From Day OneIf your puppy is ever aggressive to another dog or person, as with any dog of any breed you must correct them straight away. A firm and loud "NO" whilst looking at your puppy should be your first response. If your puppy stops and looks up at you, you must praise them for doing what you asked, remember dogs live in the moment. If however your puppy has chosen to ignore you then other ideas like shaking a plastic bottle with stones in it immediateley after they have done something wrong. Again if they stop and look up at you, praise them. A water pistol can also be effective and growling like a dog works really well. SEIJITSU'S GUIDES... From Day One... Akita's are a dominant breed and although can learn easily about the pecking order in their homes, out and about can be a different story. Although an Akita usually will not go out to start fights with other dogs they are certainly capable of defending themselves.So socialisation is the key, try to socialise your puppy with other dogs every week and continue this well into their teenage stage (around 8-14 month period), this should help overcome any issues you might have. Please remember that although a lot of people will let their dogs roam off the lead, it is a legal requirement to keep your dog under control at all times. Therefore we recommend that you do not let your Akita off the lead unless they are in a controlled environment, or you can recall your dog every time. We find the bitches when not in season or due in season can be let off and will do recall, we NEVER let any of our males off the lead due to their built in humting instincts. Off The Lead...
