Kai Ken

Introduction

Kai Kane is athletic and intelligent with a keen desire to hunt. Kai is an independent thinker and can form a strong bond with his family. They are excellent swimmers and climbers and are known to climb trees and swim rivers in search of sport. Kai has a different brindle coat that comes in three colors: Black Brindle (Kuro-Tora), Brindle (Chu-Tora), and Red Brindle (Aaka-Tora). The red brindle coat is the rarest of colors. Different colors and brittle patterns enabled the dog to blend into the mountain forests in which he hunted, hunting it against prey and predators in ancient times. The amount of brindle will vary from dog to dog as well as the brindle pattern. Most puppies are born completely black and as they age, their lives begin to emerge and will change for the first five years of their lives. At home, Kai Kane requires basic canine care. They can be housed in an apartment setting provided they receive regular exercise in the form of a leashed walk. Being a naturally clean breed, bathing should be limited to only getting dirty. Brushing is recommended, especially during blowing coats twice a year.

General Appearance

The Kai Ken body should be strong with typical features of Spitz dogs: pricked ears, a dense coat and a curled tail. Their head should be wedge-shaped with a long snout that measures the same size as the skull. They have a well defined stop. Their lips are dark in color and fit tightly. Their nose is brownish-black or black, while their small eyes are dark brown. Their triangular ears stand proudly on their head, on the side of the face. The neck should not be weak and should be wide enough.

The Kai Ken's body is moderately rectangular in shape, with a deep chest, medium tuck-up and firm, short back. Their powerful limbs are well-muscled, ending in rounded claws with hard, durable pads and black claws. Unlike many spitz breeds, Kai Kens have a tail that does not necessarily curl on their back, but can form the shape of a sickle. The tail fur is somewhat longer than the fur on the rest of the coat.

The Kai Ken's plush coat is one of its most recognizable features. Double coat provides significant protection from the external environment; Especially the soft, close-fitting undercoat. Any brindle coat color is acceptable, with the stripes becoming more prominent with age. Small patches of white may be acceptable.
