What is the difference between Akita and Shiba Inu?

First of all, you can distinguish the Akita from the Shiba Inu in terms of size. The Akita, like the Doberman, is a medium-sized dog with a large body; the Shiba Inu, like the Husky and Samoyed, is a medium-sized dog with a smaller body, almost half the size of the Akita. Therefore, the most intuitive difference between Akita and Shiba Inu is the size of their bodies. Secondly, you can distinguish the Akita and Shiba Inu from their head details. The Akita has an inverted triangular head shape, while the Shiba Inu has a rounded head shape; the Akita has large, round eyes, while the Shiba Inu has small, oval eyes; the Akita has a wide mouth, while the Shiba Inu has a long, thin mouth.
