I am Tojo, the son of the world famous International Champion "Faruk Vom Acimov".
I come from an international line of champions.
I'm a well trained and socialized Rottweiler and am a reliable, alert and a loving companion.
I live in our house and am not kenneled, leashed or muzzled at all.

My first day
The first thing I remember – the stench at the Mumbai airport. It was as if all the other rotty’s had shat on the Tar-Mac in honor to welcome me.
I was around 7 weeks and flew to Mumbai in Air India. Regrettably the 9 hour journey had drained me completely. I was hungry, thirsty, cramping and sir sick. My master picked me up at the airport and took me home. The ride home was quite exciting as I was on my master’s lap sucking on one of his thumbs and steering the wheel myself (sometimes). It was roughly 3 in the morning by the time I arrived at my new dwelling.
I was greeted by my new family - my master’s mom, dad and Kelly the Labrador. I was immediately given water and some baby (human) food to appease my hunger. Just for the record it tasted awful.
I think I had my bedding next to my master and slept immediately.
Writing about me can be a complex and stressful experience. Who am I? It's a question I must confront every time I'm asked to talk or write about myself. I know I don't know and it scares me. A few more years of exposure to life might offer some answers or at least that's what I tell myself. For now though, all I believe is that I'm highly susceptible to colds and everything happens for the best. I am striving for the “moment” in my life when I acquire the talent and the resources to contribute positively towards society.
