Kishu Ken

The Kishu Ken is a Japanese breed of dog known for its loyalty and affection towards its family. They are friendly, quiet, and calm, yet tough and agile, making them excellent hunting companions. Their strong prey drive and instinct to stalk rather than bark make them adept at hunting boars and deer. Known for their intelligence and athleticism, Kishu Kens excel in agility, rally, and obedience competitions. They are generally good with other dogs if socialized properly and can be good with children if raised with them. Early socialization is crucial due to their natural suspicion of strangers and other dogs.
