Akita is a large, sturdily built dog of faithful, docile and receptive temperament. It originated in the 17th century in Japan where it was used for bear-hunting and as fighting dog. Akitas are powerful dogs which are not suitable for inexperienced dog owners. They come in many colors including red and brindle. Browse a nationwide list of Akita breeders to find an Akita dog or puppy.
When visiting a litter, a potential owner should ask to see documentation of the Akita litter's parents' clearance from the OFA or PennHIP (USA) for hip dysplasia (HD), and from CERF for hereditary eye diseases. Ask the breeder if the following health disorders are common in his line: entropin (inward-turning eyelids), glaucoma, PRA, microphthalmia, hypothyroidism, phemphigus foliaceus (skin disease), hemolytic anemia, VKH (skin and eye disease), thrombocytopenia (blood-clotting failure), epilepsy and chondrodysplasia.
