Baron is more than I could have ever asked for in an Akita.  When Baron’s breeder suggested we purchase him as a “show” dog, we had no idea what that meant or what it involved.  Now I am hooked.

I trained Baron in conformation until he was 2 years old.  He seemed to enjoy the show ring; however, he began having stomach problems and after tests were done, it was found that he had allergies and a low thyroid.  We decided that he would not be bred and Baron is now neutered.

He is not shown in conformation; however, he has obtained his Companion Dog (CD) Title, his Rally Excellent (RE) Title (with a few legs towards his RAE title), passed the Therapy Dog International Inc (TDI) evaluation, passed the American Temperment Test Society Inc (ATTS) evaluation with an "above average" score, and passed the Canine Good Citizen (CGC) test.  We are starting to train in Agility as I promised Baron if he obtained his CD, we would try Agility.  Baron has  received the Versatile Akita Certificate (VA) through the Akita Club of America by accumulating the required number of points from his obedience, temperment, rally, and therapy endeavors.  Baron recently finished his Beginner Novice (BN) title.

Baron visits Meridian Arms Nursing Home on Saturdays when we do not have shows.  The residents look forward to seeing Baron each week and even ask when he will be back.  He is very gentle with the residents and seems to know which ones are leary of him and his size & he just sits or stands for them to approach him.

Baron is my first "performance" dog and I thank him every day for everything we have accomplished thus far.
