The Akita is a large, powerful dog breed that originated in Japan. They were originally used for hunting and guarding, and are known for their loyalty, intelligence, and courage. Akitas are also one of the best cold-weather dog breeds, with a thick, double coat that provides excellent insulation against the cold.

Note that Akita and Shiba are EXTREMELY loyal, so they only accept ONE OWNER.
Re-adoption rarely succeeds.
So, if you are going to get an Akita or a Shiba, make sure to keep it for the rest of its life. Don't throw it away after a couple of years.

My grandpa lived in the northern mountains of the Tōhoku region in Japan, and he lived as a farmer but would also hunt for food. He had a fiercely intelligent and loyal Akita as his hunting partner, and grandpa made sure that the dog was well socialized so we grandkids can play with him. He was one of the most intelligent dogs I’ve ever seen; he’d be all relaxed and goofy when he was with us kids, but as soon as grandpa would enter his field of sight, all attention was on him like a soldier. They take a lot of training and socializing for them to be cool with people other than their masters, but the result is so rewarding.

My Shiba Inu, Ruu, passed away just over a year ago. She was a beautiful girl. She loved having people play with her face and knock her around. It always looked like she was gonna get hurt but then she'd run right back and nudge them to get them to do it again. I lost her to old age and stomach cancer in 2021. We gave her a beautiful burial in our yard and installed a light over it so she can still shine at night. My other dog Callie was like her big sister and now spends most of her time outside sitting under the light being with her little sister. I will always miss you Ruu, my beautiful baby girl. ❤️

First time Akita owner overview experience here for the ones interested:
(I had two mutts before this one)
- I got her when she was 2 months old, sweet, shy, apprehensive bean
- she is about to be 11 months now
- I walk her since she was 4mo, she is extremely curious about strangers and will look at anyone passing by wishing to sniff them
- Zero sign of agression so far, but she can play *very* rough if the other (person or dog) rises the bar there
- She is gentle with gentle people/dog, if they remain calm, my girl will be calm and soon lose interest
- not interested in being petted by everyone, but will tolerate it
- light eater, only eats what she needs, will stop if she is full and can even skip meals if she ate more the previous day
- needs brushing min 1x week, best 3x
- bath every 3 months has shown to be enough, she smells nothing but fur, not stinky, not dirty, very clean dog (isn't the type to jump into mud)
- very stubborn, if she is done with training she is (but I always push the bar a bit so she knows I'm the leader)
- can get very hyped and lose control when zooming, she is already heavy and strong, so if she jumps on me it hurts, if she does too rough i pin her down, and that was enough to teach her to be gentle with me but rough with my husband
- overall lazy and 2 small walks a day is enough
- likes play but doesn't last long
- will stick around like a cat, doesn't want pets or attention all the time, just company

So far I'm having a great experience and grateful I gave the breed a chance, I got from a official breeder, both her parents had great personality (her mom let me let her and her litter without issue!).
I feel I have a best friend that I can trust and that trusts me, she will look after me and wait for me.
I love my sweet girl.

"they are extremely intelligent"
*shows picture of dog wearing glasses to prove point*
lmaaooo

"But don't let their fluffy appearance fool you. Beneath all that fur is even more fur."

Akita and Shiba are stubborn, playful, ignorant and only loyal to 1 owner if left untrained. It’s not your typical house dog

[DeFo_tHe_REaL_MaRiE]

I got bit by an Akita when I was a kid and I’m not scared of any other dogs but dogs that look like akitas

[ellyelysha]

Fun fact:
Hidesaburo Ueno(Hidesaburo-san) owns an Akita dog.The dog was known to be at the train station whenever he comes home or getting ready to go to work.But, on the tragic day, he died of sudden heart attack and never came back to see his doggo.The good doggo waited for him for years to come in same train station he went to, and died there after years of waiting.Many people were moved by how loyal the doggo is. Then, they made a statue of the doggo in the same train station the late Hidesaburo-san used to go to work and come back home from there.
That doggo, was named Hachiko❤

I miss my Akita, he was such a good boy. Rest easy, Rocky.

Shiba Inu: *i am sleep*
Akita Inu: *circular zoomies*

[Vayikra]

Forgot stubborn, incredibly difficult to train, naturally wary of strangers, extremely same sex aggressive, and typically dog aggressive unless trained from an early age to be dog and stranger tolerant. Not a beginner friendly dog😅

[christopherguillaume]

My family had an Akita, she was one of the best pets to ever live.

[punkrawkgen]

Akitas are not for first time or inexperienced dog owners. While being highly intelligent they are also VERY territorial and don’t bond well with anyone outside of their family. To prevent this it will take HOURS of socializing with an owner that is equally energetic and an owner who is social.
On the other side if you are wanting and extraordinary guard dog, and Akita is the best way to go! Get them as pups introduce them to every living being from day one and keep letting them socialize with them. They will know that they are family and will die trying to protect them.
Akitas are amazing companions but not for the lazy dog owner.

[crystalcooper]

This dog give him a award for being too cute

[sagebear]

They're also guard dogs so they need lots of socialization with people and other dogs from the get-go and do not let up on it. Theyre naturally apprehensive so you have to teach them that not every non-family member is their enemy. Theyre big dogs that can seriously hurt someone innocent in a misguided attempt at protecting you or your property so be sure to be prepared and research before getting one!

[PillowTheGreat]

Aww, the same breed as Hachiko!

(For those wondering Hachiko, or Hachi, was a dog in Japan. When his owner died, not returning from work, he still waited for 10 years until death for his owner to return. His statue stands tall where he waited everyday.)

Oh I’d love to own an Atika dog. I met a couple of them in our neighborhood. They were so friendly, so neighborly. They saw me open my back door, as they were outside laying in their driveway. I didn’t say a peep, when they spotted me, they came right over. When my neighbor whistled for them, they returned home in a flash. It was such an unexpected lovely surprise and a moment I’ll never forget.

[DoggiPup]

Another Akita fact is that they are one of the oldest dog breeds that still lives dating all the way back to 14, 000 BCE
