Ah, my mate has a Japanese Akita I'm sure, looks quite similar! It has the biggest head I've ever seen, massive dogs!
Did think they looks familiar, cheers.

Gilly, can you tell me more about your dog? we're thinking of getting one now, what do I need to look out for? how are they at home?

They are a challenging breed. They don't start settling down into adulthood until around 4 years old, so are puppies and adolescents until then. I would definitely get a large cage for the dog to sleep in - some think this is cruel but ours settled down the second he was put in his. Make sure the bottom of it is comfortable for them and drape sheets over the top, make it like a den.
Mine has been a struggle - he is wilful and stubborn. He's also highly intelligent and learns very quickly. It is just a problem sometimes keeping him involved and entertained.
All that said, he's a wonderful companion and I wouldn't swap him for the world.

As Gilly says. We cant stress enough how important a cage is to your dog if you get one. We dont drape sheets over it as he seems fine without. The cats sleep on top of it too so they are all together. Hes only 18 weeks so is not trusted to be out his cage unsupervised....

Thanks, how much did yours set you back Gilly and where from? Struggling to find sellers around here.

I travelled to Scarborough in the end to get the one I wanted. All I did was go look at boxer litters from the paper.

It's great to see some other Akita owners on here! They are amazing dogs, I can't take ours out without being stopped and asked about him.
How old are yours, what breeder did you get yours from, how are they around other dogs & strangers & are yours as bone idle as mine is?
