Akita Rottweiler Breed Details
The Akita and Rottweiler mix, as a crossbreed, is not an official member of any breed group--but both the Akita and the Rottweiler parent breeds are members of the Working group in most clubs, so the Akita-Rottie mix would fit nicely in that category. Neither does any info exist about Rottweiler x Akita mix origin; while an Akita mix with Rottweiler may have existed naturally for a long time, no breeder or breed club has claimed its creation. Regardless, these big, powerful hybrids will be loyal, protective pets, especially for those looking for a guard dog--but they'll need a lot of training and socialization.
A few facts about the Akita x Rottweiler: they're giant-sized, averaging 25 inches at the shoulders in height and 105 pounds in weight; they have short, thick, double-layered coats that shed seasonally; and they'll need extensive training and socialization to help them remain calm and peaceful.
