We lost Rumor entirely too soon to cancer. You always hear people talk about their once in a lifetime dog? Well Rumor truly was! His temperament was second to none. He was the epitamy of a showman. He has produced 15 Champions to date. His color of red was so gorgeous it was hard to describe. A luscious Irish Setter mahogany. He has stamped his type on the Akita World.

 

Rumor, also an International Champion is a grandson of Pride, the tradition continues. Bred by Steve Haugen and Jennifer Grande of Stejen Akitas. He is a breeder's dream come true with his lovely type, conformation, and movement, and a temperament made for loving. He is a ROM (Register Of Merit) producer having 13 Champion kids so far and several more Pointed and Major Pointed kids.We thank all of the breeders who believed in us enough to include Rumor in their breeding programs. He is OFA Good, normal elbows and patellas and Thyroid, CERF.
