JAPANESE AKITA INU

The Akita is a large Japanese breed of dog that most probably originated in the Akita Prefecture of Japan, from where it gets its name. The Akita first appeared in Japan during the 16th century and they were originally used for hunting and dog fighting. The Japanese used these dogs for various hunting activities and to hunt several different kinds of animals.
The dogs were often used to hunt bear, deer and wild boar. Both males and females were paired together as work partners.















Today, the Akita can be found in various parts of the world and is now mainly used for security. They also make wonderful pets.The Japanese are very proud of these dogs and they respect them a great deal. The Akita is a symbol of good health and wealth. There is even a monument in Japan that commemorates this breed.
Helen Keller was the first to bring an Akita to the United States in 1936.The Akita Shepherd is a German hybrid of the German Shepherd and the Akita Inu.
The best way to determine the temperament of these dogs is to look up the different breeds in the dog’s history and determine the different characteristics from the different breeds.
