Opinions on Kai Ken.

AustinJS1996

I would just like to know everyone's opinion on the Kai ken. Good or bad I would like to hear it.

I would also like to know some training tips. Any and all
What do you feed your dogs?
How much do you feed them?

Also I would love to hear a few stories, if anyone wouldn't mind sharing.

My threads for Ren (Kai) and Genko (Hokkaido) have a lot of information and stories of things that they've done We just took a cross country trip from FL to OR to pick up Genko and move. Kai are absolutely great dogs, and if I hadn't gotten a Hokkaido then I would have gotten another Kai in a heart beat

As for food, I rotate different brands/flavors for every bag of food that Ren goes through. She has a solid stomach and only throws up when she hasn't eaten enough, at which point she'll vomit up a bit of bile. That usually only happens on a day when she has one large meal, but work or something else may have kept me from getting that meal taken care of. I don't measure it to be honest... I just eyeball it lol. She's runway model thin though, and she eats a lot.
