These are all of our furkids including our show team, breeding team, rescue, retired dogs and youngsters that lived here and are owned by Kabuto Akitas!  Our dogs have adapted to our extreme climate, therefore, they never have a full coat and are smaller due to the heat.  Once they retire and are spayed/neutered they put on weight and if they are adopted out to a cooler climate, you will see the increase in coat.  All Kabuto dogs and puppies produced by them are registered with the American Kennel Club where we remain an inspected member in good standing as we have for many years.  For many more pix, including playtime, send Facebook friend request to akitasandshibas@gmail.com

Diesel came to us from the Maricopa Animal Shelter in August of 2004 at the age of 2 or 3 years according to them.  Although during this time, Diesel was extremely popular for his rugged good looks and congenial attitude, the workers were not fond of Akitas and dissuaded people from adopting poor Diesel until we came along the day his papers were ready and snatched him away (our vet told us he was there knowing what suckers we are for Akitas).  Diesel has lived with us ever since!

Malone is about the goofiest dude you will ever meet.  He does more bouncing than he does walking and gets the wiggles when you talk to him.  He loves absolutely everyone he meets whether it be of the human or canine persuasion.  He will bounce right up to other male Akitas who are not sure what to make of him as he tries to plant a kiss right on them; Malone didn't get the memo regarding Akitas being less dog social.  He is quite popular at our local Harley Davidson dealerships as well as at Home Depot where we have even been stopped so that families can take pictures of him with their phones.  He takes literally nothing seriously so it's quite comical to see him in the show ring.  He loves the water and when he is not throwing it on you after an attempt to drink, which we refer to as the hole in his mouth, he is shaking it on you after taking a dip in the puppy pools.  Any other time, you will see him with some sort of stuffed toy hanging from his mouth as if it were a permanent attachment.  Watch Malone bouncing through a show ring near you!

Aisu is our big boistrous forever puppy!  She is 110% percent with everything she does.  She either loves you or she hates you and if she loves you, you can do absolutely anything you want to her and she is thrilled with it.  If she hates you, don't try to touch her because she won't allow it!  She is a loud mouth and will tell me as soon as anyone comes to our house as she is the first to see and hear an intruder and sounds the alarm to put all of the other dogs on alert!

Blaze is our super agile young lady.  She is forever hopping around on her hind legs, can easily jump any fence you put in front of her, and can outrun anything she's raced thus far.  This assists her very active prey drive.  Because she is so fast and can easily jump, she is forever stalking birds and ground squirrels and can catch them without appear to exert effort at all.  She likes everyone she meets, maybe a little too much because she will try to climb right into your lap to give you kisses!  Blaze is just starting her show career so look out for her in a ring near you!

Blaze has never been bred.

Brooklyn is a home bred girl, born and raised by Kabuto Akitas!

She is still filling out so we will wait for her growth to steady a bit before beginning her show career.  She is a super kissy girl, just like her mom.  When I bred Dan to Brook, Brooklyn was exactly what I was hoping for, built like her dad with her mother's brilliant coloring!  Watch out for some amazing things to come from this young lady as she matures!

Glory is a home bred girl, born and raised by Kabuto Akitas!

She is a beast of a dog but doesn't know it.  Glory is a piggy and loves her food.  She would love to be about 115 pounds or more but we try to keep her around 100.  Even when she gets a few extra pounds on her, Glory can still move like a dream.  She is a very sound girl with a beautiful head and gorgeous eyes and the personality to match.  She is as sweet as they come but don't get her too excited - she will get the zoomies.  Glory is not a showoff and doesn't enjoy being in the ring so she is shown on a limited basis.

Keeper is a home bred girl, born and raised by Kabuto Akitas!

She was absolutely gorgeous as a puppy with a beautiful head, awesome coat, and built beautifully.  Her muscle tone is fabulous and she is super agile.  She definitely got the best of both of her parents but has an even better personality.  Keeper is an Akita who doesn't know it!  She gets along with absolutely an dog she meets!  She is going through an awkward stage now but as soon as she fills it out she will back to hitting the show ring!

Kiku is a shy girl but wants she warms up to you, she wants to sit in your lap and cuddle.  She is a short stout girl!  She's a great mom and since she likes dogs better than people we have not shown her but she shines caring for her pups!

Yoshi is a goofy happy girl and the most gentle Akita that I have had the pleasure of knowing but you wouldn't know it if she thinks she has to defend her mom!  She lets out a vigorous set of barks when a new person comes in my home but then her sweet side comes out and she can't hold her self back from passing out kisses to intruders :-)  Soon after, she sneaks her way (literally) into our company's lap whether they are prepared or not!  Yoshi's ear is torn so we don't plan to show her but we think her goofy looks add character!  Yoshi is awaiting her forever mom, our friend Barbara, to be able to adopt her, stay tuned...
