Dont mind you asking at all!
I have up until recently always been a bit of a feline fancier, but hubby, grew up on a farm with dogs around him always, so always wanted us to get one.
We held of for years, firstly because we were renting, then because we had a baby (didnt want a dog around until daughter was old enough to be involved in training etc) then renovations on a bought house began. Finally we got to the point that fences were secure, home owned, child old enough to understand what having a dog is all about. I could hold him off no longer.
Because I was not much of a doggy person, we had to 1. get a pup to allow me some bonding time, 2. Spend alot of time choosing a breed that would suit our home and our family nature. Regardless of said reputations and history, after months of research the Akita sat on the top of our list, and met every need of nature and personality that we were looking for. So, the decision made, the breeder search began, we were very lucky to find a lovely lady, that was really good with us, and made sure that we were armed with everything we needed to know.....the good, the bad and the ugly (although we had already researched it and was prepared) she let us into her home to meet her dogs, and my love affair began there.
So all history now, but the beginning of my passion, love and admiration of our canine companions, particuarly the Akita.
