Akita Dogs

Akita dogs are large dogs that need lots of training to turn them into them a good friendly house dog. Having an Akita dog is not like owning any other dog. This is a large pushy dog, that by disposition is domineering and will seek to seize control of a group or household. If you are thinking about getting an Akita dog then you really need to do your research before taking the plunge.

Akita dogs are by disposition dog belligerent and require thorough socialization when they are pups to get them familiar to other dogs. Even a well-trained Akita has to be carefully monitored when around other dogs, especially male dogs.

The Akita has lots of fine qualities like absolute faithfulness to its pack; it's this deeply inbred loyalty that can cause the Akita dog to become belligerent when near other dogs. It may misunderstand playfulness by other dogs, as a threat and attack. You need to counter this tendency by training the Akita from a puppy.

It's also very territorial and does not mix well. If you introduce an Akita dog to your house it will soon try to demonstrate its position as pack leader. A huge part of training the dog is to make sure that it acknowledges you and other family members are above it in the pack hierarchy.

It's crucial that you do this, if you don't, then the Akita will take control and if that occurs your ownership of the dog will not be agreeable. Don't even think about taking on an Akita dog without having an excellent instruction plan in place.

It will require a lot of your time in the early days to train it to its new environment. Lots of people take on Akita dogs and fail with them because they don't realise what having an Akita involves. You need to do some serious research about this dog before committing yourself to owning one.

A properly socialized Akita is a wonderful friend for life, they're loyal, playful and once trained relatively easy to look after. They're not the kind of dogs you can take onto a general park however, and just let free. Even a socialized Akita requires close observation when near other dogs and strange people.

Akita dogs make admirable guard dogs and family pets when they are well trained, I can't emphasise the well trained advice enough. If you're thinking of getting an Akita then look for an training school to take it to while it is young. The quicker it becomes socialized with other dogs the better. Training is the key to successful ownership of the dog.
