| The Long Coat Akita |
The Long Coat (also known as a Wooley) are Akita's who's only difference from a standard coat is that their coats are a bit longer (length can vary in each dog) and the coat texture is softer and silkier. They do require more brushing, but only blow their coats twice a year like a standard coat. Long coats are produced when both the sire and dam carry this recessive gene. In the Akita breed standard, a long coat is a fault, but not a disqualifing fault and can be shown in the AKC ring. Their traits and personalities are the same as a standard coated Akita, but they are usually far less dominant and are very good with children. People who have long coats love them and will only own a long coat. They are ideal dogs for families. |
