Northeastern U.S. www.bigeastakitarescue.net BEAR is a 501 (C)(3) charitable Akita rescue group in the United States that does hands-on rescue, and is totally manned by volunteers. BEAR was founded by a small group of concerned Akita owners & volunteers that wanted to help the breed due to the number of Akitas in need in the metropolitan Tri-State area of NY , NJ , Pa,MA, ME, VT, CT . in the USA. Our highest priority is to save , rehabilitate and find forever homes for URGENT Akitas in area shelters; however, we also address a wide variety of Akita services such as educating potential owners, referrals, support for Akita owners, & evaluations of Akitas in private homes & shelters. We are active members of our national parent breed club The Akita Club of America , and assist with information against breed specific legislation. We can & do help as many Akitas as we can but sadly no one can save them all, there are too many. It is our hope to one day have no more abandoned, abused, neglected or unwanted Akitas.    If you're interested in owning an Akita, take a look at our Akita’s for adoption  page’s ..Perhaps you'll find the perfect dog for your family. If you are interested in adoption, please fill out our ONLINE ADOPTION APPLICATION found on our site also.    BEAR’S Mission is finding good homes for abandoned Akitas. Most of our dogs come from local animal shelters after being found as strays or turned in by their owners.
