Yes. Akitas and Huskies are among the breeds that shed the most.
Both breeds are double coated dogs. They have an outer layer of course, straight fur that repels water with an inner layer of softer, fluffy fur that insulates. At least twice a year dogs "blow coat" or shed. When the undercoat is shed it usually comes off in big clumps and because it is very fine it blows and drifts everywhere.

How long does a Japanese akita shed its hair for?
Akitas have a dense double coat. This means that their coat consists of an outer layer of hairs called "guard hairs" and the softer more plush undercoat. The undercoat is largely shed twice a year, in preparation for the cold winter months and the warm summer months. The sooner the Akita has all of the loose undercoat brushed or combed out the sooner it will stop shedding.
