The Akita is simultaneously remarkable for its muscular stature and friendly face. Standing 24 to 28 inches high and weighing anywhere from 70 to 130 pounds, the sturdy Akita traces its lineage to Japan. These dogs have a thick and hardy double coat that serves them well in cool and cold climates. Akitas have a natural connection with humans but need socialization during puppyhood before being around kids and other animals. The Japanese revere the Akita as a loyal family protector.

Ontario is a largely pet-friendly place where it’s easy to have fun with your dog outdoors and away from home. Dog-friendly beaches, parks, hiking trails, campgrounds, hotels, restaurants and even tour groups abound in Canada’s second-largest province. The history of dogs in Ontario and throughout Canada is a long one, as Native people were the first to domesticate them in this part of the world thousands of years ago. The Canadian Kennel Club recognizes five pure Canadian breeds: the Tahltan bear dog, the Canadian Inuit dog, the Nova Scotia duck-tolling retriever, the Newfoundland dog and the Labrador Retriever.
Ontarians favourite breed of dog is the Labrador Retriever.
