Got my Akita pup
Well he’s here
Took all the advice on board read read and read some more about them and decided to go see some last Saturday. The first “breeder” was nuts. Young bloke, house stunk (maybe it would with that many dogs) and his “mates” were round. They were trying to persuade us to buy the little runt. They left and we stayed for about 45 mins. The lad seemed to know what he was talking about, both parents were there and he let them off the leesh, they were fine with us. We picked out our favourite and said we would be in touch. But as we were driving away something didn’t seem right. Also they had no papers. As we were out and about I checked the internet and found another breeder. We were the first to view, the pups as the add had just been put on line.
All pups 5th gen pedigree, micro chipped and KC registered . We got to the address and it was a big farm, the pups were in a big pen at the back of the farm. The mother was in pen next to them. Straight away you could see the difference from the first litter. The pups were twice the size and a lot more active. They had been fed on fresh chicken and dry food and you could tell the difference. The kids played with all 9 pups in the pen. Then they the let mother out the cage, mother gave a couple of barks but then calmed down and we all stroked her. Spoke with the owners for over an hour, no hard sell etc and I said I would call them if we were interested. Hey showed us the papers as we left.
Got home about 4pm had a chat with the missus and the kids then made the call at 7pm. She said they were busy all day Sunday but could drop him off tonight as they were dropping pigeons (proper country folk) off for a race. So he turned up at 11pm on the Saturday night. He’s called zack and the whole family love him. He’s a bit dopey but is fairly well trained already, no poops in the house and 9 times out of 10 pees on his mat or outside.
I would add a pic but i dont think my account allows

Er....... looks like you need a 4th. 
Nothing showing.
Repost the [IMG] text string without those quote marks (I used them to emphasise the code).
Even so it still should have worked (you would've just had quote marks at the top and bottom of the pic).
