Yup, my akita Kuda. He's now a year and a half old and the hubby and I don't know how we ever lived w/out him before. Luckily we did our homework and had some experience w/ large breeds so he fits in perfect with us. I am still amazed at how well behaved he is for being intact but we haven't hit the 2yr mark yet either. My aunt breeds them and has another litter due so I'm trying to convince the hubby that Kuda needs a little sis to play with. :wink:
