🌿 Meet Willow 🌿
Willow is an American Akita × Golden Retriever and is about as gentle as they come. She’s calm, affectionate, sweet, quietly curious and has just enough puppy chaos to remind you that she is, in fact, still a baby.
She loves people and will happily follow you around, seek out affection and climb in for a cuddle… although there’s a good chance she’ll fall asleep before the cuddle is finished.
Despite being a puppy, Willow is only about a 3/10 for energy. She loves chasey, wrestling and tug-of-war with other dogs, but her play sessions are usually brief before she returns to her much more demanding schedule of napping.
Willow has been raised with dogs and cats. She matches other dogs’ play styles well, takes corrections beautifully and is learning to respect the cats’ space. Her gentle nature also makes her wonderful with children, although she still comes equipped with the standard factory puppy teeth!
She’s very food motivated and quick to learn, already knowing to sit when she wants something rather than jumping up. Toilet training is going brilliantly, she sleeps through the night, travels beautifully in the car and settles incredibly well with company.
Willow has also entered the prestigious Vacuum Cleaner Stage. Leaves, sticks, stray socks? Everything is edible until proven otherwise.
While Willow is an exceptionally chilled puppy, puppy school, ongoing training and continued positive socialisation are non-negotiable. Her family needs to understand her Akita genetics and be committed to helping this sweet, well-mannered puppy grow into an equally wonderful adult.
Willow thrives on company, whether from her humans, a compatible resident dog, or both. More than anything, she needs a family who will include her in their life and put the time into giving her the best possible start. 🖤
