What are the names of some famous Akita Inus?
Apparently, there is only one Akita Inu that is widely known throughout the world.His name was Hachiko (ハチ公 in Japanese), an Akita of the Japanese variety that lived in Japan from 1923 -1935. Hachiko was recognized as one of the most loyal dogs in history, waiting nine years for the return of his owner.Hachiko was owned by Hidesaburo Ueno, a professor at the University of Tokyo, and Hachiko used to go to the Shibuya Station to greet his owner when he returned from work. Sadly, Hidesaburo Ueno died from cerebral hemorrhage. Even though Hidesaburo Ueno never returned, Hachiko spent the next nine years waiting for him at the train station until his own death.The movie Hachi: A Dog's Tale, was based on him although some parts of the plot are different from reality.Another less known Akita Inu was Gin, an Akita that appeared in the adventure manga Ginga: Nagareboshi Gin.
What makes an American akita different then akita inu?
the Japanese akita inu was created in world war 2, the story is there was a Japanese mother with 3 kids in world war 2 and she had to leave her home to go find her and her kids food and water but she couldent leave them alone, so she bred her 2 dogs toghether and made the Japanese akita inu to protect her kids. there also known as the babysitter dogs. after that mothers all around the world leave there kids in the safe hands of the Japanese akita inu. in japan when someone is sick or having a baby there family and friends give them a statue of the Japanese akita inu for a symble of good luck and loyalty. the Japanese akita inu is a, loyal, corageus, very very smart, great with kids, protective dog, they are made for babysitting children and protecting there family even if it means his or her life. he will die for you. hatchi was a Japanese akita inu too. as the Americans ruined the Japanese akits inu by breeding them with something else and making the American akita. the American akitas story is, these Americans were jelouse of how stong and loyal the Japanese akita inus were, so they took one and bred it with a whole bunch of diffarend dogs to try to out bid the Japanese akits inu. so the dogs they have now are American akits and they are so diffarent, they, are bigger (not better at all), stronger, more diffarent. the American akita is not good with clildren. needs a strong leader. needs to know who is the alpha. the American akita is now made for killing brear and big game. and dog fighting too. if you have children of any age i highly recomend the Japanese akita inu.
Who is the dog hachiko?
The dog Is an Akita."The Akita Inu (秋田犬?) is a breed of large dog originating in Japan, named for Akita Prefecture, where it is thought to have originated. It is considered a separate breed from theAmerican Akita in most countries (with the exception of the American and Canadian Kennel Clubs) as requested by the Japanese Kennel Club. The Japanese Akita Inu is quite uncommon in most countries outside of Japan. Japanese history, both verbal and written, describes the ancestors of the Akita Inu, the Matagi dog, as one of the oldest of the native dogs. The Akita Inu of today developed primarily from these dogs in the northernmost region of the island of Honshū in the Akita prefecture, thus providing the breed's name. The Matagi's quarry included elk, antelope, boar, and Asian black bear. This swift, agile, unswervingly tenacious precursor dog tracked large game and held it at bay until the hunters arrived to make the kill.Recent DNA analysis found that the Akita was among the most ancient dog breeds.[6]During World War II, the number of Akita dogs greatly diminished because of the lack of food. There were also orders to capture all dogs except German Shepherds in order to use their fur for warm army uniforms.During the occupation years following the war, the breed began to thrive again through the efforts of Morie Sawataishi and others. For the first time, Akitas were bred for a standardized appearance. Akita fanciers in Japan began gathering and exhibiting the remaining Akitas and producing litters in order to restore the breed to sustainable numbers and to accentuate the original characteristics of the breed muddied by crosses to other breeds. US servicemen fell in love with the Akita and imported many of them into the US upon and after their return.The Japanese Akita and American Akita began to diverge in type through the middle and later part of the 20th century with the Japanese Akita fanciers focusing on restoring the breed as a work of Japanese art and American Akita fanciers selecting for the larger, heavier-boned dogs that emerged from the post-war times. Both types derive from a common ancestry, but marked differences can be observed between the two. First, while American Akitas are acceptable in all colors, Japanese Akitas are only permitted to be red, fawn, sesame, white, or brindle. Additionally, American Akitas may be pinto and/or have black masks, unlike Japanese Akitas.Much debate occurs among Akita fanciers of both types whether there are or should be two breeds of Akita. To date, the American Kennel Club and Canadian Kennel Club, guided by their national breed clubs, consider American and Japanese Akitas to be two types of the same breed, allowing free breeding between the two. The FCI and Kennel Clubs in most other nations consider Japanese and American Akitas as separate breeds." - Wikipedia

What type of dog is hatchiko?
Hachiko was a beautiful white Akita from Japan, and he grew to be over 90lbs. He was found by a professor in Japan when Hachiko was just 2 months old. Hachiko would visit the train station and wait for his owner to come back from work each day. Sadly, when Hachiko was roughly 1.5 years old, his owner has a stroke whilst at work and died, and so he didn't arrive back whilst Hachiko waited. Akita's often get very attached to one person, and Hachiko was no exception. He ran away, back to the station, when another family tried to take him in. Hachiko returned to the train station every day and waited for his owner to return until his own death almost 10 years later. A statue has been erected Save outside the station where Hachiko used to sit. Because of this true tale, Akitas are often seen as the most loyal breeds of dog.
