# 10 Start training as early as possible – these pets are very smart, so they understand the required minimum of commands by 8 weeks after birth.
In a couple of months, you can expand the list of techniques and bring them to automatism.
# 11 Приучите малыша к тому, что хозяин имеет право забирать любую вещь или еду – это необходимо делать в возрасте от 2 месяцев хотя бы до полугода.
Take the toy, but don't tease, pause and return it. Akita will get used to the fact that the owner will always return what he deserves, so he can be trusted. If you do not develop this style of behavior, an adult dog will react aggressively to an attempt to take away an item taken without permission or inappropriate food.
# 12 Despite the great temptation, do not take your puppy to sleep in bed.
By itself, such a habit is not scary, but the dog must get used to the fact: the leader sleeps on the bed, the Akita - on the floor (arrange a soft rug or a separate couch).
