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.

Hawaii is a wonderful place for all people and their dogs—and that’s why it’s a bit complicated to bring a dog into the state. Health laws mean you’ll need to do some paperwork with your veterinarian before visiting. It’s worth it! Swimming, paddleboarding, boating and mountain hiking all await the two of you in beautiful Hawaii. Tackle the 1871 Trail at Pu'u O Honauna National Historic Park, or splash around in the waves under the sun at one of the state’s many dog-friendly beaches, including Dog Beach at Honokohau Harbor. When it’s mealtime, check out one of the state’s many delectable dog-friendly eateries, such as Greek Marina and Barefoot Beach Café.
The extinct Hawaiian Poi Dog guarded children—and was also baked and eaten.
