I own an Akita / Pitbull mix. I couldn't hope for a more faithful, loving, or loyal dog. I did a lot of reading about Akitas and was amazed at how on the mark the books / articles were ... it was if they were describing my dog. In one of the books, I read that in Japan, mothers would often use their Akitas to babysit their children. At first, I thought that was kind of strange ... but now I use ours to safeguard my elderly mom. As loving as our dog is with us and as friendly as he is with visitors ... I would still truly feel sorry for anyone who tried to harm my mom in any way.

I'm a proud owner of a husky Akita! Check him out.

Anyways, this mix is awesome and I’m not just saying that because my dog is a husky Akita. The Akita in him makes him territorial, that is to say they make great guard dogs. They bark only when they have too. As puppies they require lots of exercise and training. Otherwise they can be a handful, but what breed isn't?
The husky in them makes them ready for any winter anywhere. And adds that special wolf factor. My dog was the runt of the litter and now weighs 75 pounds! The only downside is the shedding.
Otherwise this breed is a beautiful if two purebreds are mixed.
There is not one time I have taken my dog for a walk and have not received a compliment on how beautiful he is.

I wouldn't recommend Akitas to most as they are terribly stubborn and dominant. Having said that I have to admit I'm hooked on the breed. If you're willing to spend a lot of time and money in the beginning to train both the dog AND yourself so you can have a happy life together -it'll pay off incredibly. I took about 3 weeks vacation just to work with mine when I first got him. If you're looking for what I sometimes think of as a typical dog, the Akita is not it. This breed is so loyal and loving but not like any other I've known. Not high energy like most dogs but always happy for a short 2 minutes of any kind of play-then back to sleep. He's crazy about going to parks, hiking, etc. Akitas love their family and hate to be separated from them-mine HATES closed doors but leave it open for him, he'll investigate and leave again-they just want to know all that's going on. Akitas aren't known for barking much, more for mooing or almost mumbling like an old man-gotta see it to believe it. Do a lot of research online or from books and meet some breeders and their dogs to see if this truely is a type of dog for you. Not to preach but please don't get an akita from anyone but a reputable breeder as this breed is known for many health problems when not from a true bloodline. The akita is an incredible breed but like I said not for everyone so do your homework.

Basic Training of the Puppy - Read here https://tr.im/gPKax

The new puppy is certainly one of the most adorable and cuddly creatures that has ever been created. It is the most natural thing in the world to shower it with love and affection. However, at the same time it is important to realize that if you want to have a well trained adult dog, you need to begin the training process right away. The dog, like its related ancestor, the wolf, is a pack animal. One of the features of a pack is that it has a single dominant leader. Your new puppy is going to want that leader to be you, but if you do not assume that role from the very beginning, the puppy’s instincts will push him to become the leader.

The most important thing to remember about training the puppy during its first six months of life is that it must see you as the leader of the family pack. The essential thing is gaining the trust and the respect of the puppy from the beginning. You will not do this by allowing the puppy to do whatever it wants to do whenever it wants to do it. On the other hand, a certain amount of patience is required. Most people err in their early training by going to extremes one way or the other. Although you need to begin the basic training process at once, you can not expect your dog to do too much at first. Basic obedience training is fine and should include simple commands like sit, stay, and come. Remember that trying to teach the dog advanced obedience techniques when it is a puppy is much like trying to teach a five year old child algebra.

It is also important to restrain from cruel or abusive treatment of the puppy. You can not beat obedience into your dog, and it certainly is not going to engender feeling of respect and trust. House breaking is an area where this usually becomes a problem because of the anger that is triggered when the puppy fails and creates a mess inside the home. Although this issue must be addressed without anger, it most be addressed. If you allow the puppy to eliminate inside the house, it will continue to do so as an adult dog. The same thing is true of other destructive or dangerous behavior such as chewing and biting. Do not expect the puppy to grow out of it. You are going to need to train the puppy out of it, but you should do so firmly but with a sense of play and fun using positive reinforcement and lots of love and praise for good behavior.

Answer 5

I was really worried about getting an Akita but he is the most loving dog. Doesn't bark, really easy to potty train and easy to train because they are smart. However, they are smart so they think and do many things on their own. So they need training early! They also test you to make sure you are the Alpha dog so be prepared to stand firm at times.

I love my Akita, so I don't think you can go wrong.

Answer 6

I know the Japanese Akita. They are lovely, like a big husky with a double coat for warmth. They carry their tails curled back on their body.

Answer 7

I have two pure akitas, 3 years old. They are fantastic dogs, wonderful temperament and are my babies but they do need a lot of work, I have to spend hours grooming then and they are very social dogs, they do not like to be left home alone for very long or they either cry (which annoys the neighbours) or chew (which annoys me). if you have time on your hands then I can thoroughly recommend the akita.

Answer 8

Husky is a breed that needs to be worked. They can be destructive if they get bored.
Akita's can be very dominating.

Both breeds are large and intelligent.

So....you will need to take the dog to training and spend a good amount of time with it. If you do that, you will be rewarded with a loving intelligent dog who will be loyal and protective of you and your family.

Please make sure you train this cross breed. It will need it.

Answer 9

no wolf in them husky akita crosses are nice dogs lots of hard work training and exercise

Answer 10

First of all I don't get why you are breeding the dogs in the first place as you are just going to produce a mutt. Unless you are going to keep all maybe 7 + puppies pooping and peeing everywhere it seems like a bad idea to me. Anyway you should wait until the male is a year old and you should expect a husky/Akita/wolf mix.
