Welcome
to modelvill akitas
We are a small Kennel
situated on the outskirts of a beautiful village in Northern Ireland.
Our kennel to date has made up nine Champions and three International
Beaute Champions.
This was all done with
the help of our son who handles all our dogs and makes this all
possible.
The Akita is a
powerfully built dog originally developed in Japan to hunt bears.
In July 1931, the government of Japan designated the Akita breed as
a national monument and have listed it as one of Japan's national
treasures.
Even today In
Japan they are still affectionately regarded as loyal companions
and pets, protectors of the home and a symbol of good health. They
are regarded to be an
excellent police dog and guard dog.
When a child
is born, the proud family will usually receive a small statue of
an Akita signifying health, happiness and a long life. If a person
is ill, their friends will send a small statue of an Akita as a
Get-Well soon gift.
