The Korean Jindo: A Complete and Comprehensive Owners Guide to: Buying, Owning, Health, Grooming, Training, Obedience, Understanding and Caring for Your Korean Jindo

The Korean Jindo is a breed of hunting dog that originates from the Jindo Island, which is located in South Korea. The breed is celebrated throughout South Korea for having an extremely brave and loyal nature. The Korean Jindo was traditionally used for hunting purposes due to its courage, intelligence and pack sensibility. The breed was normally used to hunt medium to large sized game, such as deer and boar, but there is actually a South Korean legend that tells of how three Korean Jindos killed a Siberian Tiger during a hunt! Despite this legend seeming unrealistic, there are multiple reports of Korean Jindo killing deer or coyotes without the knowledge or direction of their owners. During a hunt, a pack of Korean Jindo will use their combined strength to take down the prey and then will send a single Jindo back to the hunter to lead him to the prey. The Korean Jindo is a breed of double coated spitz-type dog. The breed is split into two typing: Tonggot (which have a more muscular body) and Hudu (which have more slender and agile bodies). The breed’s coat normally comes in white, fawn, grey, black and brindle. The temperament of dogs is normally affected by the following factors: individual personality, heredity, training and socialization. It is therefore important to make sure that you meet the puppy’s mother before purchasing a Korean Jindo. It is also important to make sure to thoroughly socialize your Korean Jindo with strangers, children and other animals during its puppyhood. Generally speaking, the Korean Jindo is an incredibly energetic, affectionate and loyal breed of dog. It is important to note that when keeping a Korean Jindo it is important to have a fenced garden (a fence of at least 6ft is recommended), as the Korean Jindo is likely to explore its surroundings due to its innate hunting instinct. It is important to note that as a working breed, the Korean Jindo has a high amount of energy which needs to be expended. If the Korean Jindo has a buildup of energy it is likely to develop destructive behaviors due to boredom or hyperactivity.
