Nice! I grew up in Montpelier - I used to ski at Stowe, Sugarbush & Mad River. It's beautiful up there but TERRIBLY cold. I'm loving South Carolina! We've got the mountains, the ocean, and only mild season changes. But no snow, which is okay for…

OMG! Where are you in Vermont? I was born/raised there and bought my first Akita from Akiko Akita's in MA. That is so neat that you are up there! I have tried to contact Mijakai Kennel through FB but have not received a reply -- maybe because it is…

I have some experience with this - I got my first Akita as a puppy (in my avatar) when my eldest daughter was 4-yrs-old and all was well. She was well trained (both my akita and my daughter - LOL!), they bonded, and we never had issues. Then I had t…

WrylyBrindle -- Where are you located? Sounds exciting with your new Kai Ken kennel! It looks like the Ohio and Michigan are the closest to the east coast. It's a shame there is no one in the Southeast. Lots of Akita and Shiba breeders though! …

Oh my goodness!! He is so CUTE!!

Hmmmm... my akita's were/are not clingy in the sense of needing to be "touching" me. They just like to be in the same room where they can see me all the time. Any they both follow me from room-to-room if I am doing things around the house…

Great photos!! We enjoyed the sun today as well. I am with you!! Bring on the Spring Time!!

My first akita was a bit clingy and toward the end of her days, she developed severe separation anxiety with me in particular. She was NOT extraordinarily affectionate, she just liked to be in the same room with one of us and would follow from room…

She's beautiful!

Congratulations! Can't wait to see pics! Forgive my ignorance, what class should a kai be placed in?
-
Thanks everyone! She has adjusted to our family so quickly, it's like we have always had her! Even though we had planned to wait until spring, I knew when I met her, it was meant to be! I will keep you all posted on her progress. akitarise: She …

He is gorgeous! I haven't seen many pictures of the Hokkaido, and didn't realize they were so red. How pretty! I am interested in seeing the b/t ones too.

Thanks! We're happy to love a dog that is so deserving of a good home. Here's some pics: At the shelter when we first got her outside into the "walking area". (my daughter is holding her and talking with one of the vet-tech employees) ht…

They are very beautiful!

Curious... Is the potential growth issue just with neutering males too early or also with spaying females?? I can't remember the exact age that my female akita was spayed but it was definately prior to a year-old and before going into heat. And sh…

That is hilarious!! Reminds me of this youtube video of an akita pup: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGJxUuKmJ5k&feature=related (I have been living vicariously through others until I am ready for another Akita) ~Jenn

Awe! She is super cute! I love the "hopping" around! What a ball of energy!

Kaeda looks so sweet in those photos!!

He is gorgeous! I love his coloring and brindle pattern!
-
Oh... the... temptation!!! They are adorable!! We are looking at getting another Akita again, but I really want to get a rescue or one that needs to be re-homed! I hope they find a wonderful home before I change my mind! They are super cute! And…

Those calendar pics are beautiful! She is a very unique brindle girl!
-
She is absolutely stuning! Her brindle colouring is gorgeous!
-
Amazing! Those pics are so wonderful!! Fantastic photography! They would make a great calendar!! I must admit.... my heart is still with the akita. My husband keeps telling me to just get another female.... and hopefully she won't be as big as m…
-
Wow! They are absolutely stunning! Hmmmm... maybe I want another Akita!!
-
Thanks everyone for answering my questions! LOL! "Velcro dog" is a good description of my dear Nika. It was a bit annoying at times, but now I am kinda missing it.... Christmas will be especially tough without her. Although, I didn't fi…
-
I have no regrets regarding raising/training Nika. She was a wonderful Akita with impecable manners and fantastic with my kids. People were always impressed. The only thing I will do differently is keep my next dog crate trained. She was crate t…

Thank you for this great info! It's more comprehensive than what I have found "out there". I am considering getting another Japanese breed and I am very intrigued by the Kai Ken.

They are truly beautiful!! Congrats!
