Ghost

Akita · Male

Ghost ❤️ Ghost has been let down by so many people through absolutely no fault of his own. Now, this gorgeous lad is looking for something he’s never truly had — a safe, loving and forever home where he can finally feel secure and cherished.Ghost is a truly striking boy. Tall, handsome and friendly, he has so much love and potential to give. He will thrive with someone who can offer him a calm, patient and structured environment, along with a consistent daily routine so he knows what to expect and what is expected of him.He is enthusiastic, alert and absolutely loves his walks. When he’s playing, he can be a little boisterous, so due to his size, an adult-only home would be best for Ghost.We have no doubt that, once he has settled and learned to trust, Ghost will become a wonderfully loyal companion. All he needs is someone willing to give him the second chance he so desperately deserves.Could you be the person who helps Ghost flourish and reach his full potential? Could you give this special boy the forever home he has been waiting for?Ghost is currently in Blackpool but can travel throughout the UK.If you think you could offer Ghost the calm, loving and structured home he needs, please complete the adoption form9090 views00 commentsPost not marked as likedRecent PostsSee AllHachi227Post not marked as likedRocky6700 comments0Post not marked as likedZeus3350 comments0Post not marked as likedCommentsCommenting on this post isn't available anymore.

About Ghost

What life with Ghost looks like

Ghost is an adult akita dog waiting at Second Chance Akita Rescue (S.C.A.R.) in United Kingdom.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Ghost, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Ghost?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Second Chance Akita Rescue (S.C.A.R.) handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Ghost on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Ghost if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Second Chance Akita Rescue (S.C.A.R.) will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Ghost already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Ghost isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Second Chance Akita Rescue (S.C.A.R.) early rather than rehoming privately; they know Ghost and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
