I have a male akita now almost 4 years old, and prior to that several other breeds for about 30 years. I must say Akita is by far my favorite breed. The only "problem" i have is when he encounters (border) collies (who attacked him when he was a puppy) he loves humans and dogs he knows, but stays by himself if its an unknown adult dog. (He plays and teaches all puppies he meets) It still take him socializing every single day and can notice the difference if he hasn't met any dogs for a few days. He listens and returns really well, but he does love to explore. And he's smart too, he recognizes people and cars for who are my (and in extention, his) friends. Doesn't bark if they come up my driveway. Nor does he bark if people pass the driveway, but as soon as he doesn't know you and you set one foot on the driveway he's up in your face. One thing to remember if your considering an Akita. Most people that don't know you or akita's will approach the akita in a way that they might not like, (often to fast and or to energetic) and he'll tell them that by either barking or showing teeth. So a lot of people will think your dog is agressive, while what he really is doing is guarding his personal space and his owner. And his personal space can be as close as a meter up to 10 meters depending on mood and situation They are beautiful majestic selfconfident dogs, but one things you need to absolutely realize. If you allow him something once, he'll remember that for the rest of his life, and will try to do it again if it pleased him, for you've allowed it once so you will eventually allow it again.... right? It takes months, years or even a life time to unlearn something he liked that you've allowed once. Even if circumstances were extraordinary. Eg. Sick dog/puppy and you kept him in your bedroom to keep watch over him? He'll expect that for the rest of his life his stature has gained enough that he's allowed to sleep in the same room with you. Akita's are lovely dogs, but if your inconcistent in behaviour or things that you allow, you not only have a troublesome dog, but also a miserable dog. Because he doesn't understand why hes not allowed that fun thing anymore.

I have a white female japanese akita. I worked very hard socialising her and have the most loyal lovely dog as a result. I can let her off her lead no problem. She never leaves me. However she does ignore commands if she doesn't want to do something. Unfortunately she does have sebaceous adenitis but we manage her condition well.

Sitting with your back to them is proof that they are open-minded and not at all wary. The first dog my family had was an Akita/magazine mix. My mother's sister's house also had a pure white Akita and a baby Akita. You can only understand how great Akitas are if you live with one. Their fighting spirit, which allows them to fight even with a bear without flinching, and their loyalty, which will stay with their owner for life, are truly amazing. They are not friendly to everyone and have a temperament, so training is essential.

We lost my Japanese Akita in 2023 at 18years 5months she was a brindle female with white paws and a white spot on her chest she was the perfect dog no prey drive our 11 cats were the bosses which she protected from foxes as well as our other 3 dogs she was used as a medical assistance dog as she had to be able to pull a 16 stone man away from certain chemicals and spent time on the children's and old aged wards in the hospital, she had a very long and happy life from when we rescued her when she was 7 years old after the previous owner tried to force breed her and she turned round and neutered the dog and she was sued but her insurance would not cover her, Ebony Bear is missed and our new very very large short haired Giant Alaskan Malamute has some big paws to fill.

It’s like Caesar says, there is no such thing as a bad dog, only bad dog owners. They are definitely not for the first time dog owner. As with any breed you have to do your homework. It’s a commitment. Do you have the time to put in the work ? I rescued a Great Pyrenees. I have friends who would NEVER deal with the shedding. I vacuum twice a day and that’s not enough. I know I could never have an Akita because I am a pushover 😅

I've had 1 experience meeting 2 akitas. I just happened to run into them at a pet store, they were definitely the American variety, but they were both so sweet it was unreal. Beautiful and so sweet. I asked their owner if I could pet them and his girl dog was so cute, I squatted down to pet her and she was really trying to sit in my lap! Those 2 definitely came from a good breeder and went to an amazing family.

One of the most lovely dogs I’ve ever met was a an American Akita dog ( I know that they are pretty much separate breed to the original Japanese breed but still share many of the same characteristics), who was in a rescue Center that I was hoping to volunteer at for dog walking, the absolute size of him! As sweet as pie but I knew about their prey drive & strength so I knew that if he wanted to chase something I would not have had a sing hope in all 7 circles of hell that I could have held on to him 😂😂😂😂. The guys people at the centre actually appreciated my honesty when I told them ( and we both had a laugh 😹), so I donated money & still do to this day & I actually adopted a dog from them several years later ( a border collie so still plenty of work involved 😂😂😂😂). The Akita was actually adopted out several years ago to a loving home ( a person who funnily enough knew the dog through someone at the shelter) & was well cared for & loved ❤

He 8 I bonded almost immediately. My roomie worked nights & I worked days. Shogun would alternate his bed location accordingly. I finally put another bed in my room for him. 😂🤣😂❤️❤️❤️

Thank you, Anneka, I remember your first Akita episode 💖. I adore this breed; they're so intelligent and you simply cannot fail to fall in love with their complexities and beauty. Not the type to leave indoors all day while an owner goes out to work. Sadly, their beauty often attracts the wrong type of owner and it's tragic to see how many are literally abandoned and the Akita shelters full, many are rehomed by overwhelmed owners and go from one home to another or returned to shelters, compounding more behavioural difficulties. It's tragic. Thank you, for doing the Akita proud, and emphasising their needs for potential owners, Anneka. 🙏👌💖

I've only ever met an Akita once in real life. Thankfully, the owner said beforehand that it was quite big, but it was friendly. When he brought it into the room, despite what he said, I sh1t myself. It was all black and it was huge. Very nice friendly dog though and it was a pleasure to spend some time with it.

I have watched this confident affectionate behaviour when greeting people in many Spitz type dogs, and our German Spitz has it too. If possible, he wants to be at face level with anyone he greets, so he climbs on their lap and stares them right in the face with his Spitz smile. These dogs are not naturally subservient, they will obey their people, but they see themselves as basically equal with strangers. That is why it is so important to socialize them very well from an early age.

Akitas are a beautiful breed, for me it's the best i've had my whole life! As for the training sure you can socialize since a very young age but they all have their own character and it's ok as long as you can manage your dog, reduce their stress and give them the best life they could possibly have. My 3 years old male akita is part of the family and every family member, friends or person that knows him, knows he is the sweetest boy. But he can become reactive sometimes on walks, especially with other male dogs. Some breeds in particular trigger him. We learned to read his body language and to use techniques such a the clicker and it works really well! If you are patient enough for them to develop without comparing them to "your usual family dog", they will become the best addition to the family !

just a couple of minutes in and totally recognise this. My rescue Am Akita (5 yr old and skipped dog socialisation) has done really well in learning to let other dogs pass without lunging or other reaction; but even when he has been totally polite a passing dog on a few occasions has yelped as if being attacked.... Recognising that body language from physical build gives that message to other dogs even when my boy is being polite is useful to understand.

Hi Anneka...your Akita videos are really helpful when it comes to choosing this magnificent breed. These dogs are so much ingrained in the Japanese culture, that people who are either sick or having a baby would be given tiny Akita statues symbolizing health and well-being. I've heard the first record of these dogs in the U.S was from the late 1930s when Helen Keller brought two Akitas with her from Japan. Also, when American soldiers came to Japan in World War 2, they were so impressed by this breed that many decided to bring an Akita back home with them after finishing their military tour. By the way, the Akita depicted on a stamp at 1:29 is Tachibana; one of the few dogs to survive the war.

My dad brought home an American Akita when I was 16. We named him Johnny because the guy who gave him to my dad had named him "Juan de Dios". I had no dog training ability/experience, knew nothing about the breed. Other than my heeler, Johnny was the most naturally obedient dog I had. Rarely barked, only went to the bathroom in a certain corner of the backyard, got along with our chickens, understood directions just by pointing or facial gestures, never showed aggression towards people or anyone visiting. All of this he learned with simple stern "no" and spending a lot of time with him. He absolutely did not like with my friend's Rottweiler probably because the rott was already showing aggression. But when we worked on a cherry farm the farmer had a young german shepherd the same age as him and they were best buds during that harvest. All the difficult traits about Akitas I didn't even learn until years later when there was internet to research. But from my experience I would have no clue they were dangerous or could be difficult. My dad who is not even a dog person and kind of just tolerated him at rhe time wanted to get another Akita over the last few years because he said they were so smart and obedient like Johnny.

Helo Anika, nice job! I have had Akitas for 15 years. There is a secret to have some succes with this beauties. "Akitas are very sensible to owners emotions", when they do some wrong, just show you are sad, there is no need to yealing or beating, but, when do good, show you are hapy. By the way: NEVER beat an Akita, it is realy dangerous. 2 rides a day, let him be friend of other people, they behave as your secretary, They realy differenciate, family, friends, others and hostile people. While on the ride, let the dog be a dog, beware, they search others as preys, hunt and try to get other dogs, you should not allaw because other dogs usualy have no chance, they are very fast killers, so hold far from problems. From the gate of our house in, they have accesss to all, what becomes good, they help to take care. They are more than dogs, they are partners. The only breed of dog my actual Akita tolerates are the Shiba inu, maybe because they look like Akita puppies. By by.

秋田犬には特別な思いがあります、学生時代郵便局のバイトして秋田犬に吠えられて敬遠していたがなんとか友達なろうと努力して後でわかったことですが秋田犬は女の子でした、それで秋田犬と友達になりました。

I have an amazing Akita, perfect with dogs and people as all the work at puppyhood was put in. However I don’t think I’ll ever get another one. They are amazing but living with the potential of the damage they could do in an instant is a huge responsibility. It takes a lot of joy away from having a dog unfortunately. 😅

​@@Animal-Watch Not really, I went to a park today and I had four kids and their parents ask to pet her and she loves it! Also had my parents old Yorkie and she's very respectful of her space. It's more the general what if, maybe that worry is what is needed to be responsible with a breed like this? Also in Ireland at least this breed is on a restricted breed list, that's a factor.

Getting a dog based upon appearance is always a mistake. These dogs are very beautiful, though. ❤ The ears and tail definitely give a dominant look for sure. I can imagine the amount of time for grooming would be a a bit daunting,

The Americans tried to kill all the Akita dogs during WW2 due to their fierce loyalty to the Japanese. Thank goodness they didn't succeed.

No, the Japanese needed to eat the dogs to survive so they were outbred with German shepherds to hide these dogs. They valued German shepherds as army dogs

@@Animal-Watch no? My grandfather literally fought in that war and vividly details what the Americans did to the Japanese dogs like it was yesterday. Let me guess, you got your 'facts' from someone who isn't even Japanese, nor took part in the war. Stop listening to Western Propaganda and wake up.

Basically, no dog is naturally "difficult and/or dangerous". Akita's are magnificent dogs but can be pretty formidable, especially when you're dealing with one of the larger versions. The same can be said for other breeds, like, say, the Western European shepherd breeds. Malinois, Dutch Shepherds and German Shepherds can all present challenges if not handled right, while the true giants like mastiffs, Cane Corso, Anatolians or Great Danes etc are only very rarely "difficult". It all hinges on training and environment, and a willingness to put in the time! Don't buy a scarily intelligent breed like a Dutch Shepherd and expect it to behave like a cuddly poodle. It's a horses for courses thing. Know what you are looking for, and be prepared to learn!

Since I adopted my Am Akita I have wondered about outbreeding to create the differences to the Japanese Akita. I was wondering about that happening in US since only limited numbers arrived initially; so really appreciate the history and how the german shepherd and other out breeding before leaving Japan.
