I'd point you in the direction of Innova, Nutro, and Canidae brand dog foods. I've used Canidae, it's a very very good food. Nutro and Innova aren't avaible in my area but a lot of Akita breeders and owners I know swear by it.

I'd pick up a squirt bottle and fill it with 1/4 vinegar, 3/4 water and give him a squirt in response to growls. As I stated in earlier posts, this is dominance agression. I do not put up with my dogs growling at me for any reason. As far as your do...
