Akita Weather Tips
Limit outdoor time to 15 minutes. Stick to grass, bring water, and avoid pavement.
Limit outdoor time to 60 minutes. Use a coat and watch for shivering.
“Akitas were bred in the mountains of northern Japan to hunt bear, boar, and deer in snow. Their comfort zone is 20-50°F — anything above 75°F is outside their design specs.”
“Their double coat is so dense it's nearly waterproof in moderate rain. Japanese breeders describe it as the breed's "raincoat." But once wet through, it takes hours to dry.”
