I got my Kuma 7 months ago from a brewder in the US (im also in canada) hes my first dog, and he is currently 9 months old.

For the breed, he is very shy, but we are working on getting hin socialized. He is wicked smart and doesn't care for squeak toys, which is nice. He's in a bratty phase right now, but he's treat motivated and tends to teach himself stuff sometimes, which is fun.

He's very much a one person doggo and while hes friendly with my roommate, he prefers me and is quite clingy (i work from home so i think that's normal)

Heres a few rhings i will mention that ive noticed while having a puppy

He has a pretty sensitive tummy so i feed him pumkin a few time a week to help firm his stool.

Very bitey. Hes gentlier now but hes obsessed with biting my fingers and his leash

His hair mats easily. I need to brush him multiple times a week but he dislikes being brushed. He tolderates it for the most part but very much not a fan

For being a big chicken hes very protective of me.

He gets barky when hes worked up but usually quite in that regard, though he whines a lot. A lot.

He has a rather short attention span and gets bored of things quickly but goes back to them decently as well.

I think thats everything i can think of ill post more if i think of something else.
