The Crimson Desert is home to a variety of dogs, and none are as elegant and stubborn as Jindo, who looks extremely like the classic Shibu Inu, the internet's favorite dog (besides golden retrievers). If you are looking for Jindo, we have their locations here.
Jindo is found in Hernand Town, and should be fed sweet potatoesbut that's not all. If you're looking for the exact map locations and how to get each variant of Jindo, check out the guide below.

Jindo location in the Crimson Desert
- Jindo is located in Hernand Townwhich is just south of “D” in “Hernand” on the map.
- There are three varieties of Jindo: White Jindo, Black Jindo and Brown Jindo.
-
Each of these coats has a random chance to spawn either at the big tree in Hernand Town or at the tannery and stables just outside of Hernand Town.
-
If you can't find Jindo or the specific cloak you want, revive the area by using fast travel on the Abyss Nexus, and after a few tries you should get one of the Jindo robes mentioned above.
Jindo favorite food & how to tame in Crimson Desert
- Jindo's favorite food is sweet potato, which gives +35 Trust.
-
You can buy sweet potatoes from the Gorcer Shop in Hernand Town and in other towns.
-
If you're short on sweet potatoes, feel free to use Small Bones and Large Bones instead, which give +25 Trust.
-
You can feed these items to Jindo simply by dropping them from your inventory in front of the dog, and after it eats them, the trust meter will go up.
-
When Trust reaches +100, you can press Square/X to “take in” the dog and adopt it as a pet.
If you encounter a Jundo named “White Dog”, then that specific variety prefers Tender Meat, which can be purchased from the butcher in Hernand Town.
There are so many pets, and Jindo is just one of them. Click on these guides to see where some other interesting pets are: Abyss Heuklang Cat, Phoenix, Kitten and Huskies.
