The Akita is considered a national monument in it's native
homeland of Japan where it is revered as a symbol of health, happiness and
longevity. At one time the exclusive property of Japanese nobility, this
breed was used to hunt large game including Wild Boar and Deer. Akitas have
since found their way into the hearts and homes of people world-wide, and
have proven to excel as police dogs, guard dogs, guide dogs, and - most
importantly - family pets. Akitas are extremely intelligent, large,
energetic, very territorial and highly devoted to their owners. Akitas
are loyal family dogs and fearless guardians of the home that excel in
obedience work. These highly intelligent, affectionate dogs make excellent
companions. Their dense, double coat requires regular, thorough brushing,
and these large dogs need plenty of outdoor exercise. Training at an early
age is recommended. |
