2009

Its been a few years since updating this blog so I intend to keep it up to date as we have a new web site at http://www.nosferatuakitas.co.uk . We had seventeen Akita puppies born on Christmas day Minnie (Nosferatu Thundercat) had 8 and Nellie Kim (Nosferatu Nellie Kim) had 9. All are doing well

THE 2006 SHOW SEASON

Its the start of the 2006 show season and Manchester was our first show in January. Carol Bevis was our judge. Tiger (Nosferatu Toast of New York) won Puppy Dog and went on to be best Puppy Dog. Sophie won Puppy bitch. This was the last time in puppy for them both so I suppose we had a decent day out.

We are into the last few shows of the year now, and Midland Counties was our next show on the 28th October 2005 at Stafford Showground. We only took Sophie. What a great day we had and a big thanks to breed specialist Liz Dunhill for giving Sophie the Bitch Challenge Certificate (her first), Best Bitch and Best Puppy in Breed. She went on to win third in the Pro Plan Puppy Bitch Stakes in a class of over 50 exhibits. We believe that this makes Sophie the Top Winning Akita Puppy of 2005. Thanks to everyone for their applause and congratulations on the day.

Around the Championship Shows

The Akita Association specialty Championship Show was our next show, Tiger won Minor Puppy Dog and Sophie was Best Puppy Bitch and Reserve Best Puppy in Show. The next General Championship Show was Driffield on 16.10.05. An early start of 9am and we certainly all knew that Autumn had arrived - it was so cold. The Judge for the day was Gill Hadliegh who hasn't been active in the Akita breed since early days. Sophie won minor Puppy Bitch and Best Puppy Bitch. We only took Sophie, Tigers put on to much weight so he's on a diet for his next show, Minnie and Skippy are trying to grow a coat and will return to the ring soon.

Around The Akita Shows

Our next Show was Darlington Championship Show on the 19th September. Again it was a new venue at Newby Hall, a much better venue than previously, and was one hour nearer home. We had a weekend in a million, Sophie won Minor puppy bitch and Tiger won Minor puppy dog. Sophie went on to win Best Puppy in Breed, Best Puppy in the Utility Group and on the final day BEST PUPPY IN SHOW. A big thanks to both Top all round Judges, Ellis Hume and Andrew Brace for giving Sophie this TOP UK AWARD

Around The Akita Shows

To Richmond Championship Show on the 9.9.05, a new venue as from last year, it was previously held at Ascot Racecourse. We started out at 0505hrs to avoid traffic on the M25, it took us two hours to arrive at the new venue at Losely Park near Guildford. It was the first time out for Tiger (Nosferatu Toast of New York) he was a little star, he won Minor Puppy Dog Akita and Best Akita Puppy Dog. Sophie won Minor Puppy Bitch, Best Puppy Bitch and Beat her Brother for Best Puppy In Breed. Their Mom Nosferatu Thundercat won Limit Bitch and their dad Champion Redwitch Heaven can Wait (Owned by Jenny & Arlene) won Best Of Breed and Utility Group 4. It was great to see them all together and winning - thanks to the judge, Breed Specialist Marion Sargeant.
