We traditionally go for a walk with a little group of Akitas and their owners on Boxing Day. This year we climbed the Picho, a big hill in the mountainous country of Lusatia. Unfortunately, there was no snow anymore but we had some great sunny walking-weather.
Having some exercise in fresh air was delightful for all of us. As usual we want to show you some pics of that day.

22nd October, 2009
Today is our Chey's 12th birthday. Every day again we are glad that our old girl keeps up with us and our other Akitas quite well. However, the ravages of time demanded their tributes, and it hurts to see Cheyenne that used to be so powerful, is losing her agility and power more and more. It's difficult for her to stand up or lay down, to get into our car or to walk quickly.
Still she is such a beautiful American Akita female with an outstanding temperament and our sweetheart. We hope our good old girl will stay with us quite a long time.
Dear Akita friends, in July we advised you of Lasse Hallström's film "Hachiko - A Dog's Tale", which appears in German cinemas in this autumn.
This is a Hollywood-remake of the Japanese original- the 1987 film Hachiko monogatari. A Wonderful movie that tells the true
story of an Akita's devotion to his master.
Recently we got the German trailer to the new film which we want to show you here as well.We think this film is a must for every
Akita lover and we definitely will go and watch this film. Although we think, Hallström's film will not be able to hold a candle to the Japanese production due to its lack of authenticity.
Today we celebrate our junior’s first birthday. When we remember the first pictures of him and the sweet ball of wool that we picked up in Czarny Dunajec, it’s hard to believe what a powerful and imposing American Akita he has become.
In every way Shadow is something unique for us and never before we had or have bred an American Akita that was similar. Right from the start we were fully streched cause of Shadow’s lively and hot temper, and his never-ending zest for action caused some trouble in our family pack.
Shadow is incredibly curious and likes to control everything in and around our house.
He is very alert and shows us whenever there is something unusual beyond our fence.
He is well-behaved in our dog school and usually does what he is told to do.
Apart from that he behaves very differently. In his territory – and that includes not only our garden but all the paths around Ohorn where we go for a walk – he feels like a macho and grumbles to all quadrupeds, no matter if male or female. On neutral terrain he is relaxed and mostly ignores other dogs. Also, in a reastaurant he can be good and waits quietly under our table.
Smooching with Shadi is so much fun and he really enjoys those minutes.
All in all we can say that we never want to miss Shadi again. He is a part of our family and has brought a lot of joy, variety and topics for conversations into our daily routine. He is not quite ready, of course, and still has to learn some good manners, but with repose, calm and consistency we will manage it.
