About this Dog

Mishu is a beautiful 1yr, 2month old. He is approx 95lbs, neutered , is up to date on his shots and is microchipped. His ideal home is with someone who has had an Akita before or at the very least ... former big dog experience. He is a very happy, healthy kid. I rescued him from a shelter on 11/30/21 . His original owner had died. He is fully house trained but still needs obedience/manners training. I had been doing professional training sessions with him every week for the first month or so . After that, my elderly mother in another state had a stroke and I had to go to her 3x/week at that point. So Mishu's training had to end as a result. He is VERY smart and a quick learner and quite food motivated (training wise)...... but still needs more obedience training because I haven't been home enough. With deep heartbreak I'm now being forced to give him up. This is soley as a result of my mother's worsening medical conditions. I've had to quit my job and will have to go be her primary caregiver for an indefinite timeframe. Could be 6months or a year . I have no family or friends that can care for him nor adopt him. Today is 4/4/22 and I have to give him up by 4/19/22 or be forced to bring him to a shelter. Again, this because I have to leave the state and become my mother's primary caregiver. This is heart shattering to me as Mishu is a very special, very happy young boy. Couldn't ask for a better temperment from such a large breed dog. I had plans and dreams of enjoying him for his entire life. Even had plans on furthering his training to teach him to be a hunting dog as he seems to be a VERY keen tracker . More so than any other Akita I've had in my life. If no one adopts him he will have to go back into a shelter somewhere in the vicinity of my home(Southern Berkshires, MA) . And that would shatter me. It's already shattering me that I have to give him up. My heart is completely broken over this.

Adopt Mishu and Receive Dogecoin

Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Mishu's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised. Dogecoin is digital currency that can be exchanged for cash, traded, or held as an investment (see the "What is Dogecoin" section below).

How will Mishu receive the Dogecoin?


The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. If you adopted the Mishu, thank you for providing a home and a loving family! Please begin the process of claiming Mishu's Dogecoin here.


For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the Dogecoin by submitting the necessary information.


The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Mishu was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Mishu’s Dogecoin balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.




What is Dogecoin?


"The fun and friendly internet currency."
Dogecoin sets itself apart from other digital currencies with an amazing, vibrant community made up of friendly folks just like you. Dogecoin is a decentralized, peer-to-peer digital currency that enables you to easily send money online.
Learn more about it on youtube or at dogecoin.com.




What happens to unclaimed funds?


We want the Mishu’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Mishu’s balance will remain in our general Dogecoin fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
