Before you decide on this breed being the best choice for your family, check out the different characteristics and traits of an Akita dog. The Akita can be a tough breed to track down, as it is fairly uncommon. Past the Akita’s beautiful looks, many people aren’t as familiar with their personalities and that’s where this blog comes in! Here at Petland, we strive to make sure that every breed we send home matches their new owner’s personality and lifestyle, because that’s how you make lasting pet friendships! An Akita Inu may be called Great Japanese Dog, Japanese Akita or American Akita and are renowned for their amazing intelligence. An Akita dog may easily become bored because it is very intelligent and therefore constant interaction and training is a must. ### **Here are some more tidbits about the Akita:** - This breed does not require regular grooming despite its thick fur. It does not need trimming, but it has to be brushed regularly to keep its coat shiny and healthy. - This dog is very easy to train, but needs regular reinforcement training to learn additional tricks and commands. - It is one of the best watchdogs since it will bark to alert its owners that there is an intruder or if there is danger, otherwise it is very quiet. - The Akita can protect its family and will act fearless when there is an attack. It is said that it will do all it can to protect its owners and family. - This is the dog for fitness lovers since it needs regular exercise. It will accompany you to hikes, jogs and walks and will run with you if you want it to! - This dog is perfect for highly engaged and experienced pet owners. - This breed is good with children because it is playful and energetic. - An Akita does better in a larger space, but with frequent exercise it can do well in an apartment or condo. ### **So, you still think this breed is for you?

My dad got my Malti-poo from this store 6yrs ago when I was a teen. We bought him at 3mo old! He was a happy puppy. My family requested to play with him in the little cubicles and we were delighted. He was a little pricey, but he had his papers, proper shots/vaccines, and had an underbite that made him adorable. He’s doing well even today! Never gotten injured or sick. He’s expected to live the normal expectancy of a malti-poo. I don’t remember much about the store or any changes since then, but I remember that the lady helping us was nice! Here is Marshmallow! Posted on Google Charles B Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lots of dogs for adoption, well taken care of. Also have some birds, rabbits and a few sleepy ferrits. I stopped in for some feeder fish. Very nice staff. Posted on Google Joshua B Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Loved the exotic birds Posted on Google Melinda R Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was my 2nd time back. My daughter has been wanting another set of guinea pigs. I saw the most beautiful lionhead rabbit 🐇 about 7 weeks. LORENZO educated me on their demeanor, foods etc... I was there a good while, he showed no signs of rushing me, or pushing a sale. Answered all my questions and even educated me on ferrets as i asked lol he loves his job & wish all associates were like this everywhere! I was very pleased 😀 didn't grab the rabbit as my daughter took forever to answer me, but we're leaving for vacation and would not be cool to leave him alone . We will be back! And I will only ask for him! Thank you for the great customer service! ```
