Gentle and loyal, and passionate in every matter. Kotani is found acting like an overgrown puppy most of the time, not afraid to roll around and play games. However when providing for or teamed up with his handler, he is focused and channels his energy into doing his best, be it hunting or traversing the difficult terrain. He enjoys life to the fullest and meets every day with a smile on his face and a spring in his step. Meeting his handler as a pup contributed towards a stable foundation for their friendship and developed into an inseparable bond.
