the color of sesame
The inclusion of sesame in the FCI standard can be misleading as true sesame has not appeared in Akita for several decades. It is possible that this is a tribute to the country of origin where the standard of the first breed club of the Akita specifies "guma" as an acceptable color for nostalgic reasons.
before making a decision
If you are debating whether an Akita Inu is suitable for your home, it is recommended to talk to a breeder who knows the breed in depth. A correct match between the dog and the family is just as important as external appearance or certificates.
