I want an Akita when I move out. I have a siberian husky allready. I went to several websites about the breed and this is some of the things I have found..
RECIPE FOR GOOD AKITA TEMPERAMENT
First and foremost, every dog, not just an Akita, should be bite inhibited.
He should be so reluctant to bite, that he does so only under the direst of
circumstances. Even then, he should bite only once, and damage from the
bite should be very minimal.
Second, an Akita should be accepting of authority, that is he should be
submissive. Between and within breeds, the degree of submissiveness
varies. The Akita's independent nature may well modify its willingness to
cooperate.
Third, an Akita should like children. Just as retrievers like sticks and balls,
this breed should have an affinity for children.
Fourth, an Akita should be accepting of non-threatening strangers,
regardless of whether the stranger is friendly or neutral.
Fifth, an Akita should have enough confidence to be at ease an unfamiliar
setting.
Sixth, an Akita should be trainable. He should be willing and able to learn
behaviors that he repeats reliably.
Seventh, an Akita should stable around strange noises.
Eighth, to some degree, an Akita should have an independent nature.
Ninth, an Akita should have an inhibited nature. He should not respond to
stressful situations by becoming increasingly excited or agitated.
Tenth, faced with a threat, an Akita should be protective of their family.
Eleventh, an Akita should be accepting of other dogs.
