Meet the breeder
I'm Frederick M., the breeder behind Akasha Wind located in Indiana. We proudly call ourselves preservation breeders and maintain the highest expectations for ourselves as such. Our dogs and puppies are excellent representations of their breed, health tested (OFA and genetic), and loved. Quality temperament, structure, socialization, and health are the principal components of our success as reputable breeders. We strongly believe in matching each puppy to each approved family to ensure the best fit.
Q. & A. with Frederick
Why did you start breeding?
I don't breed often. A breeding is only done to continue preserving my chosen breeds and allow approved families the opportunity to own a correct example of their chosen breed.What makes your program special?
We work with original overseas bloodlines in order to maintain the cherished and defining characteristics of our breeds. We will never compromise the quality of the dogs we produce through poor, questionable, or unethical breeding practices. Our primary goal is breed preservation.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
