It's imperative to keep your Akita's nail short and manicured. Long nails can snag in carpets, scratch surfaces, and also can crippling of the feet!

Dryer.jpg (9085 bytes) Blow Dryer
Although a dryer can make it much easier when grooming an akita, it is not necessary.  Now during that blowing season, a dryer can make this unpleasant time go by a bit faster, the dryer loosens the coat, and blows it free from the skin.  If you choose to use a dryer, you should purchase one that is safe for animals.  A human blow dryer creates to much heat for a dogs coat. You can burn their skin, or create a dry scratch coat.
