Make sure your Akita is comfortable. When you leave her during the day, she should have a place to go in your home. It should be a place that is just for her. You want to have a safe and comfortable kennel with toys, treats and blankets in it. Remember that if you put her in a kennel that is not comfortable, she will bark.
