The phot of Hachiko that I referred to had the build and stature of the amirian breed but the light coloring of the Akita Inu. Also, the fact that the japanese wouldnt have liked the idea the the americans liked "their"dog, was enough for the japanese breeders to change the standard of the Akita to what we have today. Either way, Both standards are an amazing dog. I love my Akita like nothing else, very special.

It has been said the the "american" akita standard was actually considered to be a closer link to the original japanese Akita than that of today. The American serviceman took a liking to the breed whist they occupied Japan and hence took them home with them. There is also a Photo of Hachiko that I saw recently that shows to have more of the build of the "american"standard.

No they are diferent dogs... American ones have German Shepherd and a few other dogs mix. Also, american ones are bigger, bulkier than their japanese cousins. Im almost sure that they come in several colors, while the Akita Inu (jap) has only 4 variations of colors... They ARE different indeed. Similar, but different nontheless.

@JasonB747 Thank you! i live in DC, and ppl here think all akitas are Japanese akitas and i tell them that, that is wrong.
there's a diffference between american and japanese
I love your akita-inu! I think they are much more beautiful than the american breed.

I think the Japanese Akita is the best.
I can not understand why Americans had to create their Akita...
The original has the charm of a race that has existed for more than a thousand-years, the american akita loses this appeal.
