Sometimes their coat is solid and sometimes they have a mixture of colors. Akita dogs have a high energy level. Make sure your dog gets at least one good half to one hour walk a day, with some active play sessions and shorter walks. Akita breed dogs shed lightly throughout the year. This means they may not be allergic. Luckily, their coat is very easy to brush. One good brushing a week is probably enough. Akita dogs are incredibly loyal and affectionate with humans, including children, making them a great choice as a family pet. Akita dogs can get along well with other animals if introduced slowly and calmly, and early socialization will help this go well. It is best to get them used to other pets early. This mixed breed dog is eager to please. If you are able to train your Akita Pit consistently, you will end up with a loyal, loving and eager to please puppy. <\/p>\n
The Akita Pit mixed dog breed may have existed naturally over the years, but designer breeders began intentionally mixing Akitas and American Pit Bull Terriers in the late 1990s, probably in North America. Both Akitas and Pit Bulls are known for their intelligence, their eagerness to please, and their loyalty. By combining the two, breeders hoped to create a dog that could be both a family pet and a guard dog. They continued to create Akita Pit puppies as demand for the mixed breed increased. Although the Akita Pit mixed breed began as a designer breed, some have ended up in shelters or in the care of rescue groups. Consider adoption if you decide this is the breed for you. Check local shelters, look for Akita Pit rescues, or check with breed-specific Pit Bull Terrier or Akita rescues, as they sometimes take in mixed breed dogs and find them homes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
