Jindos typically weigh between 30 to 50 pounds (14 to 22 kg) and stand about 18 to 24 inches (46 to 61 cm) tall at the shoulder. Males are generally larger than females.

Jindos are known for being loyal, intelligent, and independent. They can be reserved with strangers but are affectionate with their families. They are often described as courageous and alert, making them good watchdogs. Early socialization and training are important to ensure they develop good manners and become well-adjusted companions.

The Jindo has a double coat, consisting of a dense undercoat and a coarser outer coat. The coat can be various colors, including white, brindle, black, and tan, among others. Regular grooming is necessary, especially during shedding seasons.

Jindos thrive in homes where they can have space to exercise and explore. They do best in environments that allow them to be active and engaged but may not do well in small apartments without enough stimulation. Their independent nature means they can handle being left alone for moderate periods but require regular interaction and activity.

Jindos are energetic dogs that enjoy a variety of activities. Recommended activities include:

• Daily Walks: Regular walks help meet their physical and mental exercise needs.
• Playtime: Interactive play, such as fetch or agility training, keeps them stimulated.
• Mental Challenges: Puzzle toys and training sessions can help keep their minds sharp.
• Hiking and Outdoor Adventures: Jindos enjoy exploring outdoors and can be great hiking companions.
