AVAILABLE PUPPIES

After our Akita babies are born for the next few weeks the mom and babies enjoy their quiet time at our home. They are going through what we call the “baked potato stage”. I make sure everyone is nursing well and I weigh them twice a day to make sure they are plumping up. I also keep close tabs on the mommy to make sure she is eating, drinking and taking her potty breaks, and that she is not losing weight. We take the mom and pups to the vet on day two or three to have the pup’s dew claws removed and to give everyone another wellness check.

A few days later I begin their “puppy exercises”. We follow the Early Neurological Stimulation exercises as documented by Dr. Carmen Battaglia, which we have found makes a remarkable difference in the confidence of our puppies.

I begin weighing them daily after the first week and I check their toe nails and clip them as needed. By this time the pups should have doubled their birth weights. Once their eyes and ears are open I begin introducing some deliberate noises like gentle music, but I also don’t shelter them from everyday more startling noises, like the TV or vacuum cleaner. Also ensure that they are handled and associate with our kids & other critters.

By the time any of our Akita puppies are ready to leave , they have already been Vaccinated, currently dewormed, properly socialized and have had received basic potty training.

They come with a contract that includes a 5 years health guarantee. A personalized manual for raising the puppies is offered, a free crate, name collar, and a piece of their mum’s blanket upon the purchase of an Akita puppy.
