If have to asy that I have never found Akita trustworthy around other dogs - at a recent show one turned on a Pug and savaged the poor thing - now I don't have any direct experience of the breed but just observing their behaviour at dog shows etc I would say they are not a breed that mixes well witth other dogs.
 
OMG they are super adorable!
Kerilli, I will probably get shot down for this, but my Rottie would be ideal for what you are looking for - I don't know if you would consider one, but he is a fab house dog/pet, a rubbish guard dog as if anyone broke in he'd hide upstairs, BUT if another dog barks....ie if he's home with me and someone knocks on the door, he doesn't even bark, however if my friend's JRTs or my mum's pointer are there, and they start barking, he will join in, and all of a sudden instead of yapping, he does his proper big dog bark. I like to think that that would be enough to discourage anyone from even trying to break in! (hopefully, because if they did he woudl probably run and hide!) I've often said we should get a small nnoisy dog to give Kaiber a reminder of what he should be doing....otherwise he likely to doze right through anything!
I must also admit he sleeps upstairs so that if OH is away, should anyone break in downstairs, I like to imagine he might at least go to the top of the stairs and growl....now, I don't know many criminals who would brave a narrow, steep staircase with a 50kg Rottweiler at the top....!
 
Cute last pic looks like my mastiffxridgeback. Took her in off street last year,vet said she was about six months old,she is great with my other two dogs and my cats. Friend has akita x gsd plus three jrts she has never had a problem.
 
Just worked out how to put up pics. This is my mastiff x ridgeback after i had had her for two months. approx 8mth in pic.<a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc22/starbar_01/IMAG0001.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"></a>
 
Emma, i love rotties, absolutely adore them, not sure my OH would be great with one though... he's not that used to dogs, and tries to bully the jrts a bit. i could see a bigger dog having a problem with it tbh. but i'll have a chat with him and put rottie to the top of my list... thanks!
btw i know some are as soft as butter... the girl who rides out with me has one, called Princess something or other, and it is an absolute angel!
