Akita 

The Akita makes an excellent companion or guard dog. When sensing strangers or other dogs, they will bark, although not excessively. They are composed and faithful. While they are generally docile dogs, the Akita can be assertive and dominant, as well as food-possessive, and does not get along well with other animals. They are willful and need firm training as a puppy. They have a strong instinct to chase anything that moves.
