Today our Jane gave birth to her one and only puppy. It’s a beautiful brown white pinto male and he is quite similar to his dad Shadow.
Unfortunately, he will not have any brothers and sisters to play with, but we are proud and happy about this little guy.
Carmen and Heiko from Biehla traditionally invited to their little Akita meeting. Altogether we were 16 American Akitas, one Akita and three dogs of different breeds. As usual it was a nice afternoon for all Akita friends. As Chey has got some problems to walk long tours she stayed home with our daughter and we went there with Jane and Shadow. The weather was a warm and sunny till a slight rain started in the evening. But that did not matter.
Thank you very much, dear Carmen and Heiko, it was a wonderful afternoon for all of us.

We are proud to annouce a very exciting breeding has taken place between our Jane and Shadow! This is an exceptional breeding that we are so excited about. We are expecting puppies with big bone, great coats and wonderful tempermants. Jane had some outstanding puppies that we are very proud of. Shadow has sired now for the first time.We are very excited by this combination, as it is a blend of some American Top Breedlines. Enquires are welcome for this litter.
This lovely video was sent to us by Doris from Austria. With her two girls Ally and Annika (Geisha from our G-litter) she has a wonderful couple which is really different. However, Jack-Russel and American Akita harmonise with each other in such a brilliant way that sometimes you can enjoy those funny scenes like in this video.
Altogether 25 dog friends of our dog school met in Dürrröhrsdorf/ Dittersbach in the morning of Easter Monday for a longer walk through the Saxon Switzerland.
We began our tour walking through the Lieblingstal and then went up to the Schöne Höhe.
The Belvedere on the Schöne Höhe hill, a tower decorated with frescoes after works of Johann Wolfgang Goethe. Founded by Johann Gottlob von Quandt, it includes a local history exhibition. We were lucky to have our own guided tour while our dogs patiently waited outside.
Later on we continued our way passing villages like Elbersdorf, Porschendorf, Liebethal and Wünschendorf. Now and then there were some little stops for Bockwurst and beer.
Altogether we went 14 kilometres and we as well as our dogis were happy to be back again at our car in the lat. afternoon. All in all it was a good Easter tour. And here there are some photos.

On March 20th there was the big day: we presented Shadow and Gina on a show for the first time.
Both of them showed a calm and confident behaviour in the ring and got excellent 1st. Furthermore we got the breeding license for Shadow and Gina.
And finally Shadow was 2nd BEST IN SHOW. All in all it was a successful day for our Akitas and us as well.
