Well, now it is time to show some new photos again. Summer time has gone and even if we did not go on holiday with our doggies, some photos of our protégés reached us. And so we updated the pages of Fumiko, Eichi, Kenzo, Goya and Annika with pretty new photos.
Have fun watching them.
Today, on 15 June, it is our Fumiko's birthday. She is 9 years old now.
We hope and wish that we can spend many further years with her.
On Saturday we had a fun-dog- tournament. 25 dogs with their leaders had to overcome a parkour on time. There was a penalty for incorrectly solved tasks. At the start there were well-trained German Shepherds, Vizslas, French Bulldogs, Jack Russells, Ridgebacks, Beagles and our Fumiko. She resisted all temptations and reached an excellent 6th place.
We are sooooo proud of our girls. She did really well.

Also, we are pleased about Fumiko`s 6th place at the fun tournament and join the birthday wishes with greetings to all the other F-girls out there.

The best time of year has finally started and we enjoy the many little spring signs of nature, as we saw it for the first time.
And we are also happy about the first spring greetings from Lünen by Susanne and Thomas with Yuri (Hakuro) and Icy. They tell us that their two dogs are still a good team which they can be proud of.
And Heiko sent us a few spring greetings. On this occasion he visited Bea’s son Buddy in Frankfurt, who obviously still knows who his previous master is. Or was there just some yummy ice cream?
We wish you a Happy Easter with this photo of our yesterday's Easter walk in Großharthau with Eichi, birthday Akita Ginkou and Shadi and Jane. It is still quite changeable and cold, but the sun timidly came out and some few anemones can be guessed.
After having finished our renovation in Ohorn, we now have time for a short holiday. This time it is Kaimling / Vohenstrauß in Bavaria somewhere in the Upper Palatinate. We were lucky with the weather: sunshine and snow. Yesterday we walked through the Lerautal and passed some natural beauties with such evocative names as sheep bridge, Wolfslohklamm or devils churn. Today we were on the Tannesberg where we could enjoy a spectacular view far beyond the Upper Palatinate Forest. And of course we want to praize our inn "Am Sonnenhang". Recommendable for hiking-lovers and Akita friends, good food, friendly hosts and doggies are welcome.

Inspired by pictures of Balou and Debbie Nala with their owners we thought we join the Selfie trend and give it a try as well. Not so easy, because Shadi is not exactly the ideal cuddly dog in front of the camera.
The results can be found here and we would appreciate if you send us your Selfies as well, so we can publish it here.
Happy birthday to all H-litter Akitas from Hira, Kodi, Maggy and us of course.
Just Kenzo and the sky
