The director Quentin Tarantino stars in the middle of this crazy Japanese Ad for Softbank Mobile Company.
The Dog’s breed is Akita, according to Nicole from dogster it is a Shiba Inu, and knows how to speak .
However, Brad Pitt has already appeared in Softbank TV spots, so one must think that the main reason for Tarantino’s performance is a huge fee.
Mega LOL.

The dog in the commercial is not a Akita, it is a Shiba Inu, they look close but the shiba inu is a smaller version of the akita breed.
Thank You Nicole.
BTW, you are the very first comment in this blog
Tbh, might not even be a Shiba. These dogs are both bigger (two dogs share the role) than your standard-sized Shiba. Cream is a less common color for Shibas as well, though it’s not exactly rare.
My money is on either Kishu Ken or Hokkaido Ken, which are considered “Shika Inu,” medium-sized native Japanese breeds. The smallest native breed is the Shiba, then there are the four medium sized breeds: Hokkaido, Kishu, Kai, and Shikoku, then lastly the Akita.
I’m owned by two Shibas and have met a few Kai and Japanese-style Akitas (American Akitas tend to be, though are not always different). Hoping to import a Hokkaido someday.
