You are one of the only sites that mentions the "dog fighting" lineage of these beautiful dogs. As a Akita enthusiast you must know and acknowledge the history of the dog and not sugar coat facts and hide them . I appreciate your information, thanks for sharing.

I love my Akita. He's the love of my life. He's protective, loving, and beautiful and he's a mama's boy 💙

My partner and I do a bit of traveling and he is great. For a 13 year old, 135 pound Akita , he's the friendliest thing. A big snuggle bunny.

I see Hiro in the video! So nice. Thanks for including her in your awesome KZread video 😊

Ours are nearing the end of their lives. Our male is 12 and our female is 11. The male spent most of his life at about 135 lbs and the female at about 105. Both have lived in the house throughout the time we’ve had them. They’ve lived healthy lives other than one ACL tear 6 years ago in the male. They’ve been incredible around other people and our kids that were born 7 and 3 years ago. However, our male has been aggressive toward other male dogs in the past and had to be pulled away and both the male and the female have killed several small woodland creatures, including birds somehow. All in all, they’ve been amazing, loyal, and friendly dogs their entire lives. If it weren’t for the last 12 years of constant double exorbitant shedding, we would be planning to get Akitas again when these two pass away.

My Akita has been extremely well socialized. Ever since he was 8 weeks old he goes most places with us. My wife also takes him to work everyday and loves everyone and just goes office to office to visit and lounge around all day along with meeting different people who come in the office.

Badass dogs. Can be Mistaken for a husky or malamute if you aren’t familiar with all of them…

Let's hear it for all the original Akita owners who let us use their images/clips in the video. Check out more of their content on their respective Instagram profiles. What do you like the most about American Akitas? Let us know in the comments below!

Akita's are so intelligent that my dog used to get out of my garden with in 4 seconds of me not looking with a fense all the way round. To this day i didnt know how he escaped all the time

Agree mostly... Nice video! I'm 2nd rescue 2 plus years now on male 120#, reactive type. He's watchful of my 10 acres in mountains 9,000' snow 7 months a year. 300" on average snow he loves. Best watch dog, if a bark something is up for me to check out, 10 days ago fenced yard a bark, I'm inside... It's a 800# moose 30' away.

American Akita back in the day use to have that tight curled tail. I love these pups, but again hard to get and find.

inding a unicorn for me when finally found my big beautiful American akita

Mistake on the bathing. They should be bathed as little as possible and only when necessary. Bathing too often will ruin their coat.

I think that generally true for all dogs.. all animals in general…. water only bath is different though. That mimics nature.

My Akita lived to be 16 years old!

My Marcel died in my hands, he was 18. Akitas are not for everybody, they need big spaces to run, they're enormously powerful, they'll fight to death to protect you, males Akitas must not be close to any other big male dogs, small dogs, they just ignore them. Other than having a 100 acres farm, they shed a lot, they eat a lot, and they love and protect you with their lives.

My Akita is a couch potato. With enough daily walks, they do not require a huge space at all. Maybe it's subjective, but this one is like that. He walks for 2 hours a day and he is quiet at home, usually in his favorite position with a good view of the entrance.

🤩👌😃👍😍

Among Korean native dogs, the Pungsan dog, like the Jindo dog, follows only one owner. This dog is a breed that can hunt tigers in packs, and is extremely loyal, risking its own life when protecting its owner. Korean native dogs have high wolf genes

The Dogs of Our Ancestors On eBay Beautiful, healthy,i intelligent. Oldest dogs, oder fheen cities.

Few misleading things in this vid. They DON'T cast a lot and they are fine with just a little exercise.

I had a white Akita what looked like a American Akita so yh you can get white American Akitas

You missed one color in the American Akita ..White Akitas while they may be rare exist ..My 10 year old 143 pound boy Hachi is completely white with no black facemask associated with the American Akita breed

Korean native dogs have a state of trying to protect thin animals, knowing that Jindo dog, Poongsan dog, Bul dog, Gyeongju dog, and Sap-salgi wear only one owner, and the owner wears the dog to receive wolf discharge and last for a long time.

Bul dog× => bulgae dog Bulgae is rare even in Korea, and some people do not know about it. Its characteristic feature is its red nose.
