Pet Animals Pet Dogs Akita
An Akita named Hachiko symbolizes this breed's loyal character. Hachiko continued the habit of meeting his master every night at the train station even after the owner's death. The dog waited each evening until midnight and continued this practice for nine years, until the dog also died. An ancient breed that represents health and happiness, the Akita also hunted bear and boar. At one time, only the Imperial family could own Akitas, who had special leashes and caretakers. Today, the Japanese government lists the dog as a national monument and will subsidize the care of a champion. As pets, they are intelligent and protective.
