Two notes on Para (a girl, and six months old). First one: she is delightfully goofy. Goofier than any other akita I’ve run across, although I’m very short on akita puppies so far. Second one: oh my god, she’s only six months old and already this big? I know akitas are normally pretty large but she’s gonna be a giant!


Hey, was just out for a stroll from my building to where the IT department for College of Agricultural Sciences is held (they are cutely called “ROOTS”) and ran into an American Akita. There haven’t been any showing up in the dog park, but then, I’m usually lurking above like the cat who loves me. I remembered that I had wanted to drop you a note and somehow I don’t seem to have an email for you anymore (puzzling!). I have updates and such as this paragraph might make you guess. Email me, Adam!
