The Moment a Family
Meets Their Dog
This is a male puppy by Grand Champion Asa out of Kazia. The family drove to Sussex County to pick him up. What happened when they walked in is exactly why this program exists.
Champion Bloodlines. Every Apexx puppy is the product of full OFA health testing, deliberate pedigree selection, and eight weeks of structured early development before any family takes one home.
Sussex County, New Jersey. Dad was fighting back tears. Their daughter was beside herself. Moments like this one have been happening at Apexx Akitas since 2003 — and they never get old.
What to Include
in Your Message
If you are inquiring about a puppy, sharing a few details upfront makes the first conversation more useful for both of us. None of this is required — but it helps.
If you are ready to begin the process formally, the puppy application is the best starting point. It takes approximately ten minutes and gives us everything needed to have a productive first conversation.
