I love the Korean Jindo dog breed because they are the cutest/most beautiful dog breed they are always and really loyal and protective of their stuff and family/owners.

Had my puppy for 3 months, and I love her. Only down side is trainability as mentioned here, but still definitely worth the good side.

Love my Jindo. He's very loyal, clean. My Jindo gets along great with my cats but he was rough at first. Daily walks are a must! High prey drive. On a walk in the woods, he snatched a chipmunk that dashed by and gave it whiplash. No F's given.
