Good overview of the Akita, "Complete" is misleading. November 23, 2004 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The book provides quality information, just keep in mind it is pretty much a general overview of many topics. It does not go in depth on any one topic (i.e. training, nutrition, history). For someone who doesn't know anything about dogs, particularly Akitas, this would be good. I found a lot of the information general dog knowledge.
Training tips October 10, 2003 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I have purchased this book after adopting an Akita. The book states not to adopt an older Akita like I did. I do not agree. I have a great 2yr old Akita that I adopted from my local animal shelter. This book does have some great information until it comes to training.I would suggest a different book if training is what your looking for.
Short, but filled with information. November 25, 2001 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
I have bought several books about Akita's from Amazon. This book was filled with information and was written in a easy to read format. I own seven Akita's and have raised two litters. Anyone thinking of purchasing an Akita for the first time should read this book.
