Good Tuesday Morning!
So today's trivia comes by way of The National Dog Show which aired on Thanksgiving Day. I love watching the dog show and seeing all of the fabulous breeds. There are some truly gorgeous dogs out there.
Question: Who introduced the first Akita to America in 1937?
Answer: Helen Keller
Pretty cool, huh.
Have a great day!
Serena, I didn't know Helen Keller introduced Akitas. They're one of my fave breeds. And, I featured two of them in STALLION OF ASH AND FLAME. They were/are Seneca's beloved pets.
ReplyDeleteI know, wasn't that something, Savanna. With everything that's known about Helen Keller, I can honestly say that was something I'd never heard before. :)
ReplyDeleteCool that they are featured in your story! Akita's are very beautiful dogs...
One thing that appeals to me about them are their adorable bear-like faces.
