Hello Everybody, I'm new to this and wanted to get out in the Akita world a little bit more. We recently purchased a puppy Akita. She is the cutest thing ever! We didn't want to go the puppy mill route but she really is the cutest puppy I've ever seen in my life. The breeder we got her from didn't have any dogs except for the father and the mother and they were kept in a nice area. Now to people who own an Akita what do you think of the puppy? How big do you think she will get? I have a picture of her mother (black) and father (grayish tan) Thanks!
How cute is she ! My husband tells me she is definitely not an a Shiba Inu and he feels that the mother is a Japanese Akita and the father an American Akita. I hope you have lots of fun with her and keep us updated with your progress. I remember ours was so tiny when we got him, he's 7 month now and wow has he grown !
Akita Inus are a pure/pedigree breed. They are also called Japanese Akitas and are very distinctive looking. They are different to American Akitas and relatively easy to tell apart. Yours is an American Akita.
So what do you think about her parents? Are they both American Akitas also? Is there going to be a big change in her while growing up? I feel as though that she will be as big as her mother
The Akita is known as the American Akita. The Akita Inu is known as the Japanese Akita. Though a bit fine boned she looks like an Akita , from the picture the mother doesn’t look like a pure Inu, could be mixed lines, or poor breeding, the sire looks Akita but is also fine boned. Did you get a pedigree ?
No I didn't get a pedigree, just really wanted an Akita so we got the cutest one we came across. I'm hoping she comes out looking like her mother of some sort. She is fine boned but she's gaining some weight and getting bigger. Definitely our next one we will do our research and get one from strictly an Akita breeder.
Hello, I need this puppa in my life. Fight down the puppy broodiness don't let it get to you Jane. (talking to myself lol) Jane xx
