    Saber is so sweet. He reminds me of an Akita we had in our family, Panda. She was 100lbs, so kind of big for a female, but she had no idea. She was mellow and quiet like Saber. We used to joke that she was like Eeyore. She was very shy. Panda barked about 6x in her 10 years of life and each time scared herself and had us wondering which neighbor got a new dog 😂 She definitely had the Akita intelligence and stubbornness. If she didn't want to do something, she'd sit and not move (common for Akitas). We used to crack up when she would bring a toy to you b/c she would bring it to your face as if you were supposed to use your mouth too 😅 When annoyed at someone or something, she would gently swat it w/ her huge paw. She was such a great dog. Akitas are fantastic but not for novice owners. I would say they should be the only dog unless they were raised together as puppies and w/ very balanced owner(s).

    • @JBOD

      We call it setting anchor. Our 130 lb girl does the same thing. sits, gives you the ears. She happily tells anyone in her sight that they are on her turf. She loves other dogs, and always wants to play. Her play is overwhelming to some dogs we dog sit and they are terrified of her. Others love playing with her. It is amazing how she can adjust to the size of her playmate. She plays with tiny dogs very gently, she plays with big dogs like two heavyweights in an octagon.

      Akitas are so cute they look gorgeous and cuddly like a teddy bear, I love them! 🥰 Their breed originates from Japan and was selectively bred in order to create the perfect bear hunting dog. That is why it is so important to train them and socialize with other dogs/animals early on, so that they are friendly and good with other animals and humans alike. Because if you don't, they can get very dangerous and uncontrollable, not all, but some could tun problematic without any proper care in their younger years. Their hunting instincts could kick in and turn against other dogs and animals, something all responsible owners would want to avoid.

    Ah, an American Akita with the Japanese Akita coloring.
    If his nose was bright pink and his snout a little longer, he'd look exactly like my Callie!
    We lost her a year ago this September.
    She was one of a kind.
    I whistle-trained her so instead of speaking a command like "sit" or "guard", I'd just whistle a certain way and she knew what she had to do.
    My family lost their minds when I showed them all the things she could do.
    Smartest dogs on Earth!

    Exceptional Akita!
    As always, thank you for your educational information. As a former vet tech, educating people is the way to my heart. I have to hope that it reaches through and makes a difference for other fur babies out there.

    I absolutely love your videos! I have trimmed my own little dogs for the last, ohhh, almost 60 years, have picked up tricks from professional groomers, and am happily learning new tips from you! Your approach to dealing with critters you don't know is phenomenal! If I was not so stinking' allergic to shampoos and dander, I would have groomed as a profession. You and your clients make me smile every time I see you, and I thank you for that! Merry Christmas! ❄⛄🎄⛄❄💕💕

    I think he might be a Golden Retriever in an Akita costume. What a friendly fellow!
    Maybe he's just happy he survived his puppyhood and enjoys life as much as he can. Parvo is brutal.

    We lost our Kuma, a Japanese akita, back in 2017. He was a big ol lovebug to those in his pack, and I miss him every day. Rest in peace to all our little bear cubs. 😭
    Edit to add: When you have an akita who has trouble standing, it's best practice to lay them on their side to work on their paws/claws. That way not only are you letting the dog rest, you have more control if they start trying to fight you on it.

      Used to have a rotty who would run into the bathroom to be blow dried when I did my hair. He also loved the grooming dryer and the shop air hose. Best dog ever.

    I thought I could hold it together but started bawling when he started bouncing his leg when the blowdryer started, just like Kuma 😭😭

    lol love that face ... just screams "oh yea, that's the spot.. don't stop" 8:30 😅.. Sad to hear about Kuma, he was a beautiful dog and kindred spirit. Watching him opened my eyes to the breed. They are beautiful dogs and now considering getting one.

    Sabre looks so handsome & what an incredible disposition.
    Was truly saddened to learn of Kuma's death. Loved watching his interactions with his no. one groomer/wingman, Vanessa. I will miss him & am grateful for the videos. His puppies were so beautiful. How is Sumi? Deep condolences to his family/loved ones.

    When I got a lab mix puppy (90's) I took her to that new pet store that let you take your pets inside. The next day, my psycho puppy did nothing but sit on the couch. Called the vet, got in right away. She had Parvo, perhaps from the pet store. Had to take her in to the vet for the next 4-5? days for an IV. She survived, but it was very scary few days.
    ❤Rest in peace Kuma❤
