Go back to the breeders of your bitch, they are the best people to advise you (if they are knowledgeable & reputable, of course), or contact the Akita Club - [http://www.the-kennel-club.org.uk/index.asp?section=discoverdogs/ddframe.asp?mainpage=/discoverdogs/utility/u919.htm.
Hopefully, your bitch is over 2 yrs old, has been eye tested & hip scored & has an exemplary temperament.
