We are located in the Northwest suburbs of Chicago Illinois.

We have been hooked on Akita's since 1985, when we bought our first Akita puppy. A couple of years later we bought another one and decided to get even more involved in the Breed and we joined the Squaw Peak Akita Club of the greater Phoenix area.  We met a lot of great Akita people in that club, with which we are still friends with today.

It wasn't until the spring of 2000 that we bought our first show puppy, and we have been showing ever since then.  Boomer (who was our first show dog) won a Group 2  in his first puppy match, and also won a Best of Breed as an adult.

We are members of the Akita Club of America, Akita Club of Illini Valley, and the Elgin Kennel Club, which is an all Breed club in the Chicago Illinois area.

We feel that it is very important to be educated on the Akita Breed. We are dedicated to preserving the intelligence, beauty and dignity of this magnificent breed.
