Which dog breed, Anglo-Français de Petite Vénerie or Kishu, is a Japanese breed of dog, developed there for thousands of years?
Kishu The Kishu (紀州犬 , Kishū-Inu ) , sometimes called "Kishu Ken" or "Kishu Inu", is a Japanese breed of dog, developed there for thousands of years. It is descended from ancient medium-sized breeds and named after the Kishu region, now Mie Prefecture and Wakayama Prefecture. This breed is similar to the Hokkaido, Shikoku and the Kai Ken. Sometimes it is mistaken for the white variant of Hokkaido because of very similar appearance. The Japanese originally used this breed of dog for boar and deer hunting. Like the Shiba, they are often quiet. Kishu will stalk prey quietly rather than bark.
Cocker Spaniel Cocker Spaniels are dogs belonging to two breeds of the spaniel dog type: the American Cocker Spaniel and the English Cocker Spaniel, both of which are commonly called simply "Cocker Spaniel" in their countries of origin. In the early 20th century, Cocker Spaniels also included small hunting Spaniels.
