Summary
About Akita
Large, powerful Japanese spitz breed with a broad head, curled tail and dense double coat that sheds heavily. Calm, independent and reserved with strangers but deeply loyal to family and a natural guardian. Intelligent yet strong‑willed, best for experienced, consistent owners.
About Australian Cobberdog
The Australian Cobberdog is a purpose-bred companion and therapy dog: medium, athletic, and people-focused with a silky low-shedding fleece coat. Sensitive, intuitive, and highly trainable, it needs daily mental stimulation, social contact, and regular grooming to stay healthy and content.
