Cruiser is on loan to us through the graciousness of Sara Gersbach from Toshimi Akitas of Seneca, Illinois. I first saw Cruiser during my first visit to Toshimi Akitas. I was very impressed with him then. It took me a couple of year to convince Sara to let me borrow him for a few breedings.

Cruiser sports an impressive pedigree of old -school bloodlines. His bloodlines include a heavy concentration of Toshimi, which goes back to Goshen, along with a Nan Chao blood , which is near extinct. Physically, Cruiser is a very impressive and intimidating dog. He has some of the largest bone structure that I have seen. He ears are very small and correct. His top is very flat and strong. Temperament wise, Cruiser is a serious and courageous dog, whose first instinct is to protect. He decides, in his own time, when a stranger is to be trusted.

Based on the results from Cruiser's first breeding, he tends to produce some solid white pups. This is due to three solid white dogs in his four generation pedigree. Those dogs are Goshens Maiden Voyage and Ch Okurimono No O'Yuki.

Of the 30 dogs listed on Cruiser's four generation pedigree:

16 (50%) are champions

Several Register of Merit (ROM) recipients for having demonstrated genetic excellence by producing a minimum of 10 champion offspring, if a male and a minimum 5 champion of offspring, if a female.

Heavy concentration of old, nearly extinct bloodlines, including Nan Chao, Goshen and Toshimi.
