The Akita dog is not small and is a medium-sized dog. Because it can hunt and is active in daily life, its food needs to have sufficient nutrients.

In the daily feed, about 500 grams of meat should be provided every day, plus an equal amount of vegetarian feed such as oatmeal, biscuits, etc. The meat should be cooked first, then cut into small pieces and mixed with cooked vegetarian feed before feeding. The meat should be fresh and the cooking process should be clean and hygienic. Do not use unfinished food from the previous meal as the next meal. Tableware such as troughs should be cleaned frequently.

The Akita Inu was originally a hunting dog. It has a certain wildness and cannot be kept indoors all the time. It must be allowed to go out for walks, running, jumping and other activities. This dog is prone to filariasis. Outdoor breeders should pay attention to the environmental hygiene of the kennel and prevent it from lying around.
