Kawakami Akitas

The head of a Bear,

The heart of a Lion,

The agility of a Cat...

The Akita

We purchased our first Akita in 1982, with aspects of a working obedience Akita. Her name was Cato. Cato obtained her Canadian Championship title at 9 months of age and went on the complete her CD (obedience title) at 2 years of age, with scores of 190 out of 200. We then purchased Cato's half brother Cody Bearpaw, who became our foundation dog.

With this as our starting point, we have gone on to produce multi Best in Specialty Show winners, Best in Show, multi Award of Merit, multi Best Puppy in Show, and many group placing Akitas. We long ago lost track of how many champions we have produced, but obtained our Permanent Registered status in 1987. Kawakami Akitas are now noted for their large bear type head, substantial size, correct structure, and outstanding movement.

Companion and show prospect puppies are sold by contract. For more information see upcoming litters page.
