Well done and good luck - absolute stunning dog
My first Jack Russell "Sherri" was from the rescue home ran by the blind lady in Tranmere many years ago - "Sherri" was with my wife and I for 16 plus years. Our present dog "Ruffles" was from a rescue home in Manchester at the age of 8 weeks! he is on the "Pets Page"
Can't understand how people can do it.
How about a doggie get together sometime?

My daughter & i have six akitas at home, with two mini dachshunds and one australian shepherd. We have owned akitas now for 23years, we show and both judge at championship level.
Starakita, thats great what you`ve done for Misty aka Wanda, so pleased she has found a great home with you. I was reading this thread out to my daughter and she said she had been told about the akita in the kennels, but i had no idea she was there.
Anyway glad its all worked out for her, ours are daft as brushes lol, especially the big red/white male we have called Bentley, my daughter was trying to clean his ears earlier on and he was rolling on his back using his front paws to cover his ears so she couldnt get to them. She was laughing to much to carry on haha, anyway take care xx
