Natasha

Natasha arrived at Battersea as a stray so we do not have any history on this beautiful girl. Akitas are powerful and large dogs, they were originally bred for hunting, tracking, pulling sledges and to be protective family companions. Natasha is typical of the breed, she is friendly, loyal and intelligent but also has an aloof edge with strangers.

Akitas are strong and often have dominant characters, they do not make ideal dogs for the first time dog owner. Natasha is looking for an experienced owner, ideally someone that has owned an Akita or similar spitz type. Natasha already knows a few commands and is a trainable dog but can be stubborn so patience is needed in training.

Natasha is fairly aloof with other dogs, she needs a home without other dogs as she gets nothing from them but she is also a little intolerant around some boisterous dogs. Unknown if compatible with cats but due to Akitas strong hunting instincts they are not normally good with small pets. Being a large dog natasha is looking for a large home and secure garden with plenty of space.

Once settled Natasha could be left for short periods, she is happy to relax after a good walk and will amuse herself with a tasty chewy bone. Due to her unknown past Natasha cannot live with children, an all adult household is preferred. Natasha is a great dog and once bonded she will make a loving and loyal addition.
