# Akita Rescue of West NY

Last Saturday, Kurt and I went to a Picnic for our local Akita Rescue. Mika did so well!!!! Actually, she usually does well at this picnic. Don't know why. Unfortunately, we didn't get to stay for most of the contests. Kurt and I had a birthday party to attend close to home and the picnic is 2 hour…

Was Koji there?

Wow, that looks like a great time! I think the baby ballerina is my fav. Where where Mika and Keigo's costumes? :-P The puppy from the movie is really good looking! And I think the brindle in the third pic is stunning (although not quite as pretty as Lani ;-). I have to be honest, I had never really been a fan of brindle as a coat color on any dog until Lani came around. Now, I love it!

ALL YOUR AKITAS ARE BELONGING TO RACHAEL!

Although me and dog dressing up don't go together, there were some pretty funny costumes there. And a lot of good looking dogs!

Dave: I didn't think I would make it to the contests. We stayed a little longer than we should have. Jessica: Koji lives in MA now. I completely forgot to update you!! SORRY. He was adopted!!! I'll post the pic in his thread. Rachael: I love the Military Akita too. I felt bad for the kids, though. It was 90 degrees out!!
