Adopting a Kishu Ken

Frequently asked questions about acquiring an Kishu Ken - the pros and cons of adopting versus going through a breeder, and associated costs.

The easiest way to adopt a Kishu is through a rescue that specializes in Kishus. A great place to start is by creating a breed search on Adopt a Pet. The search will show you all the available Kishus in your area.

You can adopt a Kishu at a much lower cost than buying one from a breeder. The cost of adopting a Kishu is around $300 to cover the expenses of caring for the dog before adoption. In contrast, buying Kishus from breeders can be prohibitively expensive. Depending on their breeding, they usually cost anywhere from $1,200 to $2,000.

Kishu Ken fun facts

Fun Facts:

Kishus were originally bred for boar and deer hunting.

Kishus are extremely rare outside of Japan, with only a handful of breeders outside their native country.

When the Kishu breed began, 70% of the breed were non-white, but now white is the most commonly found color in the breed.
