Basic Description: The Kishu Ken is an ancient Japanese breed dating back before recorded history, and it predates both the Akita and the Shiba. It is a mid-sized dog of classic Japanese type. It is said the Japanese wished to create the perfect dog and the Kishu Ken was the result... pure white in color and extremely clean, highly intelligent, loyal, faithful, and an excellent hunter. The Kishu Ken is a hunting dog, originally bred to hunt boar and deer. They have become home companions now that hunting for food is no longer necessary, but the hunting instinct is still very strong in the breed. They have a high prey drive and should be raised from puppies with any other animals in the home, such as cats or smaller dogs.
