Akita Association

Really enjoyed judging this prestigious championship show many thanks to my two stewards who kept the show flowing, and the committee which put a tremendous amount of work to keep this show on for us.

 I did notice however that we had quite a few dogs that were lacking in lay back of shoulder short upper arms and lack of post sternum, & narrow fronts, if we don’t have the correct front assembly the dogs have no reach to give the correct side gait, all dogs judged had outstanding temperaments all dogs judged had a full incorrect dentation and called for scissor bite, all dogs shown where presented beautifully.
