Jindo Dog Breed

The Jindo emerged as a breed on an island off the coast of South Korea. They are devoted, vigilant, and smart. Medium sized and naturally beautiful, they are prized as independent hunters, perceptive guardians, and devoted friends.

The Jindo is a medium-sized, well-proportioned dog breed that is employed for both hunting and guarding. It should be a striking representation of agility, strength, awareness, and dignity, with upright ears and a rolled or sickle-shaped tail. The Jindo is bold, fearless, vigilant, and careful, and they don’t give in to temptation easily or impetuously. They also have a very great instinct for hunting. What matters most, he is incredibly devoted to his master.

Males measure 19 to 22 inches in height, while females measure 17 to 20 inches. Dogs have an usual weight range of 40 to 50 pounds, while bitches are in the 30 to 40 pounds range.

Generally speaking, Jindos are a long-lived breed with minimal recognized health problems. Jindos typically live for 14 years or longer, and the majority lead active, healthy lives. There are just a few health problems associated with the breed that need to be taken into consideration, including hypothyroidism and discoid lupus.
