Are Akitas dangerous?

No, Akitas are not inherently dangerous, but they can be if not properly trained, socialized, and managed. However, it’s essential to understand that a dog’s behavior is influenced by many factors, including genetics, upbringing, training, socialization, and the pet parent’s handling and care. 

Akitas are known for their loyalty, courage, and protective instincts, which can sometimes translate as aggression if not properly channeled. Proper training, socialization, and supervision can help ensure that Akitas are well-behaved companions for responsible pet pet parents. It’s important to remember that any dog, regardless of breed, can display aggression if they are mistreated, neglected, or poorly trained.
