  • 16 month old American Akita Louis graduated from our 2-Week Board and Train. This lads reactivity towards dogs was up there with the worst we have seen. So much so we could not even catch it on camera because it took two people to hold on to him. Check out his turnaround!

    Good job. My Akita also did great with training and socialization. He was great around other dogs and cats but he always hated coyotes. We'd frequently see one or two on our walks. We lived in Az..
    They're the only animal he didn't want around. He'd always give them that "I want to hurt you look". I didn't let him of course. After a couple of encounters, the coyotes learned to stay out of his way. Khan passed in 2005 from an aggressive cancer in his chest. One day, he suddenly became weak and I immediately took him to his vet. He never showed any symptoms or signs of anything being wrong. My then wife was a vet tech and he saw the vet far more than most dogs.Three weeks later he was gone. I was devastated. He was everything an Akita was supposed to be, aside from being close buddies with a Siamese cat. He'd actually let the cat eat from his bowl WHILE he was eating. Weird cat...he liked dog food. I don't think a day has gone by that I don't shed a tear for Khan. It's been almost 15 yrs and I'm just now considering getting another Akita. They're the only breed I'll ever own. If you've ever had an Akita, you'll definately understand. I know there are other great breeds out there but the Akita stands apart. Keep up the great work in training ! Love the video !

      @Lou No, an Akita, either Japanese or American, is not a good choice for a first time owner. IMO, neither is a Rottweiler or a Doberman. If you are adamant about getting one of these breeds though, I'd opt for the Doberman.

    What a BEAUTIFUL Akita Louis is there! I'm an all-around dog lover, but IMO, fewer breeds can match up to the strength/beauty of a WELL-trained Akita. Great job on your part, and it gives me more confidence to buying an Akita as an everyday dog. Unfortunately, some municipalities here in the US forbid ownership of Akitas, much the same as they do with Pit Bulls. I know once an Akita makes up his/her mind that it is going to to after something with aggression, that is one SCARY dog, so maybe more-than-a-few such incidents have resulted in some cities/towns banning Akita ownership, but who knows?
    Either way, I absolutely almost everything about the Akita, as it demands that their owner also has his/her shit together, before getting this magnificent breed.

    I’ve used head collars on obstinate dogs and they worked wonders. Might try that. Gives you more control and since he’s so big and strong you won’t be wore out at the end of a walk and you can curb his response to the other dog as soon as you feel his body tense instead of waiting for him to lunge. Beautiful dog.

      @mercuropheliac ปีที่แล้ว

      Noticed a HUGE difference when I've got my girl on a head collar (when I can get it on her lol -- still needs time getting used to it, if she ever will). Once it's on, controlling her on walks have been a breeze -- though there is still some fidgeting (trying to get it off) and pulling if there's too much external stimuli, but today I actually got her to sit when 2 other dogs were passing her by at the park. I think my vet was right in that harnesses actually encourage pulling.

    • @MixieMooz
      @MixieMooz 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I got my A.Akita on both a head collar and harness with a lead that connects at both ends. Much easier to walk as the headcollar being the main part, the harness is useful as she's reactive so I can pull her body as well as her head away.

    My American Akita was worse than this. Unfortunately, I was a first time dog owner and didn't really research the breed before getting him
    For Ares, the harness made the situation worse. The trainer I got didn't recommend them. Just a normal lead and flat collar. When I was trained 🤣 how to properly use them and give corrections, it really worked for me.
    I really enjoy our nightly walks now instead being dragged down the street or being flat on my behind when he lunged trying to get to other animals

    Where are you located? My Akita has all sorts of issues thx to the person that neglected him before we got him
    He’s food aggressive bc he was the runt of the litter and the previous owner took him away from his mother at 4-5 weeks old and fed him cheap moldy dog food
    Is reactive towards ppl bc they never socialized him with ppl before we got him
    And is also reactive towards other dogs bc he was never around other dogs
    When we tried to socialize him with ppl he would bark, growl, and even try to bite ppl at just 14 weeks old
    And he also got into two dog fights at around 10 weeks old

      redman masonji Just curious why you don’t want anyone to know where to find a well bred Akita, and, not be taken advantage of financially? I’m in that exact situation. My rescue Akita died in 2008. I’m not ready to open my heart, and, home to another Akita. However, I run into people who guard the names of their breeders like they’ll be executed for sharing information. I, honestly do not understand.

    • @elphiena
      @elphiena 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Socializing your dog doesn’t mean introductions with strange people and dogs. You want him to be uninterested in other dogs and people and your doing him a disservice by letting people pet him or meet with other dogs on the leash. You need to be what your Akita focuses on and is interested in, not the environmental distractions. When you teach him to focus on you during all sorts of new situations, he is properly socialized. When my dogs are on their leash, they are working. They love it.

      @@aliyahadaanni Hi, it's been about a year and a half, Yoshi is well mannered for the most part. He doesn't emergency recall that well but he can do any of the commands. I don't walk him off leash because of the dangers of other dogs that may be off leash. You really have to continue the training once you get your dog back..
      With Yoshi being and Akita, he has a thick floofy neck and they had to use prongs on his e-collar.. It turned out he was allergic to the metal so they had to get some titanium prongs.. He had sores on his neck that I wasn't happy about.. Aside from that, he really does respond well with the e-collar but I choose not to use it because of the prongs.
      All in all I'd say he is a lot more behaved and I don't regret sending him for the 2 weeks.
