Kajino P

Been a while since I last posted here. Actually, not sure if I had my girl Aiko Kensha No Hotaru No Hikari (a.k.a. Chihiro) back then. Chihiro is offspring of Birin Go Musashi Aiwa and Sanae Go Shun'you Kensha (http://www.akitapedigree.com/details.php?id=64434). Anyways... below some pics.

Small world! Hey Peter, Irina here. Tsuki sends a big hug to her sis.

Kajino P

Heeey Irina! I kinda ran into the bookmark of NihonKen.org and thought it'd be nice to post something. Chihiro kindly accepts a kiss from her big sis and sends thousands enthusiastically back to her. ^_^

Hey, Peter Marita here! Greetings from Aiko Kensha No Michi Go as well

Kajino P

Whahaha. Hi Marita! Greetings back. LOL

Saki

Chihiro looks so proud on the pics. Gorgeous!

Kajino P

Thanks, Saki. She's my princess. And if my boy Junya lets her, she can be the boss as well... if he lets her...

Spirited away? Love it!

WOW, that's a beautiful name, "Firefly of the Light". Beautiful girl !!

Kajino P

@Zinja: Indeed, her name was indeed inspired by that film's protagonist.

@MapleTwinkie: Actually, that would translate as just firefly light (otherwise it would have been the opposite, being hikari no hotaru)...

Actually, both names were influenced by the works of Studio Ghibli. It is a studio I have a special connection with and interviewed some of the people there in the past... Loooong story. ^_^

Oh, forgot to say how awesome she looks! She does! So proud and dignified

Kajino P

Thanks, Marita! ^_^

MapleTwinkie

oh DOH!! That's totally what I meant to say, i switched them around; Light of the Firefly. Okay, so maybe I wasn't getting A's in japanese school either.... lol !! #-o

What a gorgeous Akita!

Kajino P

@MapleTwinie: LOL. Well... whatever... I came up with both her full pedigree name, as well as her calling name, but mostly I just call her Chi, Chichi, or Chihiro when I am serious.

@Losech: Thaaanks!

And for those interested to know, Chihiro has been purely been raw fed since day one she was born. At her breeder and at my place, no kibbles for her, just raw meaty bones, muscle meat and offal.

I think a raw diet sounds gret. Could anyone provide any guidance how to start/research a good raw diet plan. Your girl is beautiful.

Search raw feeding we have threads dedicated to it

Dragonfly

I feed mine raw too Chihiro is gorgeous and I love her name! Reminds me of Spirited Away, That's one of my favorite movies.
