My story

Tyson is a 3-year-old, 100 lb Akita. With a heart filled with love, his spirit is unbreakable. Despite a rough start to life—he was found tied to a chain and living in a shed—Tyson shows unstoppable resilience and kindness. This gentle, fluffy giant is friendly with both dogs and people. However, in our care, Tyson has not lived with other dogs. Tyson ensured too much in his short life. Luckily, he never let his adversities change his sweet, trusting nature. Tyson is a wonderful companion. With the right family, his big handsome, social, affectionate, goofball of a bear will shine.  Tyson is housebroken, crate-trained, and knows basic commands. He loves to play with toys and go for car rides. He would thrive in an Akita-experienced or open-to-learning home! Tyson just wants guidance and attention. He loves his humans unconditionally and hopes to find someone just as devoted to him. Due to his size and playful nature, Tyson should go to an adult-only home or one with older and dog-savvy teens/young adults.  If you’re looking for a loyal, loving friend to join your home, Tyson could be the perfect fit. Don’t wait—this incredible boy needs you now! If interested in adopting Tyson, please complete an application on our website at https://www.twentypawsrescue.com/forms-applications/ or email us at info@twentypawsrescue.com. Please note that due to an email glitch, sometimes emails get lost. We respond to all emails! So, if you do not hear from us, please follow up!  March 26, 2025, 12:23 pm

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Tyson, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
