Facebook Junketsu...

Yes, I do take pictures of the new puppies... it's just been harder to post it in this blog then to upload to facebook page.

So if you are not a fan already, please visit www.facebook.com/junketsu for updated photos of the puppies.
They are starting to walk and play with each other now.  Their eyes are open too.
They will be three weeks old this coming Thursday.  Where did the time go?!?!

Born on June 28th, 2012

Waka has blessed us with three females and one male on June 28th, 2012.
Everyone is doing well and everyday, the puppies are growing.
Sorry, all puppies are spoken for...  but please be sure to check in and check out cute puppy photos like this one!

just a picture of the kids...

Happy Friday!

Our Akitas got published!

Headquarter of AKIHO in Japan publishes a magazine every 2-3 months and mails them out the all members in the world.

This current edition, three of our pups are in it!  How exciting is that!!

Here is the page of them. (Top Left: Kita, Top Right: Waka, Middle Left: Gobo/Yuusaku)

We are proud parents of them!!

Waka is pregnant!

She's pregnant!  Confirmed by Dr. Michaelson at the small animal hospital.  He saw 3-4 puppies moving around.  Waka was bred to Kita 4 weeks ago, so the puppies are due at the end of June.
Boy... this month is going to fly by!!  Gotta get the puppy room ready!!
