Sorry if I come across as aggressive, I understand and agree with your point. In this case I can see the other side as a friend works with the akita group.
The friend homed an ex poorly kept dog, we believe kept as a status attack dog. She took a good while to reprogram. She is a great pet now but was very trying.
Enough of this....POST mor photos of pets.

Well obviously, for the reasons already given...
But, in my experience, most breed-specific rehoming charities will take cross-breeds of the breed they deal with, because the dog will have a better chance of finding a home through them than through a general rehoming centre. In this case, whilst the dog may be a "mongrel", it is an Akita cross-breed and so could potentially be rehomed more quickly through an Akita rehoming charity.
The other thing charities will almost always do, if they can't home take them in and home them temporarily, is at least publicise dogs of the breed they deal with (or crosses) that are available for rehoming. Which is why I think they've been pretty crappy in this instance.
Anyway, let's hope someone will be interested in this boy.
