Akitas are Fearless
What is never debated is the Akita’s historical and famous combination of fearlessness and loyalty. These traits were once put to the test at the London Zoo, when a Sumatran tiger cub was orphaned. The zookeepers needed special help in raising the cub, and they chose an Akita puppy for this important task. They knew the Akita would not be frightened and could engage in play that would help the tiger cub with necessary life lessons. Moreover, the Akita’s dense fur would protect him from sharp claws. The pup’s inherent loyalty to his playmate would provide desired companionship and protection for the bewildered, orphaned cub. The Akita served in the role successfully and “retired” from the job when the tiger reached near-adulthood.
On a leash. Always on a leash. Remember, Akitas are courageou and their hunting instincts are strong! He will walk in this manner By nature, it’s hard to them to accept another dog, especially of the same sex, so usually it does not work just to “have a touch of noses,” which would be the beginning of playing. However, they love to move, need company that is good for their health anyway.
The American Akita doesn’t really need special care compared to other kinds of dogs, perhaps it is even simpler than many other breeds. However, the protection of their feet and stomach is worth highlighting. To protect their joints, we can add some health supplements, and the dangers to their stomachs and digestive systems can be avoided by feeding them two times a day and then letting them to rest.
They ador the company of people and activity so walking is really important for them. The classic play with a ball may be boring for them so don’t be disappointed if they do not pring beck the ball. They like to play with any object that can be taken in their mouth, can be chewed and can be dragged.

Care & Play
If you consider that there is nothing to do with your akita than most probably you have missed somthing. There are several articles about American Akitas, which emphasize that Akita is not a good choice for first-time dog owners. This is true partly. If you have someone who support you in the traning and care of akitas and you follow firm and lovefull disciplines of tranings then your dog will make you joyfull. An Akita may not be a indefinitely obedient pet, he will be waggis in all of his actions. Be cautious of his leg and weight not to overload the joints!
