Lucky-Charm the Akita / Border Collie mix breed dog at 8 years old—"Lucky is the smartest most loyal dog we have ever had. He is the kind of dog that helps with the kids. He is a nanny, although he prefers not to play with them and just watch them. He picks up after them and never lets anyone near them unless we, one of the pack leaders, is there. Lucky understands English, Spanish, Japanese and Thai."

Description

The Border Akita Collie is not a purebred dog. It is a cross between the Border Collie and the Akita. The best way to determine the temperament of a mixed breed is to look up all breeds in the cross and know you can get any combination of any of the characteristics found in any of the breeds in the hybrid. Not all of these designer hybrid dogs being bred are 50% purebred to 50% purebred. It is very common for breeders to breed multi-generation crosses.
