Breed Information
Overview
An Aki-poo is a cross between an Akita and a Poodle. They grow into large dogs that are devoted to their families, loyal and protective of them, and also affectionate with them. Aki-poos tend to resemble their Akita parent, but individual puppies will vary and some may inherit more Poodle characteristics.
Temperament
Aki-poos are courageous dogs that are loyal to their families and tend to be protective of them. This can make them initially suspicious of strangers. However, as long as they have been properly socialized and trained, they will tend to warm up once introduced.
They also tend to take on an easygoing, playful, and affectionate personality with their families and people they know. They tend to get along well with other dogs and children, but may prefer older children.
An Aki-poo also tends to have a high prey drive. So, although they may do well with smaller pets they were raised with, they will need extra socialization with them and may have an urge to chase smaller animals they don’t know.

Aki-poos are also sometimes called Akidoodles, Akitapoos, and Pookitas.
