The ancestor of a fighting dog
Akita Inu ancestor is akita matagi used for matagi (hunting deer and bear). In ancient times, large dogs did not exist in Japan. Akita Matagi is a medium-sized hunting dog for hunting bears.
In the Edo period, the Satake clan controlled the eastern province of God (Akita region). Earlier the Satake clan was the ruler of Hitachi Province but his domain was exchanged with Dewa Province after siding with the defeated West Forces in the Battle of Sekigahara. The Tokugawa shogunate treated the Satake clan as a tozama daimyo whose military power was severely restricted.
Around the year 1630, the Satake clan encouraged his followers to make a dog fight as an outlet for war. The Satake clan is linked to the East Satake family based at Kubota Palace. The other family of the Satake clan is the Western Family, the Northern Family, and the South Family, each based in O-tachi, Kakunodate, and Yuzawa. Western families domiciled in the O-tachi area are known as breeder dog breeds from crossing dogs Matagi and local dogs. The dog they produce is called O-tachi-ken (Dog O-tachi).
Until the Meiji period, the dogfighting tradition in Japan did not disappear. Breeders continue to breed dogs from local with large imported dogs to produce fighting dogs. Around 1897, dog breeders in Akita Prefecture brought Tosa Inu from Kochi Prefecture known as a fighting dog. Tosa Inu is crossed with imported dogs from the West so his body grows larger. After the First Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese who fled Sakhalin took home Sakhalin Husky and Hokkaido Inu.
In Akita Prefecture, Akita Inu's ancestors continue to be crossed with imported dogs from the West, among them thought to be with German pet mastiff engineers at the Kosaka Mines. In the middle of the Meiji era, the ancestors of akita dogs began to be crossed with German Shepherd Dogs and Great Dane. Akita Inu's body was born getting bigger and bigger. At that time, the erect ears and the curved tail that characterized the spitz dog began to disappear.
Dog fights have been banned in Akita prefecture since 1908 because they are considered to be destructive to the public. Residents are so immersed in gambling dogs that the prefectural government prohibits dog fighting. The banning of dog fighting, cockfighting, and cattle fighting throughout Japan has only been done by the Japanese Imperial Police Service since July 26, 1916. After dog fighting is prohibited, dog breeders from Akita Prefecture are experiencing a bleak period. Imported dogs from the West are becoming more popular than local dogs. Different types of mixed dogs are born from crossbreeding with imported dogs from the West.
