Taking care of Akita Inu is not difficult, but it is still there. Most of the time will have to be spent combing out the undercoat, especially during the molt, which occurs twice a year. Between molts, the dog is combed 1-2 times a week. It is recommended to bathe Akita Inu rarely, no more than once a year, since, with frequent washing, especially with shampoos, wool and skin lose their protective waterproofing properties. Claws are clipped as needed unless they are naturally ground.
