Shikoku

Descripción

The Shikoku is a loyal and sensitive companion, fiercely devoted to their chosen people. With a primitive alertness honed from their history as Japanese hunting dogs, they survey their surroundings with intelligent, discerning eyes. While not overtly demonstrative, they form deep bonds, expressing affection through quiet presence and a willingness to work alongside their human. Their independent spirit means training requires patience and consistency, but this dog thrives on challenges, whether it's navigating a hiking trail or mastering a new dog sport. They can be reserved with strangers, always assessing before offering trust, making them excellent, watchful guardians of the home.
