I have 2 Akitas one 5years old (Kuma) and the other 2 years (Kiora). I've taught them both myself my oldest knowing sit, sit in motion, down, down in motion, heel and let's go. My puppy currently knows sit, stay (kind of), down, and we are currently working on leash manners. I'm avaible anytime throughout the week except for wednesdays evenings. If your puppy or dog needs to learn any basic commands or just needs reinforcement I'd be willing to help and would be glad to talk about it. I also do tick checks after walks because as always Lyme disease is a scary thing (my dog Kuma had it). I bathe and groom my dogs myself and also give them their medications should they need any.
