Big Paws Only Dog Forums

My Akita is just over one year old. I used to take him to the dog park as well. He unfortunately likes to let everyone know in a "friendly" way that he's the boss and it doesn’t always go over well. Akita's are very independent and stubborn. We are very good dog owners and trainers. We make our Akita work for everything and he loves it! Still... he cannot be trusted in a dog park. Sorry, I wouldn't risk it.
