3. Akita

Akita is a Japanese breed that originally served as a hunting dog but found its purpose among watchdogs. Even though they are not friendly with strangers, Akitas don’t mind tolerating them if their owners are home.

These types of dogs are very brave and they are not afraid of a challenge. You can leave them home alone while you are at work or out and about, but keep in mind that they will need your attention when you get back.
