We researched Akitas for a half year before we got one. We first saw two at an trade show, the two of them would guard the booth for the owners. We talked to them about the dogs and got enough information to want to find out more. They are super smart and need early training and socializing.

We did the same thing when we rescued two huskies from death row. We have a decent size fenced in backyard, but we walked them, along with our beagle mix, to a neighborhood park every day to let them run.

Our Akita was a therapy dog vary unusual for the breed, she loved everyone especially kids. She was good with other dogs too.
