My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Akira- a charming lady who is ready to be your loyal companion through it all! Volunteers say Akira is polite and easy to walk. She also participates in playgroup where she`s frequently the `responsible adult`- welcoming everyone in but not getting involved in any wild parties in the yard. She has too much class for all that (also she doesn`t think running all the way to the other end of the yard just to run right back is a great use of her energy). This grande dame is ready to swan her way into your home like it`s the London Season and she`s the start of her own Bridgerton series. She`s got class, grace, and no time for nonsense (unless it`s her nonsense and comes with some snacks).
