Tillman, the skateboarding Bulldog!



Here's a bunch of cool videos of Tillman, the skateboarding Bulldog (he also snowboards and surfs, too! Wow!): www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtRaz1cO-Ls

You can read more about Tillman, see his pictures and find out what he's doing at his website: www.gotillman.com



Tillman also has a fellow skateboarding buddy named Tyson (www.skateboardingbulldog.com).

Tillman and Tyson have been skating for a while now, so this might be old news to some, but it's still nice to read stories and see fellow dogs manipulating their humans into allowing them to do amazing things.

I personally prefer lounging by the pool and enjoying the sunshine or taking a nap in my comfy bed...

Coming soon - Yoshi's Adventures!



Good Morning!

This is my foster brother, Yoshi! Isn't he handsome?



Before he came to stay with me at the TikiHut, Yoshi wasn't so happy as he ended up in jail because his previous owners tied him to the fence at the animal shelter and just left him there.

He is now living in a wonderful home with his sister, Sheba and his terrific Mom, Colleen. Yoshi has been getting into lots of little adventures with the public (Mr. Social loves meeting people and children!) so his Mom thought it might be neat to share some of the stories to let people know how nice it can be to share a life with an Akita (or two).

Please check back with us as we continue to add more stories about Yoshi and other wonderful Akitas like him.

Have a great day!

Buying Stuff


Here's an educational and fun link from our friends at Get Rich Slowly that reflects what a many of us are doing these days and what a lot of us should have been doing. . .

Don't Buy Stuff

Makes a lot of sense to me and I'm just a dog!

I'm Back!


Sorry, it's been a while since my last update. I've been really busy!
I hope to post more frequently now that I have a bit more free time.

You can also visit the TARA website to see what else we're doing and the new guests staying at the TikiHut.
