A mix between the Akita and the Chow Chow, the Akita Chow is a large and often single-minded dog who needs a confident owner. Sometimes called Chakitas, these dogs are loyal and loving as well as occasionally stubborn. Best suited to a larger home with a yard, the Akita Chow makes a great running or hiking partner for lovers of the great outdoors. At 88 to 145 pounds, they need plenty of room to run around and prefer to do so in the company of family.
