Calling all Akita lovers out there! Courtesy post for owner!

Koto is a beautiful, vaccinated, neutered, 8-year-old male Akita that has found himself in a bad circumstance.

Koto is being held at Norwich Animal Control because he can no longer stay at his home. In an unfortunate incident, Koto bit one of the children in the house.

No one was in the room when it happened and when the child's father grabbed Koto, he turned and bit him as well.

In Koto's 8 years, he's never shown any behavior such as this and his owner is greatly saddened that she can no longer keep Koto. Because her grandchildren are in the house, she knows it's better for Koto to find a new home.

Koto is a big guy with a big personality. He's a couch potato that could use a little exercise. He would do well in any home setting. He is a "talker" and loves to take socks off of people's feet! He needs a home without children and prefers to be the only pup.

Koto is being help at Norwich Animal Control, however, we are not adopting him out. His owner will be screening all potential adopters and be the sole person in charge of finding his new home.

If you are interested in Koto, please contact Kelly 860-625-4720.
