In the medium class, there is a great deal of overlap in terms of size, color, and type, although certain colors are associated more commonly with one breed or the others. For instance, the Hokkaido is most commonly red with urajiro (cream to white markings on the points) or white; the Kyshu, white; the Shikoku, sesame; and the Kai, dark brindle. THE HOKKAIDO
