  • Odd that everyone has a problem with trimming the nails of the Kai. I have had as many as 25 Kai at a time and all have had their mails trimmed on a basis of when needed. I trim with nail clippers when they are puppies and until they are 4 months or…
  • Daiichi's parents are already up there. Sire is "Mavrik" and dam is "KiKi" Cookie was born pure dark color with only a brindle spot on the top of one ear. She was actually dead when I found her stuffed under the padding in the …
  • This is a picture of a pair that I sent to Hungary. The male is sired by Daiichi the red Kai and the other was sired by "TAKA" a very dark blk/brindle. You would never guess that one parent was a red based on the color and looks of these t…
  • Yes I know that there has been a discussion and that is why I thought I would put up pictures with explanations of color. The black coat, whether it is dark coal color or lighter as long as there is brindling in the coat, it is a black/brindle. One …
  • This picture is of Rikkiro, who was the original male that was imported in 1990. He was 4 years old at the time of import and was the leading sire in Japan at the time of sale. On a side note, when "Suki" was a young dog under a year of ag…
  • This is GRCH/NAT CH. MINIMEADOW SUKI. The only picture that I can find of her off hand. The picture is very dark, but if you look closely, you can see she had a good amount of brindle to her, just not wide bold pattern.
  • Just to show you how different the color can be. This female is out of 'TORI" (not "TORA" and "SUKI", both of whom are very dark black with very little brindle. This female has produced the red Kai in a pass litter. The conn…
  • This is a litter of born red/brindle Kai puppies a few days old.
  • This picture is BISS, GRCH/NAT/FKCA CH. CLASSY'S MIAKI NO TORA. Sire is "TORA" and dam is "WISHES" "KiKi" was the major contribitor with Mavrik to the red/brindles and the red.
  • This would be "Wishes" and her sire was "Mavrik" and dam was a female registered as "MINIMEADOW TRINKET"
  • Mavrik produced a few ture red/brindle, but mostly produced the black/brindle which is the most common of the colors. Mavrik is the sire to 6 light red brindle and 4 true red/brindle. Mavrik produced 42 puppies in his lifetime. The red and red/brind…
  • The above picture is of "Mavrik" who is out of two black/brindle from Japan. Of all the litters that his sire and dam produced, he was the only one that was this brilliant mahagany red with a ton of brindle to him. His sire and dam wre imp…
  • All Kai get to live out their lives here. I had agreed in the very beginning to keep the Kai from the original importer and let them live out their lives here and I did just that. At times I had 30 Kai here! I just lost the last Kai I received from …
  • OOPS! 21 Kai here. How can I forget Chie, Yumi and Kaboo!!! Marian Classy Kennel, MI
  • Please let me rebuke some of your statements. I will start with I do not have a hatred for AKC. I have well over a hundred champions to date with around 40 in just AKC alone. I have always worked well with and enjoyed AKC and plan a future with them…
  • ABSOLUTELY NO NO NO!!!!!!!!! The issue of registering the Kai with AKC is one of the issues that divided and destroyed the few breeders of the Kai a few years ago. In my lifetime, the Kai will NEVER be registered with AKC. There are some Kai registe…
  • I don't really think the females are more playful then the males. I do think the male puppies are more serious about their protection and being there for you then the females though. The females seem to be a little less trusting of people and strang…
  • No, there is no difference in temperament between the two types. As Brad had explained, there is no such thing as Kai Kuro and Daiiro pure looks as all types have been bred together. The Daiiro was used to hunt the deer because of the slender look, …
  • Well, she looks like she is settling in pretty good and your right she and Yumi look like twinkies! Here is YumYum.
  • Like I said earlier, I think and act like a Shiba or Kai. Sometimes I think I react more like a Kai or Shiba before I think to situations anymore. LOL!!! There is a lot of females that will get along well but if there is that little bit of possesiv…
  • All I can say is I have lived and raised The Shiba for 19 years now and I dearly love them and hope to always have both Shiba & Kai in my life forever, but if God said to me tomorrow that I can only have one breed pick it......it would be the Ka…
  • They are a double coat breed. Slightly longer then the Shiba coat and not as long as the Akita coat. The outer is to be slightly harsh with the undercoat soft. The coat is to stand from the body. if it is long enough to start flowing down the top an…
  • Well now that I am passed my judging commitments for the last 2 months, perhaps i can get up here more often. On a show note a Kai owned by MijiKai kennel went reserve Best in Show this past weekend. Very nicely handled by Marsha's grand daughter to…
  • Thank you everyone for the warm and nice comments. I don't check up here everyday so bear with me when I do take a look and proceed to do catch up. I am more then willing to share any personal opinions as well as hopefully some knowledge about the K…
  • As a well known kennel in the Kai breed, I have tried numerous times to post and add to discussions, but all post have been blocked (I would guess) and deleted as none appear. I would love to actively discuss the Kai with anyone that is interested. …
