Akimi, you brought a smile to my face this morning as I know you must bring one to the faces of your family constantly during each and every day. You also brought memories of when my Hannah was six months old and lived life with the wild abandon you display. I hope you, like she, maintain your lust for life well into the *mature years*.

Akimi, you are the very essence of what a Dog of the Day should be. Live, laugh, love....truly a girl for all seasons. And you have the right idea about how to keep a family healthy....keep 'em moving.

Thank you Akimi for letting us into your life..your story was just what I needed this morning.
