Yes, my Kishu Ken does the same thing. They really take their time assessing new people, almost like they're evaluating if someone is worthy of their attention. It's funny to watch them staring, tilting their heads, as if they’re deep in thought. Once they decide you’re interesting, they’ll warm up and become quite affectionate. This breed is known for being a bit reserved, but they have a playful side once they feel comfortable. I think it's part of their independent nature.

answer · Kishu

Yes, I would choose a Kishu Ken again. Their strong personalities are a joy to deal with. They can be quite stubborn, but that’s part of their charm. Every day with them is an adventure!

Is it just mine, or are Kishu incredibly independent?

question · Kishu

My vet told me not to rush introductions with strangers. Did you hear the same advice?

answer · Kishu

I’m cautious with my Kishu off leash. They have a strong prey drive, so it depends on the environment.
