Independence and Unwavering Loyalty: Jindos are renowned for their unfaltering devotion to their families. Due to the strong bonds they form with their human owners, they become very protective of those they care about and their area.

Jindos are very bright canines with great analytical and problem-solving ability. They have a remarkable capacity to learn and adjust to new circumstances. Training them to create limits and desired behaviors may need patience and consistency due to their intelligence and independence.

Jindos are inherently vigilant and possess a heightened state of attentiveness. They are great watchdogs because they pay close attention to their environment. An powerful deterrent against possible invaders, they possess a strong urge to protect their family and property.

A high prey drive is a hallmark of the Jindo breed, which originated from its use as a hunting dog. They could be territorial or have an innate tendency to chase after tiny creatures. They may learn to control their play drive and behave appropriately among other animals and pets with early socialization and training.

Jindos are renowned for their impeccable cleanliness and excellent grooming skills. They are inherently clean canines with very little smell. Their weather-resistant double layer effortlessly sheds dirt and debris. However, in order to control shedding and keep their coat healthy and looking good, they do need to brush it often.

Jindos are quite tolerant of a wide range of weather conditions, demonstrating their climatic adaptability. In colder areas, their double coat keeps them warm, while in warmer ones, it protects them from the heat. But even in the worst of weather, they should be able to find shelter, drink water, and a nice place to be.

Interactions with Strangers: Jindos are known to be wary and quiet when they first meet someone new. They could be reserved or distant when they meet new people. They may learn to be more confident and polite in a variety of social settings with regular and early socialisation.
