So grateful to Anita Freiler Palmer for creating her magic for our banner this year. Warmed my heart to see it displayed at this year’s Akita National Specialty.

God wanted our sweet Bobby to be close to him & he is greatly missed. But our precious boy will never be forgotten.

I love you Dr. Ilka Wagner-Van Zandt

“Today is Mika’s Gotcha Day. This beautiful girl became a part of our family two years ago. She is sweet, friendly, and very playful.
Mika has become a great companion for our Kona and for us. We get compliments every where we go with these two.

I would like to thank the SWAT team for all of their efforts in helping find this magnificent breed their forever homes.

If anyone would like more information about the Akita breed or is interested in adding a furry family member please reach out to me or South West Akita Tactical Rescue”

BAILEY ❤️

God said: I need somebody to pull sleds and find bombs, yet gentle enough to love babies and lead the blind. Somebody who will spend all day on a couch with a resting head and supportive eyes, to lift the spirits of a broken heart. So God made a dog.
