Some thoughts I posted a while ago on who would be best to give the Dog Scroll to. Don't forget to check what people said in response, to get a clearer view of prior hivemind opinion.
I'll argue that our first step for the Dogs (and what should probably have been done to the Toads, as well) is to send a Pangolin courier to their territory and tell them the fact. Make sure that we don't waste months of Summoning training on Hazou only to find out that the Dogs actually hate him for his involvement in the Pangolin-Condor war, or for doing a treason.
I think this should be our Step 1, regardless of who we actually give the Dog Scroll to.
 
Wait a moment.
"I'll bring you back a souvenir ^_^"
Where the hell is our souvenir, Ami? @MMKII! She's following in Ren's footsteps! They're probably colluding! That's the real reason why she returned to Mist: they're plotting how to maximize Hazou's misery from not receiving gifts!

They must be stopped. We own the entire chocolate market now; let's cut their supply until they give us our due.

@eaglejarl @Velorien @OliWhail Timeline update:
All these chapters took place around the same time. Chronologically, Chapter 346 took place during Chapter 344 (as in, started and ended within 344's timeframe), 345 took place directly after 344, and 347 after 345.

I note that this provides us excellent leverage over Shikamaru and Keiko as well.

We just need to subvert the Baker's Union and control the sugar supplies before we can begin Operation Candy Crush.
 
[X] Dog scroll: Hazō

getting Hazō a scroll is a must. Need it for opsec. Summons increase our survivability. Let's us play politics on the 7th path. Starts the second sannin
 
[X] Dog scroll: Akane

Either Asuma is going to have her trained up to be the Super Genin(TM), or she's going to be sent on more risky missions as a chunin. Both ways, being a Summoner is to her benefit. We'll get Hazou a scroll eventually, but I think that giving it to Akane instead of keeping it for ourselves would look better to Asuma, who likes Akane (at least more than us). It also shows any perspective adoptees that not having a bloodline or not being a founding member of Goketsu doesn't keep you from getting the Shinies. Plus, even if it's marginal, the reputation and perception boost to Akane is another step towards helping balance the power dynamic. Plus, this let's us FOOM sooner, which would be nice. Not interacting with the 7th directly immediately seems less of a worry when 3 different members of uplift have scrolls.
 
"Second place: The Konoha Enlightenment Initiative, for the contribution of thirty-seven different jutsu and two original seals." He paused, smiling. "Oh, yes—and also one of the most powerful artifacts in existence: The Condor Summoning Scroll!"
The KEI have access to a (presumably clanless) sealmaster. We should see if we can collaborate with them on some of our more opsec-friendly projects.
 
[X] Dog scroll: Akane

Hazō should already be spending as much XP as possible on FOOM and non-combat stuff like socials. Akane on the other hand will be going out to do missions, so she needs the extra firepower.

For all the reasons @Halberdier pointed out.

Plus the fact that the Dogs might not be liking Hazou very much (see @Inferno Vulpix's post).

(Also, it fits the theme of giving the scrolls to the people with the lowest sense of self-worth. Maybe it'll help her.)

Hazou has never struck me as one who would get along well with the dog clan. It would be amusing but... unneeded.
 
Dudes, Akane isn't going to being able to fulfill the roles required of a dog summoner for the future. She's going to be busy helping Kagome out; that's why she got shadow clone.
