Descripción

The Hokkaido dog forms an incredibly devoted bond, often becoming a steadfast "velcro dog" with their chosen person. Their fierce loyalty stems from centuries of working alongside Ainu hunters, and they approach life with a fearless, intelligent spirit. They’re independent thinkers and observant, missing nothing around them, which translates to a watchful, sometimes wary nature with strangers. Though playful and affectionate with their family, they possess a strong prey drive and need consistent, positive training from a young age to channel their considerable energy and sharp wit. Expect a dog who loves an adventure and thrives when given a job.
