It's new and clean. You can see different Akita dogs every day, but there are also many customers who bring their dogs to play, so you can meet a variety of dogs😍

I fell in love with Akita because of the movie "Hachiko the Loyal Dog" so I went to see it. There is also a statue of Hachiko at the entrance. The dogs in the museum are very cute!
