Toy Akita Puppies for sale in Waltham Abbey, Essex

6 Toy Akita Puppies for sale in Waltham Abbey, Essex

The two separate varieties of Akita are a pure Japanese strain, called Akita Inu or Akita-ken, and a larger mixed strain, commonly referred to as the American Akita. The Akita is known for being an intelligent, bright, yet reserved and possessive dog. However, they should not be fearful or aggressive, but an Akita should be dignified, courageous and affectionate. He defends his family without hesitation, which in short means that he is an excellent guard dog. Today, the Akita has become a popular dog breed in the UK and elsewhere in the world, and for good reason, because when well socialised, he makes a wonderful companion and family dog. The breed originated in Japan, where it has always been highly regarded not only for its dignified, proud appearance, but also for its loyalty and devotion to its owners.

What are the disadvantages of Akita?

Akitas can be prone to health issues such as hip dysplasia and autoimmune disorders. They tend to be aloof and independent, which can make training challenging for first-time owners. Additionally, they require consistent socialization and grooming, and may not get along well with other pets without proper introduction.

Can you own an Akita in the UK?

Is Akita a good family dog?

Yes, Akitas can be good family dogs as they are loyal, protective, and affectionate with their family members. However, they require proper training and socialization from an early age due to their strong-willed and sometimes reserved nature. They may not be ideal for families with very young children or other pets without supervision.

Do Akitas bark a lot?

Akitas are generally quiet dogs and do not bark excessively. They tend to bark only when necessary, such as to alert their owners of strangers or unusual situations. However, individual temperament can vary.
