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.

The north-eastern coastal state of Massachusetts was one of the first regions of the Americas where Europeans settled a few centuries ago. When settlers came to these shores, they often brought their canine companions along with them. There were two dogs on the Mayflower, and they didn’t take the long voyage from England just to keep their families company! Dogs were working animals in the early European settlements of Massachusetts, protecting livestock from wolves, foxes and other predators. Most of those first immigrant dogs were Mastiffs, Greyhounds and English Setters. By 1784, there were an estimated 30,000 dogs in the entire state.
Massachusetts dogs Duke and Huntah have sniffed out COVID-19 at more than a dozen schools in the state.
The Massachusetts state dog is named after the capital city: the Boston Terrier.
