But be careful when you keep Japanese dog(Akita-inu, Shiba-inu, Kai-ken, Hokkaidou-inu, Shikoku-ken, Kishuu-inu), they are tend to need your proper upbringing.
Japanese dog loyal to its owner, but not always hospitable to others from other place.
It is said that Japanese dog is good for watch dog....but the person who to decide is you.
Please take care properly for dogs. Thank you for reading my poor English sentence:(
@justanotherfan6hd the only real difference between the american akita and the akita inu is that the american one is bigger, for the rest they are mostly the same
@deathscorpion89 The American isnt bigger, its usually stockier but they grow to the same height. There is also a distinct difference in their face. The inu is much more oriental 'Japanese looking' around the eyes. Americans also usually have a black mask which isn't allowed with the inu. I have both types so I really see a big difference in them. The American was bred with mastiffs and other large dogs hence the black mask and less oriental features, and also tend to have a broader muzzle.
hi do you love akitas and have facebook ? search and join the best akita group now ! its called ... Akita World. join akita world on facebook and add all your akita pix :)
@Flytasha that and becuase i love the stubbornness, and their amazing personanlites. trust me. there are many breed of dogs out there why would and why wouldn't i pick a siberian.I know whats right for me
I really hope you're sure. Huskies need a tremendous amount of exercise, they're are pack-animals (one husky is not enough, you should get another dog for a friend for the husky) and they're very loud, they don't bark much but howl instead quite a lot. But if you are aware about all of it, then please do get a husky. Two huskies, actually. If not two huskies, a husky and a friend for him. The friend has to be a pack-dog too, though.
I love akitas, and I love the story of hachiko, but these are NOT a breed for inexperienced owners, and I'm afraid that the movie will cause a boom in irresponsible akita owners. these dogs can be very aggressive if not properly socialized as pups, and they've already gotten a bad reputation in the US. the last thing that responsible akita owners need if for some moron to get bit and have this wonderful breed get the same unfair treatment that pitbulls receive.
@Aholesandwich These are akita inu. American akitas do have problems with aggression but its much rarer in the akita inu. Mostly because the american type were bred with dogs like the Tosa and Mastiff to make them bigger and better fighting dogs. I have both types and they are very different types dogs. The akita inu is the pure Japanese type, hence the slanty eyes.
These are beautiful dogs. I always wanted one but I have great Pyrenees that my dad bought for me and I love him. Great Pyrenees are beautiful too, maybe I'll get a Akita later on so my great Pyrenees can have a playmate. :3
They look cute, but they are on of the hardest dogs to train and grow up, If you don't be the master over them, they are the master over you. Because of the movie Hachiko lots of people think AAAW CUTE, but it's a very hard trainable breed. You need to have expierence ;)

...no but the royals and the temple had them they garded the temple-and the kids that where there-...i dont think there compatible for ninja use...but there you go
@nomellocreampig Hachi is a movie about a Akita pup who got lost at a train sation and a guy took him in. Hachi would wait for him to get back from College since he was a professor and one day Hachiko's master died at school while teaching and hachi waited for 10 years to see him come back and Hachi died 10 years later waiting for his master to return to him. In japan there is a Statue of him on honoring his loyalty
@nomellocreampig Your'e face. Just kidding, hachiko is an akita who's master died, and he waits at the shibuyusha, or something train station in japan, for 9 more years after his master died. Thats a really great movie. That shows how dogs can be so loyal...
On February 28, 1974 the AKC registry was closed to further showing of imported Akita dogs. On April 13, 1992, the AKC registry recognized the Japan Kennel Club (JKC) registry and, therefore, began to allow imported Akita dogs from Japan to be shown at the AKC shows.
Mutsuo Okada states that he now sees four types of Akita dogs outside of Japan today (2000). 1. The Kongo line that has been preserved. 2. Red and red pintos with the black mask that went to the United States soon after the Kongo line. 3. Black without the clear brindle coat that went to the United States much later. 4. Akita dogs of the type being shown in Japan today.
Many Akita dogs began to arrive in the United States after World War Two, especially during the 1950s. These dogs were mainly of the inbred Kongo-go type, which was popular in Japan at that time.
It was Katsusuke Ishihara of Akikyo and Hyoemon Kyono of Nippo and Akikyo, who saw the possibilities in Goromaru-go and used their influence to direct the breeding programs toward producing the Japanese type of Akita dog. Although Goromaru-go had his faults, his tight body, skin and lips were recognized as desirable features of the Japanese dog.
Goromaru-go was not a winner in the show ring, but produced outstanding Akita dogs of the Japanese type when bred to certain bitches of the Taihei and Nikkei lines from Southern Akita.
Dogs of the Ichinoseki line, represented by the Goromaru and Tamakuno lines, began to replace dogs of the Dewa line. However, according to Mutsuo Okada, some of the well known Akita dogs of recent times such as Tetsuyuki and Kumomaru are said to have the Kongo line in their background.
The Dewa line, represented by the Kongo line, soon went into a decline, when most of the Japanese dog breeders began to feel that they were unable to produce Akita dogs that were representative of the Japanese dog breed. Faults of the Kongo line were the loose skin around the neck, loose lips and corpulent appearance, these features were unlike those of Japanese dogs.
The Dewa line reached its peak of popularity with the coming of Kongo-go from the Heirakudo Kennel of Eikichi Hiraizumi of Odate. For a time it was said, "Kongokei ni arazunba Akitainu ni arazu ("If not from the Kongo line, 'tis not an Akita dog." Kongo- go was purchased at the age of eight months by Heihachi Hashimoto of Tokyo, a dog dealer and dog handler. He advertised Kongo-go as the "Dog of National Treasure Kongo-go".
According to Mutsuo Okada, Ichinosekitora can be traced back to the so-called "Shin" ("New") Akita fighting dog called "Gamata", which was a product of crossbreeding Akita fighting dogs with Tosa fighting dogs.
Two main bloodlines of Akita dog emerged soon after World War Two. They were the Dewa and Ichinoseki lines. The Dewa line came from Dewa-go, a dog from the kennel of Yozaburo Ito named the Akidate-en. (46) The Ichinoseki line goes back to Ichinosekitora-go that was owned by the wealthy Kuniro Ichinoseki
Very few Akita dogs survived World War Two due to food shortages and demands for their furs by the Japanese military. (44) The American Army of Occupation and civilian personnel began to notice these large Akita dogs, and were impressed. Demands for the Akita dog grew, and this is said to have contributed much toward revival of the Akita dog
According to Hiraizumi Ryonosuke and others, the goal of informed Japanese dog breeders is to increase the size of the Akita dog, while trying to retain the Japanese dog type
Hirokichi Saito stated in 1953 that he believed that the Akita is a "non-fighting watch dog" created out of outcrossing medium Japanese dogs to imported western dogs and Tosa fighting dogs. This dog is then to be restored toward the Japanese dog type. (21)
Hyoemon Kyono and Katsusuke Ishihara, based on their research, believed that the original pure type of Akita dog was probably the size of the "Matagi (Hunting)" dogs that rarely exceeded 1 shaku 9 sun (approximately 58 cm, 22.6 inches) in height that lived in the mountain villages of Akita and Iwate
The first survey team that went to Odate to study the Akita dog in 1920 was headed by Dr. Shozaburo Watase. He was very disappointed when he saw the great lack of uniformity in the Akita dogs there.
Thus, he did not designate any Akita dogs that he saw at that time.

Red and red pintos with the black mask that went to the United States soon after the Kongo line. 3. Black without the clear brindle coat that went to the United States much later. 4. Akita dogs of the type being shown in Japan today.

Many Akita dogs began to arrive in the United States after World War Two, especially during the 1950s. These dogs were mainly of the inbred Kongo-go type, which was popular in Japan at that time.

It was Katsusuke Ishihara of Akikyo and Hyoemon Kyono of Nippo and Akikyo, who saw the possibilities in Goromaru-go and used their influence to direct the breeding programs toward producing the Japanese type of Akita dog. Although Goromaru-go had his faults, his tight body, skin and lips were recognized as desirable features of the Japanese dog.

Goromaru-go was not a winner in the show ring, but produced outstanding Akita dogs of the Japanese type when bred to certain bitches of the Taihei and Nikkei lines from Southern Akita.

Dogs of the Ichinoseki line, represented by the Goromaru and Tamakuno lines, began to replace dogs of the Dewa line. However, according to Mutsuo Okada, some of the well known Akita dogs of recent times such as Tetsuyuki and Kumomaru are said to have the Kongo line in their background.

The Dewa line, represented by the Kongo line, soon went into a decline, when most of the Japanese dog breeders began to feel that they were unable to produce Akita dogs that were representative of the Japanese dog breed. Faults of the Kongo line were the loose skin around the neck, loose lips and corpulent appearance, these features were unlike those of Japanese dogs.

The Dewa line reached its peak of popularity with the coming of Kongo-go from the Heirakudo Kennel of Eikichi Hiraizumi of Odate. For a time it was said, "Kongokei ni arazunba Akitainu ni arazu ("If not from the Kongo line, 'tis not an Akita dog." Kongo- go was purchased at the age of eight months by Heihachi Hashimoto of Tokyo, a dog dealer and dog handler. He advertised Kongo-go as the "Dog of National Treasure Kongo-go".

According to Mutsuo Okada, Ichinosekitora can be traced back to the so-called "Shin" ("New") Akita fighting dog called "Gamata", which was a product of crossbreeding Akita fighting dogs with Tosa fighting dogs.

Two main bloodlines of Akita dog emerged soon after World War Two. They were the Dewa and Ichinoseki lines. The Dewa line came from Dewa-go, a dog from the kennel of Yozaburo Ito named the Akidate-en. (46) The Ichinoseki line goes back to Ichinosekitora-go that was owned by the wealthy Kuniro Ichinoseki

Very few Akita dogs survived World War Two due to food shortages and demands for their furs by the Japanese military. (44) The American Army of Occupation and civilian personnel began to notice these large Akita dogs, and were impressed. Demands for the Akita dog grew, and this is said to have contributed much toward revival of the Akita dog

According to Hiraizumi Ryonosuke and others, the goal of informed Japanese dog breeders is to increase the size of the Akita dog, while trying to retain the Japanese dog type

Hirokichi Saito stated in 1953 that he believed that the Akita is a "non-fighting watch dog" created out of outcrossing medium Japanese dogs to imported western dogs and Tosa fighting dogs. This dog is then to be restored toward the Japanese dog type. (21)
According to Hiraizumi Ryonosuke

Hyoemon Kyono and Katsusuke Ishihara, based on their research, believed that the original pure type of Akita dog was probably the size of the "Matagi (Hunting)" dogs that rarely exceeded 1 shaku 9 sun (approximately 58 cm, 22.6 inches) in height that lived in the mountain villages of Akita and Iwate

The first survey team that went to Odate to study the Akita dog in 1920 was headed by Dr. Shozaburo Watase. He was very disappointed when he saw the great lack of uniformity in the Akita dogs there.
Thus, he did not designate any Akita dogs that he saw at that time.
