What a Jindo wants! What a Jindo needs! To make it happy


Edit By:How To Pet
Q:Haha sorry about title guys..Anyhow I decided to adopt the 6 year old baby Jindo ! THANKS TO ALL THE PEOPLE THAT REPLIED EARLIER ( i dont know what could i have done without yall! Now the problem is..i have a 6'3 fence with a garden around it.. I have a pretty big backyard..but Im scared the lil pup is going to destroy all of it ..i cant put it inside becuase my moms allergice to some fur..but i dont want to chain it up because we have a gaezebo and if it jumps off it then it will hang itself .. so i dont know what to do!!! This is my 2nd time caring for a dog but my first in caring for a prideful one.. Could you help me think of a solution on where to put my Jindo and what my Jindo needs? Thanks alot yall

P.S Also with your solution put a name for this PUP..ill send u pictures of it when i get it!
A:He is going to be an outside dog?
A:i just dont get it,why get a dog if you already know someone is allergic???And there are not alot of things that get my blood boiling but CHAINING a dgo for any amount of time is WRONG,quickest way to get an agrressive dog...............
A:Referring to your title of "what a Jindo wants, what a Jindo needs" is to be part of its pack!!

Primitive breeds DO NOT do well as outside dogs that are cut off from their family (my bias is that no dog does, but this is beside the point). What is my experience you ask? I currently have a Shiba Inu (another primitive breed) and have raised Akitas (also a primitive breed). As stated to you in my reply to your earlier post, these dogs take A LOT of work and cannot be left out in a back yard, fence or chained (plus, it is cruel to leave a dog chained in a yard - many cities are now passing laws to prevent this).

Proper socialization and stimulation are KEY!!! Please, please, please ensure you can properly take care of this little doggie's needs before you take on the responsiblilty of Jindo ownership (or, should I say, being owned by a Jindo ) This includes making sure the dog can interact with you in your home, not be chained and get plenty of exercise. This dog needs plenty of time to interact and bond with you. Remember, you are adopting a 6 month old pup of a breed that is aloof and distrustful of strangers (aka not his original owner) - reassurance, patience, love and persistence will be key.
