I think what Andrea meant is don't beed her at all There are enough cross breeds already.

She definitley isn't an Akita even if she was underwieght she would have a bigger frame and shorter legs, definitley cross breed.

i agree, she has the wrong frame to be 100% akita

Rescues throughout the country are full to the rafters with crossbreeds that people thought it would be a good idea to mate.
Of these it has recently been estimated that 10,000 each year are put to sleep because there are not enough homes for all the puppies produced.

It may sound harsh, but I don't know what the pups would look like, but I do know that YOU would look like an irresponsible backyard breeder if you bred your dogs, so please think again!

My advice was NOT to breed her i was tryig to be polite and non offensive , If i can tell you one thing i have learned in the nearly 2 years ive been using this forum is that breeding isnt what its cracked up to be.
As a lay person who knew nothing about what is envolved in breeding a litter i was amazed reading some of the posts off experienced breeders who would get quite cross with people who wanted to know about breeding cos of similar things you have said , " she would make a good mom " or ive got this type of dog what would the pups look like if i bred my bitch with this kind of dog .
Its not that we want to preach to those inexperienced people we are helping you not to make the wrong descision for you and your dog .
Firstly any ethical owner would not just allow you to breed from there pedigree , ( as you said what about breeding her with a Mal ) .
To ensure you are not passing on any herreditary health conditions you should have your dog tested for relevant conditiions , would you want to pass on for example the possability of hip dysplacia or epilepsy , tests cost money , i know someone who's dog has just had 10 pups , she isnt a good mom she is clumsy and sits on them , this could kill them so the owner is having to remove the pups after feeding and every 2 hours day and night they are being given back to mom in groups of 5 to feed then they need top up feeding if not thriving , then htere is the cost of pup milk to subsidise moms milk and vet checks for the pups , and vaccinations before they can be sold , and would you be prepared to personally check out buyers to make sure they are going to good homes , and would you be prepared to take back a pup if the new owners could not cope .
If you descide to breed your dogs i would encourage you to do as much research as possible go to other breeders to ask questions see first hand how much work is involved , and the cost to you as the owner .
I personally took the desision not to breed my 2 golden Labs because they were not good enough quality to be bred from , they have elbow conditions that could be passed on to pups , this was due to their parents not being health tested or the breeder not caring about health and only seeing pound signs . Im not saying this is why you want to breed but i would urge you to reconsider

i agree with most of what u are saying but the end bit is abit strong, just cos people breed crosses does not make them look like byb, alot of crosses are bred well (i know not all) we should not tar them all with the same brush

That would make her 13 stone definately not Akita then

that made me titter lol,

NO it is not.i got her because i fell in love with her and as i don`t as yet know if she wants babys i am just checking what dog would be ok with her and as my jack russle is the only pure i hae ever had i don`t see any problem with so called MUTTS and it may seem ridiculous to someone who has always had pure breeds but every dog deserves to be love for who they are not WHAT they are

Omg here we go again.
We have nothing agaisnt cross breeds. Most peple here probably have one. You haven't read our posts properly. It isn't up to her whether she wants babies or not, most bitches would happily have babies when they are on heat, but you would be very irresponsible to mate a cross bred dog with another dog. HAVEN'T YOU SEEN 10,000 CROSSBREEDS A YEAR ARE PUT TO SLEEP BECAUSE OF THIS SORT OF BREEDING! We obviously care and love them! God open your eyes.

Sorry i get mad with people like this
