About Jindo Dogs

Jindos are Korean national treasures, medium-sized spitz-type dogs known for their unwavering loyalty, intelligence, and clean habits. They are fastidious self-groomers and naturally housebroken. Their pricked ears, curled tail, and alert expression reflect their watchful nature.

Adopting a Jindo means gaining a deeply loyal, one-family dog who bonds intensely with their primary person. They are quiet, clean, and dignified in the home. Their independence and strong instincts mean they do best with experienced owners who understand primitive breeds.

Adopting in Tacoma, WA

Tacoma's stunning Puget Sound views and revitalized waterfront make it a wonderful city for pet adoption. Local shelters and Pierce County rescue groups have many animals ready for loving homes in this city with real character.

With Point Defiance Park - one of the largest urban parks in the country - waterfront trails, and a creative community that embraces pets, Tacoma offers adopted animals a beautiful Pacific Northwest life.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

35°F to 46°F

Dec – Feb

Mild temperatures but persistent rain and overcast skies define Tacoma winters. A waterproof jacket for your pet and rain gear for yourself are essential for daily walks. Point Defiance Park remains beautiful even in winter, and the forest canopy provides some shelter from rain on trail walks.

Spring

38°F to 60°F

Mar – May

Rain gradually decreases and temperatures warm, bringing the Pacific Northwest to life. The waterfront trails become increasingly pleasant as sunshine returns. Muddy trail conditions persist into April, so plan for post-walk paw cleaning after forest walks.

Summer

52°F to 78°F

Jun – Aug

Dry, sunny days with comfortable temperatures make summer the best season for outdoor pet activities. Point Defiance Park and the waterfront trails are at their absolute best during these months. The cool Puget Sound climate means heat stress is rarely a concern for pets.
