Akita puppy swimming through the air

Whoosh whoosh whoosh go the tiny fuzzy paws.

Li'l guy is an Akita, I presume -- a large dog breed dog that originates from Japan's northern mountainous regions.
There are two separate varieties of Akita: a Japanese strain, commonly called 'Akita Inu', or 'Japanese Akita'; and an American strain, known as the 'Akita' or 'American Akita'.
