@CluckNDoodle, could I change emi's picture ?View attachment 2460010
This is our beautiful girl Emi!
We bought her from an Akita breeder, before Emi we had an old girl that, for many years was our house/guard dog, she looked like a sister to Emi, but she became so old and eventually passed, and we like having a guard dog in the house, and it also made the loss easier by bringing a new puppy into the family.
She knows a couple of tricks like sit up, but what she is best at, is being a guard dog, she has a fenced-in area on our property, anytime someone drives up the gravel driveway, she barks so loud you can hear her from inside the house, and she loves her family!
Her breed is the majestic American Akita!
Fun fact! The Akita is a large and powerful dog breed with a noble and intimidating presence. They were originally used for guarding royalty and nobility in feudal Japan. These dogs also tracked and hunted wild boar, black bear, and sometimes deer. The Akita does not back down from challenges and does not frighten easily.
I am sorry for the long entry, but I couldn't resist!
, aaand we walked out with 2. They are currently about a year and a half old, maybe slightly more than a year and a half old. We thankfully at least still have them. She’s the one that is usually playful and crazy but she also takes long naps. They both are our resident mice catchers (with the help of mousetraps sometimes
). She’s the sneaky one definitely as well. Zoey is sneaky and mischievous, while Oliver is always looking innocent, with deep, deep eyes.
