The Shikoku is a medium-sized Japanese breed known for its loyalty, intelligence, and hunting prowess. Originating from Shikoku Island, these dogs were bred for hunting wild boar and are characterized by their spitz-like features, including erect ears and a curled tail. Shikokus are energetic and alert, making them excellent companions for active owners. They require consistent training and socialization due to their independent nature, but they form strong bonds with their families.

Alaska is home to some of the great natural wonders of the world, and thanks to its dog-friendly culture, you can experience many of them together with your dog! Hike the trails at the Far North Bicentennial Park in Anchorage, or the Tongass National Forest in Juneau. Your dog will also love spending an afternoon at Connor’s Bog Dog Park in Anchorage, or at the Lake Lucille Dog Park in Wasilla. If you haven’t brought your own dog with you on an Alaskan holiday, look into special hiking (or sledding) excursions with cold-weather Huskies!
