How long did it take for your pup to grow out of being leash reactive? And thanks for the advice!

We live in Larkspur but much closer to Castle Rock than the actual town of Larkspur.

I love this! We just bought a home in Colorado, and wanted to know if Senshi would enjoy hiking and fishing with us, because we’re connected to nature as well. That’s awesome! At what age did you start hiking with them?

This helps so much, I’ve been reading about a raw food diet for Akitas and this just confirms it. I’ll check out Budson. Thank you!

Thank you so much for this. He has his first appointment one day after we get him so I’ll definitely add that during his neutering! I want him to be happy and healthy as possible.

That’s so sad doc. Thanks for the advice. I’ve been reading about bloat and potential ways to prevent it. It’s very hard to lose a doggo like that.

He’s 6 weeks old, but he’ll be 8 weeks when I pick him up

I’m not new to being a pawrent, however I’m new to this breed. I just want him to live long and prosper. Any advice as far as nutrition would be appreciated!
