akita?
No, he's a Thai Bangkaew, like a domesticated wolf breed or something similar, very good guard dog, works overtime.... kid on a skateboard playing outside the house, he'll be up on his little perch barking at them, loves to be up there so he can see everything going on. Very loyal, had to go away for a week and the missus said he was waiting by the door the whole time, when I got back, he went nuts for about 10 minutes. Very intelligent, could outsmart me by time he was 6 months old, that's not too hard to do though..
One bad thing is, he's very aggressive with other males, he was fine up until he was about a year old then he just switched, I couldn't take him around the village any more, I always had him on a leash but every little street has their pack leader or whatever and he would come up to my dog and want to fight but the problem with my dog is, he'll never stop going, even when the other dog quits he just keeps attacking, I've seen him do the same with 2 dogs, beat both of them, hard to imagine because around the house he's a teddy bear but with strangers and male dogs, different animal altogether.
Here's a bit more info on the breed.
