances; we’re sometimes okay with cats. We love snow and playing in the snow. The AKC has set the following guidelines as “perfect” for us Akitas: Height: Males 26 - 28 inches (66 - 71 cm), Females 24 - 26 inches (61 - 66 cm) Weight: Males 75 - 120 pounds (34 - 54 kg), Females 75 - 110 pounds (34 - 50 kg) Akitas are not recommended for first time pet owners as we can sometimes be a handful and a half. We are obedient, can be trained to do things and are aloof around people we meet. We are a guardian breed and view our families as our primary responsibility and that we will protect them and their property without question. Think about that, we need no training to be protective. We are ever watchful of our surroundings, alert to danger. If we start barking, pay attention as we see something that is a possible threat a long time before you will. We love unconditionally all members of our family. We can, with proper diet and exercise, live to be 15+ years old. As an Akita, we are typically same s*x aggressive. It’s just something that is built into us. But we may cohabit with dogs of the opposite s*x.

For those who are looking at getting an Akita from BMAR or another source, there are some good books out there to help educate you on the breed.
