Ok folks! Weâll be introducing you all to the pups tomorrow, however, today we are going to take the time to express our gratitude.
First, we thank God for where we are in life and the way He has worked things together for us to be in the position we are in. He has been Faithful in all things. Thank You, Lord for this fruitful season and wonderful puppies. You are Faithful.
Second, I want to personally take the time to thank my wife. She never grew up thinking she would be a dog person, she never had large dogs, and yet here we are. None of this would be possible without her. We continually come up to points which are outside of her comfort zone and the adjustments and changes we have had to make in the last few years have been wild. Yet, this beautiful, Lion-hearted, woman has been there every step of the way. There is no one I would rather be building with. I love you, sweet woman. Thank you.
Third, I want to thank my parents. I wouldnât know about animals at all if it werenât for catching my dadâs passion and my momâs compassion. I would never have gotten my first Tosa back in highschool if it werenât for them giving me the chance to show a dog is what you make of it. To this day, we wouldnât have gotten to where we are if it wasnât for their help. Dante got to the USA on my fatherâs birthday and my dad let me step away from his party to run across town and get a dog from IAH then house it at their home until we were ready to leave. Thank you for being patient with that headstrong kid who kept keeping you awake all night to debate animal psychology. Thank you for everything.

Next, I want to thank some companies and staff.
First, I want to thank South Bosque Veterinary clinic for general care and late birth assistance. Above all, Dr. Sharpe is the best Veterinary Professional I have met in my entire career. If youâre in the Waco area, it doesnât get better than Dr. Sharpe. Thank you.
Next, I want to thank the Waco Animal Emergency Hospital. Their care and assistance during the mid to late delivery process was indispensable. It does not get better than Dr. Sharpe, but the staff and Vet I worked with that night I would consider on par. You all have our highest respect and deepest gratitude. Thank you.
We prefer natural conception and let the dogs try themselves freely, however, 512 Pet Supply South, 254 Pet Supply provided some of our PG testing, and performed AI for us so we could be sure we got this litter on the way. It is an awesome and affordable service that has produced excellent results. Thank you guys.
We want to thank the members of the Tosa Inu Club of America. We are so honored to know and work with each of you. Thank you for joining us as we work to restore and establish this truly wonderful breed.
Mac Town Bullyz, I have about ten things I can be thanking you guys for, but I donât want this to take all day. Thank you for allowing us to crash your dog show and for the referrals to the people at 512 and 254 Pet Supply Stores. Thank you for your advice on Kikyoâs estrus management. Thank you.

Back to personal thank youâs
I want to thank Ms. Aubrey for assisting us with pet sitting just after the dogs got out to the property. It might not have seemed like much at the time, but the last time you pet sat was the last time we took a vacation. Thank you so much for your help, though I know the pups terrified you, lol! God bless you and your family and thank you.
Getting to the last few people and I have saved you guys to the end because Iâm going to embarrass you, lol!
Dealing with the Sire first, Mrs. Monique and Mr. Martin, thank you for trusting us with Dante. He has been a huge light in our lives and we are honored that you have given us the opportunity have him help us in restoring the breed here in the Americas. Iâd like to take an extra few sentences to further thank Mrs. Monique. Thank you for being available to answer our random questions and give advice on some of the finer points of natal care. Your help has been indispensable. On that noteâŚ
Now dealing with the Dam, Mrs. Erika and Mr. Kasa, thank you for trusting us with Kikyo. She has been an exceptional example of a Tosa female and is loved by all who know her. As with Dante, we are honored that you have given us the opportunity have her help us in restoring the breed here in the Americas. The same as above, Iâd like to take an extra few sentences to further thank Mrs. Erika. Thank you for being available to answer our random questions and give advice on some of the finer points of natal care. Your help has been indispensable.
I have saved Erika and Monique for last because I want to point out that they are Tosa Inu breeders. We are a kennel that has been breeding Tosas for nearly twenty years⌠and we still had questions and things we hadnât seen before. I think the most wonderful part of this entire process has been the opportunity to rely on people like you two ladies and see the quality of not just your knowledge but also your character as you came alongside us to help see this goes well. Our breed needs people like you more than anything else and I am so glad and encouraged that they have you. We are certainly not finished and there is another litter on the way next month (oops! I guess I let out the secret, lol) so expect us to bother you a little more and send you bunches of puppy pictures as if you donât already have puppies you can look at if you want to see some, hahahaha! Seriously though, I cannot thank you both enough on so many levels and I look forward to what the future for the breed. Thank you for sharing hope. We are stronger together and better for it. God bless you and your families and God Bless the Tosa.
