Japanese Akita

Also known as Akita Inu, the Japanese Akita is purebred with his roots originated in Japan. It is not mixed with any other breed.

This was the breed that Hellen Keller brought with herself to the United States. Hachiko, the famous Akita which waited 9 years at the Shibuya station after his master’s death was also a purebred Japanese Akita.

They can be found in the United States as Japanese breeders see it as a “National Monument” or a dog which glorifies their nation and ancient history.

They have a Fox-like head and almond-shaped eyes like Huskies.

American Akita

The first American Akita came into existence in 1956. Japanese Akita had not entered into the United States until 1937.

After the Second World War was over, a lot of US Army personnel brought Akita dogs along with them to their home country.

American Akita is more muscular and has beer-like looks and head as opposed to Japanese Akita which has a fox-like head.

Later, those servicemen from U.S Army were more impressed with more muscular and larger America’s version of Akita, which was mixed with dogs like German Shepherd and acquired bear-like looks, according to Wikipedia.
