Curly-tailed dog (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

akita

'curly-tailed dog' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for akita that I've seen before include "Japanese breed of dog" , "heavy brute?" , "dog from Japan" , "powerful dog" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, the Newsday and The Wall Street Journal.
