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.

The Pennsylvania state dog is none other than the regal and formidable Great Dane, a dog breed that worked hard alongside its early European settler companions. The state legislature formalized the standing of the state dog in 1965, stating: "...WHEREAS, the physical and other attributes of the Great Dane, to wit: size, strength, beauty, intelligence, tolerance, courage, faithfulness, trustworthiness and stability exemplify those of Pennsylvania.” As for the household dog owners of Pennsylvania, their other favourites include Pit Bulls, Rottweilers and German Shepherds, plus a host of Doodle Dogs. Dog owners in the Keystone State enjoy access to miles and miles of dog-friendly hiking trails.
The Kennel Club of Philadelphia Dog Shows has been an (almost) annual event since 1879.
Pennsylvania allows dogs at more than 50 of its state parks.
