Jindos often display intense loyalty to their owners and families. They are an active breed that thrives in a stable environment, filled with positive reinforcement and enriching activities. These unique qualities make them very appealing to dog lovers who like the novelty of owning a rare breed, but may not have the experience required in handling the challenges of raising a primitive dog.  This has resulted in many Jindos being abandoned or surrendered to local animal shelters, where they are often misidentified and overlooked. Despite being a National treasure in their homeland of Korea, they remain relatively unknown in the States.
