I wasn't able to keep her for long, but I think about her often and look forward to the opportunity to raise another Akita some day.Jakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00482549578598366599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7524655808844578153.post-40748756793263815252016-02-26T17:46:03.955-08:002016-02-26T17:46:03.955-08:00I have had my Akita for 8 yrs with 3 girls and let...I have had my Akita for 8 yrs with 3 girls and let me just say this...the thought of her getting old brings tears to my eyes.

They will tell you Akitas are large, strong willed animals that can be dangerous, and that they are not for the weak willed owner. <br /><br />In contrast, pit bull owners and promoters all seem to be in on a giant conspiracy to spread misinformation about pit bulls. They dress them up and pose them in goofy looking items, with silly props, thinking that if they can make a pit bull look goofy, it's not a threat. <br /><br />These people make their small children pose for felony child endangerment pictures with their maulers, and coo "look, proof that, these are nanny dogs" (ignoring the fact that pit bulls have by far the most violent record of any breed when it comes to disfiguring and fatal attacks on children) - as if showing a snapshot of a pit bull *not* torturing a victim somehow trumps all of the sudden, random, violent and totally unpredictable attacks committed by pit bulls. As if showing a scorpion *not* stinging someone proves that scorpions never sting.<br /><br />What a sad contrast. If only pit bull fans were as honest as fans of Akitas, or of Caucasian Ovcharkas. If only there were some truth in advertising required.Dick "The Truth" Johnsonhttp://www.zombo.com/noreply@blogger.com
