Akita. Can be really hard headed, but once they realize you're more hard headed they never try you again but you got to get ahold of their mind. No bark, very trainable, aggressive (not very good with other dogs, animals, or strangers - a note to this is the CA show dogs have a lot of their aggression bred out of them). Be prepared for hair, lots of hair. Best dog you'll ever be partners with. My one boy, if someone he didn't know walked in the house without me they'd never hear a bark and he would land a paw on each of their shoulders and look down on them with a head 1/2 again as big as a humans. He was a really big boy, I quit weighing him at 165 lbs. He was also funny about letting people enter the yard but wouldn't let them out. I think he had a sense of humor.
