Wild Hunt American Akitas

We are located in NM and WI. Our dedication to the Akita focuses on showcasing every facet of the br We have been in akitas for over a decade. akitaclub.org

One of us is located in New Mexico (Madison) and one of us lives in Wisconsin (Tori). Our breeding philosophy is simple: we want to produce healthy, sound akitas with excellent type that thrive as beloved members of families. We believe that akitas should have friendly, stable temperaments that make success possible. That might mean doing performance sports, helping their owners with subsistence h

unting, owning the show ring, or simply sleeping at the foot of the bed. We love when our dogs win ribbons, but the best part of breeding is knowing that we have made it possible for other families to experience the same joy our dogs have brought us. The best akitas are versatile, multipurpose dogs. They are fiercely loyal with incredible intelligence and a wicked sense of humor. They can be challenging, but we wouldn't have them any other way. We do not currently have any planned litters, but we are always happy to connect people to responsible, ethical breeders who health test and produce excellent temperaments. Please visit the Akita Club of America website for great detailed breed information.

Grayslake has been good to us 🥰

Finn went Best of Breed three days in a row, as well as earning an Owner Handled Group 2, and OH Group 4.

Then he topped off today with an Owner Handled Reserve Best In Show!!! 🤩🤩🤩

It was so sweet, he looked over and smiled as the judge announced him ❤

A huge thank you to Mr. Timothy Graham David Thomas, Mr. Robert L Vandiver, Mr. James M Fankhauser, Pamela S Lambie, Mr. Daniel J Smyth Esq., and Mr. Johnny R Shoemaker for finding my sweet boy among the lovely dogs present.

Catching up with some results from last weekend! Finn earned his second leg in Senior level of Barn Hunt with a Second Place finish 😊
He would have had his third leg as well as his title had his momma listened to him in his other run! Finn hit all four perfectly, but he hit them so quickly, I didn't believe him, so I got a hard fast lesson in trusting your freaking dog 😆 I know better, but I would way rather he be great, and leave me to improve myself! Oh well, he was a very good boi 🥰

So very proud of this sweet girl - she got her RATM this weekend! She is only the 6th akita to achieve this title, and she is the first show CH akita to receive it. 🙂

This good girl always does such a wonderful job for me at Barn Hunt practice. 😊

So fast 😂

Happy Birthday to this sweet Finn boi today 😊 I love this guy with all my heart, and in turn he puts his whole heart into everything we do together ❤
We have been working on so many sports recently that he has really loved, so we'll see where this next year takes us! There are only so many activities I can enter in a weekend, and keeping them straight is tough haha!
A big squeeze goes out to Shenron, GG, and Tomoe! I know you are all getting spoiled today too! 🤗

Very proud of our kennel this year in the 2021 Barn Hunt statistics - our sweet boy Finn was #1 fastest akita in novice AND open. His mom, Saber, was the #18 fastest masters dog out of all breeds in the state of New Mexico and the 4th fastest akita in masters. Our Barn Hunt club in NM has many incredibly skilled masters dogs, so it is really an honor to be in the top 20 for our state. The wonderful Morgie was the 5th fastest akita in masters! So proud of these sweet pups! (And very grateful that Finn tolerated his "other mom's" handling while I was visting Wisconsin this month. We found lots of rats together. Not quite as good as hunting with his real mama, but a fun change of pace for both of us. Not very many akitas can tolerate a complete handler switch!)

KDR Photography got some sweet pictures of Finn at our barn hunt trial a few weeks back 🥰

08/11/2021

We had a very fun and successful weekend at scentwork, where Saber got her novice all around title! 😊

02/10/2021

Good day for Finn pup! He went Best of Breed under judge Linda Clark, then went on to win an Owner Handled Working Group 4th 😊

Emmett is gearing up to run at the invitational in Orlando again this December! In the meantime, enjoy this awesome clip a friend made for us! VOLUME UP!

I have gotten pretty behind in our updates since we have been so busy with our dog weekends!
Finn finished his Championship, has gotten several Owner Handled Group placements, earned his CGCA, and was handled by a P*e Wee at a show. He is currently #6 Owner Handled akita in the country.
Emmett got his FCAT3, and he earned his Versatility Award from the Akita Club of America! He was also invited to the Obedience Classic in Orlando Florida in December for his accomplishments in the obedience ring.

This good girl did well at her scentwork trial a few weeks ago - but this photo explains why we do dog sports and why we encourage our puppy owners to do them too. 😊

Finn got two personal bests in Fast CAT at Greater Racine Kennel Club today! It's so exciting watching him progress. Finn doesn't run as technically well as Emmett, and can't pull off those random psycho fast runs, however he USUALLY beats Emmett's times on any given day, due to his brute strength. I think if I can get him running a little smarter, he is going to be a force to be reckoned with!💪💪💪

This girl and I are incredibly happy to get back to classes after all that time off for COVID! She’s doing amazing. 😊

We had another majorly successful day for these dogs!
Morgan got her fifth qualifying leg to complete her MASTER title in Barn Hunt with a second place finish! She is the third akita in breed history to achieve it!
Then Finn tops the day off with second and third place finishes on his very first day being moved up to the Barn Hunt Open class!
Onward and upward for these good babies!❤💪

Bless his little heart he is so cute 😩
Finn Earned his Barn Hunt Novice title with a second place finish at Oh, Rats! In Sheboygan Falls today. It's been a busy couple weeks for us, and these dogs are working hard for their momma 🥰

24/05/2021

Morgan earned her FCAT2 this last weekend 😊 Beautiful venue and fantastic crew!!

01/05/2021

Sweet Morgie girl got her forth Master leg in Barn Hunt tonight no thanks to her bad momma! I made several critical errors that would cost most dogs their qualifying run... like getting trapped in the distance challenge after finding her first rat (when I absolutely know better). I was able to not only send her all the way out to complete the tunnel without me, she came back and found another rat in the distance challenge that I was basically blocking her from the whole time, and was clear. 😅 That run shaved years off my life, but she pulled it off with a First Place and High in Class my good girl!! 😍

26/04/2021

And while the Wisconsin Wild Hunt crew was having a great time at FASTCAT, the New Mexico team did Barn Hunt this weekend!

Saber got three Q's in master's, including two 4th place finishes in a large and skilled master A class. It was her very first weekend in master's, so we are extremely proud of her hard work. And Friday got his RATN title, took third in a novice class of 29 dogs, and got first in his height division for his first open leg. Introducing:

Our sweet baby boi is officially a performance dog 🥺😭 Finn competed in his first trial this weekend, and got two legs toward his RATN in barn hunt!

The second judge we had threw her hands up and cheered in congratulations for him after completing his second leg. So of course Finn took that as an invitation and threw his arms around her shoulders to kiss her whole face 😅🤦‍♀️ I apologized profusely for the bad akita clobbering her, but she just laughed and hugged him back thank goodness 😄

Sabriel and I had a lot of fun at our (very cold) Barn Hunt practice today. She is such a fun dog to work, and so good at this game. In this level of Barn Hunt, you don’t know how many rats you have, so you have to work as a team to check the whole room. As you can tell, she knew she was done way before I did! (I really should know to listen when she goes to the door. 😂)

Check out Emmett and Tori, who had a ton of fun in Orlando last week at the FASTCAT invitational. It will be airing Sunday. They got 23rd place overall. Good boy, Emmett!
