Akita’s are a powerful, brave and noble working breed that originated in Japan and was introduced in the United States in 1937.  Today this versatile breed is as at home in the show ring as it is performing therapy work or serving as a devoted companion.

At Avant-Garde Kennels we strive to continuously improve the overall quality and temperament of our Akitas by carefully planning each breeding and by providing an abundance of care and attention to each and every puppy.
